GPS worldwide navigation

The US Government operates the GPS system. Twenty-

four satellites orbit the earth and broadcast position and

time signals. The positions of these satellites are

constantly changing. The GPS receiver analyses the

signals from the closest satellites and calculates exactly

where it is on earth. This is called the GPS position.

The accuracy of the GPS position is typically better than

10 m (33 ft) for 95% of the time. A GPS antenna can

receive signals from the GPS satellites when it is almost

anywhere on earth.

GPS antennas

TRACKERs 5500i and 5100i have built in GPS antennas;

TRACKERs 5500 and 5100 are usually connected to

the external GPS antenna supplied. All TRACKERs have

a sensitive 12-channel receiver built in. The receiver

tracks signals from all satellites visible above the horizon

and uses measurements from all satellites more than

5° above the horizon to calculate the position.

7 Satellites

DGPS

A DGPS system uses correction signals to remove some

of the errors in the GPS position. The TRACKER can

use one of two types of DGPS system:

WAAS and EGNOS DGPS

WAAS and EGNOS are two satellite based DGPS

systems. The correction signals are broadcast by

satellites and are received by the TRACKER’s

standard GPS antenna. The accuracy of the

corrected GPS position is typically better than 5 m

(16 ft) for 95% of the time.

WAAS covers all of the USA and most of Canada.

EGNOS will cover most of Western Europe when

it becomes operational about the end of 2003. To

enable WAAS and EGNOS DGPS, (see

section 13-3).

Differential beacon DGPS

Differential beacons are land based radio

transmitters that broadcast correction signals
