3.  Fully-functional satellite navigation system  Orbiting navigational satellites › Transmit position and time data  Handheld receivers calculate › latitude › longitude › altitude › Velocity

4.  GPS provides specially coded satellite signals that can be processed in a GPS receiver, enabling the receiver to compute position, velocity and time.  At least 4 satellites are used to estimate 4 quantities: › position in 3-D (X, Y, Z) › GPS time (T)

5.  3D position  Navigation information › position › heading › velocity  Time

6.  A GPS receiver "knows" the location of the satellites. By estimating how far away a satellite is, the receiver also "knows" it is located somewhere on the surface of an imaginary sphere centered at the satellite. It then determines the sizes of several spheres, one for each satellite. The receiver is located where these spheres intersect.

8. GPS systems are made up of 3 segments :-  Space Segment (SS)  Control Segment (CS)  User Segments (US)

20. TThe user's GPS receiver is the US of the GPS system. GGPS receivers are generally composed of an antenna, tuned to the frequencies transmitted by the satellites, receiver-processors, and a highly-stable clock, commonly a crystal oscillator). TThey can also include a display for showing location and speed information to the user. AA receiver is often described by its number of channels this signifies how many satellites it can monitor simultaneously. As of recent, receivers usually have between twelve and twenty channels.

21.  Using the RTCM SC-104 format, GPS receivers may include an input for differential corrections. › This is typically in the form of a RS-232 port at 4,800 bps speed. Data is actually sent at a much lower rate, which limits the accuracy of the signal sent using RTCM.  Receivers with internal DGPS receivers are able to outclass those using external RTCM data.

23. The three parts of GPS are: SSatellites RReceivers SSoftware

24.  There are quite a number of satellites out there in space.  They are used for a wide range of purposes: satellite TV, cellular phones, military purposes and etc.  Satellites can also be used by GPS receivers.

25.  The GPS Operational Constellation consists of 24 satellites that orbit the Earth in very precise orbits twice a day.  GPS satellites emit continuous navigation signals.

26.  Each GPS satellite transmits data that indicates its location and the current time.  All GPS satellites synchronize operations so that these repeating signals are transmitted at the same instant. Physically the signal is just a complicated digital code, or in other words, a complicated sequence of “on” and “off” pulses.

27.  Position and coordinates.  The distance and direction between any two waypoints, or a position and a waypoint.  Travel progress reports.  Accurate time measurement.

29.  Satellite ranging › Satellite locations › Satellite to user distance › Need four satellites to determine position  Distance measurement › Radio signal traveling at speed of light › Measure time from satellite to user  Low-tech simulation

30. Pseudo-Random Code  Complex signal  Unique to each satellite  All satellites use same frequency  “Amplified” by information theory information theory  Economical

31.  Distance to a satellite is determined by measuring how long a radio signal takes to reach us from that satellite.  To make the measurement we assume that both the satellite and our receiver are generating the same pseudo-random codes at exactly the same time.  By comparing how late the satellite's pseudo-random code appears compared to our receiver's code, we determine how long it took to reach us.  Multiply that travel time by the speed of light and you've got distance.  High-tech simulation High-tech simulation

32.  Accurate timing is the key to measuring distance to satellites.  Satellites are accurate because they have four atomic clocks ($100,000 each) on board.  Receiver clocks don't have to be too accurate because an extra satellite range measurement can remove errors.

33.  To use the satellites as references for range measurements we need to know exactly where they are.  GPS satellites are so high up their orbits are very predictable.  All GPS receivers have an almanac programmed into their computers that tells them where in the sky each satellite is, moment by moment.  Minor variations in their orbits are measured by the Department of Defense.  The error information is sent to the satellites, to be transmitted along with the timing signals.

36. The earth's ionosphere and atmosphere cause delays in the GPS signal that translate into position errors. Some errors can be factored out using mathematics and modeling. The configuration of the satellites in the sky can magnify other errors. Differential GPS Differential GPS can reduce errors.

40.  GPS is a "constellation" of at least 24 well- spaced satellites that orbit the Earth and make it possible for people with ground receivers to pinpoint their geographic location.  The location accuracy is anywhere from 1 to 100 meters depending on the type of equipment used.  In coming years, it reduce into 1cm with DGPS ( which eliminates selective availability (SA) and provides a much more accurate determination of time and position).

41.  The system errors that are occurring during the time the receiver is operating. → The GPS system has several errors that have the potential to reduce the accuracy. → To achieve high levels of precision, differential GPS must be used.

42.  Differential GPS uses one unit at a known location and a rover. → The stationary unit compares its calculated GPS location with the actual location and computes the error. → The rover data is adjusted for the error. Real Time Kinematic (RTK) Post processing

59.  Satellite clock errors: Caused by slight discrepancies in each satellite’s four atomic clocks. Errors are monitored and corrected by the Master Control Station.  Orbit errors: Satellite orbits vary due to gravitational pull and solar pressure fluctuations. Orbit errors are also monitored and corrected by the Master Control Station. Good orbit two satellites

60.  The ionosphere is the layer of the atmosphere from 50 to 500 km altitude that consists primarily of ionized air.  Ionosphere interference causes the GPS satellite radio signals to be refracted as they pass through the earth’s atmosphere causing the signals to slow down or speed up.  This results in inaccurate position measurements by GPS receivers on the ground. IONOSPHERIC INTERFERENCE

61.  The troposphere is the lower layer of the earth’s atmosphere (below 13 km) that experiences the changes in temperature, pressure, and humidity associated with weather changes.  GPS errors are largely due to water vapor in this layer of the atmosphere. Tropospheric interference:

62.  Receiver noise is simply the electromagnetic field that the receiver’s internal electronics generate when it’s turned on. Electromagnetic fields tend to distort radio waves.  This affects the travel time of the GPS signals before they can be processed by the receiver.

63.  Multipath interference is caused by reflected radio signals from surfaces near the GPS receiver that can either interfere with or be mistaken for the true signal that follows an uninterrupted path from a satellite.  An example sources of multipath include car bodies, buildings, power lines and water. MULTIPATH INTERFERENCE

65.  Control Segment blunders › due to computer glitches or human error can cause position errors from several meters to hundreds of kilometer.  User mistakes › Incorrect datum and typographic errors when inputting coordinate into a GPS receiver can result in errors up to many kilometers. › A GPS receiver has no way to identify and correcting user mistakes.

66.  The human body › Holding a GPS receiver close to the body can block some satellite signals and hinder accurate positioning. › If a GPS receiver must be hand held facing to the south can help to alleviate signal blockage caused by the body because the majority of GPS satellites are oriented more in the earth's southern hemisphere.  Errors in GPS are cumulative › It is the user’s responsibility to insure the accuracy of the data being collected with the GPS.
