Why are no SV used in solution?

This is the state after around 60 seconds. I have the above SV viability, what would be the reason that i'm not seeing the CN0 ratios, or that the SVs are not being used for a solution?

Around 5 mins later, I have the following, but still am seeing many more sats than are used in fix, and not getting CN0 for some still.

Hi

Internally in the GNSS algorithm there are several threshold to involve or not a satellite in the PVT solution.

These thresholds can be modified:

CDB-ID 132 – GNSS Positioning CN0 threshold

CDB-ID 198 – GNSS Mask angle positioning

this means that also if a satellites is seen ... it isn't involved in PVT solution because its params are under a threshold.

Hope this helps

Regards

Francesco

Thanks for your answer, it's very helpful. Is there a reason that CN0 isn't being reported in the *GSV messages for the majority of these satellites? I see their elevation and azimuth but the SNR/CN0 field is very often empty.
