The operation principle and the structure of GPS Correlator were explained, and all the modules of the correlator were studied. The local C/A code loop generated three outputs: an early code, a late code, and a prompt code. Using the three outputs, the parallel correlation was developed and it improved the acquiring performance of efficiency and accuracy of the GPS receiver. All the schemes of GPS correlator were implemented by Verilog hardware description language and simulated under the environment of Modelsim software, then validated on the Xilinx VirtexTM-II Pro development board. The results demonstrate that the correlator can incorporate with microprocessor to realize the acquisition and tracking function of the GPS signal normall
