1. A method of providing Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) position fix information, the method comprising:
receiving a request for the GNSS position fix information, wherein the request includes an accuracy requirement;
determining, from a plurality of GNSS bands available to a GNSS receiver, a set of GNSS bands to use to determine the GNSS position fix information based at least in part on the accuracy requirement, wherein the GNSS receiver has a plurality of receiver chains, each receiver chain for receiving one or more GNSS bands of the of the plurality of GNSS bands, and wherein each receiver chain is selectively activated or deactivated based on the set of GNSS bands so that the GNSS receiver is able to receive the set of GNSS bands;
determining the GNSS position fix information based at least in part on GNSS signals received via the set of GNSS bands; and
providing the GNSS position fix information, wherein the GNSS position fix information comprises a GNSS position fix, pseudorange information, or both.
