A system for determining a position of a device, the system including a receiver module, a communication module, and a location determining module. The receiver module respectively acquires signals from a plurality of satellites totaling in number less than five. The communication module obtains, from a server, via a cellular network or a wireless network, ephemeris data corresponding to one or more of the plurality of satellites. The location determining module determines the position of the device based, at least in part, on (i) the signals acquired from the plurality of satellites, and (ii) the ephemeris data corresponding to the one or more of the plurality of satellites obtained from the server. The position of the device is further determined without a priori knowledge regarding the position of the device.
