Yes, GPS (Global Positioning System) relies on a constellation of artificial satellites orbiting the Earth. These satellites transmit signals that allow GPS receivers to determine their precise location by triangulating the signals from multiple satellites. The system is essential for navigation and various applications across industries.
What else can I help you with?
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 the transmission media of GPS?
satellite signals
What is satellite write the difference between natural satellite and artificial satellite?
The difference is the same as in other contexts.* "Artificial" means that something was created by humans. * "Natural" means that it was NOT created by humans.
Can you name artificial satellite on mars?

What is a word that means an artificial object moving around earth?
There is no single word to describe such an object.
Name 5 types of artificial satellite Eg a spying satellite?

A small object in orbit around a planet is a?
Satellite. Satellites can be natural, like the Moon, or artificial like GPS satellites.
What is the name of the second satellite?

What has the author Alfred Leick written?
Alfred Leick has written: 'GPS satellite surveying' -- subject(s): Global Positioning System, Artificial satellites in surveying
How can the accuracy of the gps system be improved?
The easiest way is differential GPS like surveyors use. Add an artificial reference satellite on ground with receiver and calculates errors between its known location and GPS location. This can do mm accuracy even with just civilian CA code.
What is the definition of artificial satellite?
An artificial satellite is a man made object that orbits a planet or a moon.
How does gps calculate its positinon?
by satellite.
Why they are called satellites?
A satellite is an object that orbits another. Hence the earth is a satellite of the sun, and the moon is a satellite of the earth because they orbits those respective bodies. Artificial satellites (GPS, weather, etc) are man made objects that orbit another body (typically the earth).
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 is an artificial satllite?
A satellite is any object in orbit. An artificial satellite is specifically placed in orbit by human endeavor.
