What else can I help you with?
What is the acronym for the system of US Department of Defense satellites which are used to establish exact locations on Earth?
GPS
How many satellites are used by gps?
32
Where are GPS satellite signals processed?
GPS signals are processed in the GPS unit and displayed, and they are also processed via three Global Position Satellites. All four units work together and process GPS signals (some to the satellites from the GPS, and some from the satellites to the GPS) to create an accurate position.
What is a function of a GPS satellite?
GPS satellites provide location and time information in all weather, anywhere on or near the Earth, where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites.
A system made of 25 satellites?
GPS
What is the acronym for the system of US Department of Defense satellites which are used to establish exact locations on Earth?
GPS
What kind of satellites are used for Global Positioning Systems?
GPS uses satellites that were placed into orbit by the Department of Defense. The government set up the entire network on their own, and it is free to use as long as you already have a GPS device.
What do gps satellites find?
GPS satellites do not 'find' anything, that is not their purpose.
What type of orbit is used by gps satellites subsynchronous or sunsynchronous?
Geostationary satellites are the ones used for GPS satellites.
How many satellites do you need to have a full GPS signal?
A minimum of 4 satellites is needed to obtain a full GPS signal. These satellites are used to triangulate your position accurately on Earth.
How many satellites are in the GPS array?
Currently 31 in both GPS and GLONASS (Russian navigation system, similar to GPS)
Who maintains GPS satellites?
The United States Space Force is responsible for maintaining and operating the GPS satellites. They ensure that the satellite constellation is functioning correctly and providing accurate navigation and timing signals to users worldwide.
How many satellites are in the GPS?
24 active with 6 spares.
How many satellites are used by gps?
32
What are two names of satellites?
GPS IIA-1 NAVSTAR 1 (Both GPS satellites)
How many satellites does Tom Tom GPS use?
Every GPS unit needs a minimum of four (4) satellites to compute a 3-dimensional position, and performs more accurate calculations with more satellites. I think my TomTom is capable of using 12 simultaneous satellites if it can see that many. Yours may be different.
Who paid to put GPS all into orbit?
Some telecommunication companies have paid and others were paid for by governments.
