A system and method which separates time critical interrupt driven processing of Global Positioning System (GPS) signals from non-time critical processing. A measurement platform performs all satellite tracking functions which are driven by interrupts. Intermediate measurements data generated therefrom, for example code phase, carrier phase and Doppler, are communicated to a user platform which computes receiver position and time. As a result, the user platform can easily be configured to perform user-specific processes without incurring conflicts with the interrupt driven processes occurring on the measurement platform.
