Receivers and Satellites
GPS units receive the signals from 34 GPS satellites (which have a much
better view of the Earth) to find out exactly where
they are on the global scale of things
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.
GPS Signals
The GPS receiver compares The GPS receiver compares the time and signal that was the time and signal that was transmitted by a satellite with transmitted by a satellite with the time it was received. The the time it was received. The time difference allows the time difference allows the GPS receiver to calculate its GPS receiver to calculate its position.
