Page 26: Using The Gps Function
Using the GPS Function The GPS Function GPS (Global Positioning System) is a space-based satellite navigation system that provides location and time information anywhere on the earth. It was developed by the U.S. Department of Defense as a military system. When the GPS receiver acquires 3 or more signals (of about 30) GPS satellites orbiting at an altitude of about 20,000 km, it can calculate and display its current position (latitude, longitude, and altitude) within a tolerance of several meters. - Page 27 About Positioning by GPS “Positioning” refers to calculation of your current position from the satellite orbit information and radio propagation time. At least 3 satellites need to be acquired for successful positioning. If positioning fails, move away from buildings as far as possible and stand in an area with open sky.
