How do gps satellites monitor faults?
satellite equipped with radar
How accurate is satellite navigation compared to gps?
Satellite Navigation is just as accurate as GPS, having a 1-10 meter buffer zone. Both use a similar system, having satellites in orbit to triangulate a position. Satellite Navigation, better known as GLONASS, is used mostly by the Soviet Union while GPS, is use worldwide and the widest used system.
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.
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.
How does a GPS satellite work with a GPS device?
signals from at least 3 satellites send signals to and receive signals from the gps which are then triangulated to give the exact position of the GPS unit. Most GPS units are receive only. That is they must receive positional and timing information from the GPS satellite constellation. The internal processor them computes your position based upon this data(triangulation). Generally receiving data from three or more satellite's is needed to be produce a good fix (your position) but this is also dependent upon the geometry of the satellites. The best fixes are obtained when you have signals from three or more satellites which are geometrically separated by 45 degrees.
How much does a GPS weigh?
1 dam pound
How much does a satellite weigh?
1000 or 525 or 259
How does gps calculate its positinon?
by satellite.
Where can I find information about gps satellite tracking?
Here's a link to a website that offers a lot of interesting information to learn about GPS satellite tracking. http://www.edu-observatory.org/gps/tracking.html
What does a gps satelite do?
A GPS satellite emits a very precise and accurate time signal that the receiver can use to calculate it's distance from the satellite.
what does the phrase gps caddie meaN?
A GPS stands for Global Positioning Satellite and is a device which uses satellite location to determine your position. A caddie is a device which is a container or carrier for another item. As such, a GPS caddie is an item which holds a GPS.
What is a gps satellite's orbit type?
Geosynchronous
What is the transmission media of GPS?
satellite signals
Is GPS a type of special purpose software?
GPS stands for "global positioning satellite."
Can a satellite radio get gps signal?
No. The satellites used to distribute Sirius/XM "satellite" radio operate on frequencies assigned to Sirius/XM "satellite" radio. They don't operate on frequencies allocated to the GPS system.
Do Gps devices expired?
They never do unless the GPS satellite technology gets replaced by something else.
What kind of signal is used in a GPS satellite?
radio waves
