Global Positioning System Presented by: Prateek Rastogi (05IT6013)
2
What is GPS? Global Positioning System. System to Identify the Position on Globe. Network Of Satellites.
3
Segments Of GPS The Space Segment The Control Segment The User Segment
4
The Space Segment Consists of 24 satellites in 6 orbits. Each satellites transmits low powered radio signals. GPS Satellite Name : NAVSTAR Altitude : 11,000 miles Inclination : 55 Deg to the Equator Weight : 863 Kg(in orbit) Orbital Period :12 hrs
5
The Control Segment A Master Control Station Unmanned Monitor Stations Large Ground-antenna Stations
6
The User Segment Users-Military and Civilians GPS Receivers Decodes the signals from Satellites. Calculate the distance.
7
Modes of Operation Standard Positioning System Data Transmitted on L1 Frequency For civil users Accuracy is degraded Precise Positioning System Data Transmitted on L1 and L2 Frequencies For Military users Highly Accurate HA=100m VA=156m TA=340ns HA=22m VA=27.7m TA=200ns
8
Signals from GPS Coarse/Acquisition- To determine Pseudo range 1023 bit long 1.023Mega-bits per sec P Code 2.3547*10^14 bit long 10.23 Mega-bits per sec Navigation Massage
9
Working Of GPS
10
How User Segment calculates the position?
11
Calculation of Position Satellites Location Almanac data Ephemeris Time is the essence Velocity * Time=distance
12
Determination of Position Trilateration
13
Sources of Errors Ionosphere Delays Troposphere Delays Clock Error Multi-path Error Relativity Error
14
Correction of Errors Error Modeling Mathematical Model Data Frequency Measurement Compare the Delays of L1 and L2
15
Applications Industry Agriculture Mapping & GIS Data Collection Public safety Surveying Telecommunication
16
Application Contd….. Military Intelligence & Target Location Navigation Weapon Aiming &Guidance Transportation Aviation Fleet Tracking Marine
17
Application Contd… Science Archaeology Atmospheric Science Environmental Geology & Geophysics Oceanography Wildlife
