Notebook computers with integrated satellite navigation systems

A notebook computer for receiving a SNS signal from a plurality of satellites and realizing a navigation function, comprising:

• a navigation device for receiving and processing said SNS signal for generating a PVT information signal;
• a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus coupled to said navigation device for transmitting said PVT information signal;
• a screen coupled to said PCI bus;
• and
• a CPU coupled to said navigation device via said PCI bus and for reading said PVT information signal to realize said navigation function and for generating an instance of detailed position information on said screen.

A method for realizing a navigation function of a notebook computer, comprising:

• receiving a satellite navigation system (SNS) signal from a plurality of satellites by an antenna of a navigation device integrated in said notebook computer;
• generating an IF signal according to said SNS signal by an RF chip of said navigation device;
• generating a PVT information signal by receiving and processing said IF signal by a CPU of said notebook computer;
• and
• displaying said PVT information signal on a screen of said notebook computer for realizing said navigation function.

A method for realizing a navigation function of a notebook computer, comprising:

• initializing a baseband chip of a navigation device which is intergraded in said notebook computer;
• receiving a GPS signal from a plurality of satellites by an antenna of a navigation device integrated in said notebook computer;
• generating an IF signal according to said SNS signal by an RF chip of said navigation device;
• generating a PVT information signal by receiving and processing said IF signal and outputting an interrupt signal to inform said CPU by said baseband chip;
• responding to said interrupt signal and reading said PVT information signal by said CPU;
• and
• displaying said PVT information signal on a screen of said notebook computer for realizing said navigation function.
