Global Positioning System (GPS)
One or two Global Positioning System (GPS) antennas are used with each Base Station. A GPS
antenna works with a constellation of satellites that orbit the earth, and it provides the ability to
pinpoint geographical locations. The two types of GPS antennas that may be ordered with a
Ripwave Base Station are the VIC 100 and the Motorola Timing 2000 (Figure 5).
