7.3 hoW GPS WoRKS

Each GPS satellite continuously broadcasts two signals: an SPS (Standard Positioning Service) signal

for worldwide civilian use and a PPS (Precise Positioning Service) signal for U.S. and Allied military

use. The SPS signal is a spread-spectrum signal broadcast at 1575.4 MHz. The signal is virtually

resistant to multipath and nighttime interference and is unaffected by weather and electrical noise.

All commercial and consumer GPS receivers are SPS receivers.

The SPS signal contains two types of orbit data: almanac and ephemeris. Almanac data contains the

health and approximate location of every satellite in the system. A GPS receiver collects almanac

data from any available satellite, then uses it to locate the satellites that should be visible at the

receiver’s location. Ephemeris data represents the precise orbital parameters of a specific satellite.

Receivers listen to signals from many satellites simultaneously and triangulate a position fix using

the interval between the transmission and reception of each satellite signal (a receiver tracks more

satellites than are actually needed for a position fix, so that if one satellite becomes unavailable, the

receiver knows exactly where to find the best possible replacement).

Three satellites are required for two-dimension positioning (which determines position only) and

four satellites are required for three-dimension positioning (to determine position and elevation).

7.3.1 Accuracy

In general, an SPS receiver can provide position information with an error of less than 5 Meters

and velocity information with an error of less than 5 Meters per second. For applications that require

much greater accuracy the effects of SA and environmentally produced errors can be overcome by

using a technique called Differential GPS (DGPS), which increases over-all accuracy.

7.3.2 WAAS

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), in cooperation with other DOT organizations and DOD,

is augmenting the GPS/SPS with a satellite-based Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS). WAAS

will provide a signal-in-space to WAAS compatible receivers to support en route through precision

approach navigation. After achieving initial operational capability, WAAS will be incrementally

improved to expand the area of coverage, increase the availability of precision approaches, increase

signal redundancy and reduce operational restrictions.

7.3.3 Differential GPS

Differential GPS (DGPS) uses a GPS receiver at a fixed point with a known position of sub-meter

accuracy. This is the control unit. The receiver collects data for all visible satellites and computes

predicted satellite ranges, which are compared with actual ranges. The difference is the satellite

range error, which is converted to correction signals for use by a roving receiver.

It is assumed that this correction will be the same for other GPS receivers that are in the same

area and are using the same satellites for positioning. If the correction is communicated to other

receivers in the area (usually by a beacon on the same site), the range error can be removed from

satellite signals and precise fixes calculated by these receivers.

It should be noted that not all data errors can be corrected in this way. Errors that are caused

by receiver noise (which is inherent in any GPS receiver) and multipath problems cannot be

eliminated with differential corrections. (Multipath errors occur when the receiver’s antenna “sees”
