Is a GPS system based on a constellation of four satellites strategically placed around the Earth?
No, for GPS to work there must be 24 operational satellites in orbit, with 12 of those above the horizon as seen from any point on earth.For a GPS receiver to get a latitude-longitude fix it must receive signals from a minimum of 3 satellites and to also get altitude it must receive signals from a minimum of 4 satellites. Each satellite that it receives above these minimums allows the receiver to get a more precise fix.
