1. An electronic device comprising:
a plurality of antennas;
a cellular transceiver configured to send and receive cellular signals via one or more antennas of the plurality of antennas;
a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver configured to receive GNSS signals via the one or more antennas; and
one or more processors configured to
receive a GNSS tune request to receive the GNSS signals via the one or more antennas at a GNSS signal frequency,
in response to receiving the GNSS tune request, receive, using the GNSS receiver, the GNSS signals via the one or more antennas at the GNSS signal frequency,
receive a cellular tune request to send or receive the cellular signals via the one or more antennas at a cellular frequency, and
in response to receiving the cellular tune request, deactivate the GNSS receiver, and send or receive, using the cellular transceiver, the cellular signals via the one or more antennas at the cellular frequency.
