Positioning technology

Positioning by GPS
The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a
network of satellites orbiting the Earth.
Each of the satellites, which orbit at a
height of 68 900 000 feet (21 000 km),
continually broadcasts radio signals giving
time and position information. This
ensures that signals from at least three can
be picked up from any open area on the
ground's surface.
The accuracy of the GPS information
depends on how good the reception is.
When the signals are strong and reception
is good, GPS can determine latitude,
longitude and altitude for accurate
positioning in three dimensions. But if
signal quality is poor, only two dimensions,
latitude and longitude, can be obtained
and positioning errors are somewhat
greater.
Positioning by dead reckoning
The built-in sensor in the navigation
system also calculates your position. The
current location is measured by detecting
driving distance with the speed pulse, the
turning direction with the gyro sensor and
inclination of the road with the G sensor.
