GPS uses a constellation of 24 satellites that continually
send radio signals to the earth. Your present position is
determined by receiving signals from up to 16 satellites
and measuring the distance from the satellites.
All satellites broadcast a uniquely coded signal once per
second at exactly the same time. The GPS receiver on
your boat receives signals from satellites that are visible
to it. Based on time differences between each received
signal, the GPS receiver determines its distance to each
satellite. With distances known, the GPS receiver
mathematically triangulates its own position. With
once per second updates, the GPS receiver then
calculates its velocity and bearing.
