5. GPS 24 satellites with a minimum of 21 operating 98% of the time 6 Orbital planes visible for approximately 5 hours above the horizon As few as 4 and as many as 12 in “view” at any time, any place

6. Mathematics in GPS x, y, z are the positions we are trying to locate T = the time error at the receiver x s, y s, z s are the satellite positions (calculated Es = a sum of all the modeling errors considered by the GPS (include tropospheric and ionospheric errors, clock errors from the satellite and any other error the GPS receivers thinks is significant enough to model) Prs is the approximate (pseudo-range) distance from the receiver to the satellite
