1-5 The background of GPS (Global
Positioning System)

1-5-1 GPS satellites:

GPS positioning system uses 24 satellites (21 plus 3 spare),satellite around the Earth
takes 11 hours 58 minutes. When all the satellites in their track,
accurate positioning anywhere in the world all the day.

1-5-2. Positioning principle

Your position can be calculated according to the distance of the two satellite-to-ship.
We Calculate the time of ships satellite signal to get the distance(300000 miles or
186000 miles per second). However, The clock signal is not synchronous between
satellites and GPS receiver in the actual using, So it need third satellite signal to
calculate your position..
Note:
1.the actual GPS positioning accuracy is decided by The United States defense
departmentt ,precision: RMS<15m.
2.The GPS which measure the latitude, longitude and altitude is the WGS-84,
standard benchmark all the world.
