71 Summary: Take-Away Points Satellite navigation systems exploit basic properties of radio waves: Transit exploited the Doppler effect, GPS exploits the known speed of propagation GPS is based on the old idea of trilateration, but implemented with the technology of the second-half of the 20 th century: space-based radio transmitters, ultra-stable clocks, and spread spectrum signals A GPS receiver measures pseudoranges to the satellites by measuring pseudo-transit times of radio signals. It takes 4 satellites (i.e., 4 pseudoranges) in order to estimate position (x, y, z) and time t With a clear view of the sky, it s easy to get positioning accuracy of several meters with a $100 GPS receiver, or relative positioning accuracy of millimeters with a pair of $1000 receivers. GPS satellites are 20-watt transmitters 20,000 km away, so the signals reaching the earth are very weak and, therefore susceptible to interference. The success and breadth of GPS applications is attributable largely to the chip. The VLSI revolution was well-timed for GPS 2013 Pratap Misra 71

77 2013 Pratap Misra Summary: Take-Away Points GPS is based on the old idea of trilateration, but implemented with the technology of the second-half of the 20 th century: space-based radio transmitters, ultra-stable clocks, and spread spectrum signals. The success and breadth of GPS applications is attributable largely to the chip. The VLSI revolution was well-timed for GPS. A GPS receiver measures pseudoranges to the satellites by measuring pseudo-transit times of radio signals. It takes 4 satellites in view (i.e., 4 pseudoranges) in order to estimate position (x, y, z) and time t With a clear view of the sky, it s easy to get positioning accuracy of several meters with a $100 GPS receiver, or relative positioning accuracy of millimeters with a pair of $1000 receivers.
