Satellite Navigation The U.S. govt launched satellites that triangulate any spot on the globe and give your location if you have the device that receives their signal. For further clarification, GPS receiver units time a signal sent from a satellite and through the use of extremely accurate clocks, calculate the time it took for the signal to reach the receiver from the satellite. Knowing the speed that these signals travel allows the receiver to calculate a distance from the satellite which results in a line of position (LOP). Obtaining a minimum of three of these LOPs allows the receiver to accurately determine the receiver's position on the face of the earth. Having a fourth LOP will also allow the determination of the elevation, or height, of the receiver.
This is a device that uses satellites to pinpoint your location, and provide you with instructions to your routes. These come in different sized devices, from very small to rather large, easy to read dash mounted units.
From its name you can understand that it helps with - navigation. It is the basis of GPS (global positioning system).
The function of a navigation satellite is to provide direction for people who sail or fly. It will rely on GPS to give direction guidance.

Satellite is an artificial body orbiting the earth.
NASA technology has given us phones, GPS's and laptops from the satillite that is in space.

its the direction of which your going or headed
The correct spelling is satellite.
The function of a magnetic compass is to show the direction toward the magnetic poles of the Earth. It is used as a navigation tool.
Satellites used for Global positioning, send clock signals back to the earth, along with identity signals. The timing of the clock signals are very accurately controlled. The receiver uses the clock signals and by applying mathematical processes and comparing with an on board almanac, calculates the receiver's position. At least three signals from different satellites are required to fix a position. More signals then add to the accuracy.
