    摘要: A positioning device has a reception unit for receiving navigation messages transmitted continuously in a time series from positioning information satellites orbiting the Earth and determines the location of the positioning device based on the navigation messages received by the transmission unit. Each navigation message is segmented into a plurality of data transmission blocks that are transmitted sequentially, a portion of the data transmission blocks carry almanac data containing orbital information for all positioning information satellites including the positioning information satellite transmitting the received navigation message, and the data transmission blocks carrying the almanac data are transmitted non-contiguously. The positioning device also has signal discrimination unit for identifying the start of receiving a data transmission block containing the non-contiguously transmitted almanac data, and identifying the end of receiving the data transmission block containing the almanac data. The reception unit intermittently receives the signals of the data transmission blocks containing the almanac data by receiving the navigation messages in the reception time of the data transmission blocks containing the almanac data identified by the signal discrimination unit.
