Understanding GPS Technology and Applications
Presented by [Link]
INTRODUCTION
GPS is a space based radio positioning system It provides velocity and time information system It consists of 24 orbiting satellites 11,000 million miles away from the earth It can provide accurate position on the earth
HISTORY
It was developed by USDOD Doppler effect The first experimental satellite was NAVSTAR
FREQUENCIES USED
It operates at L band frequencies are L1-1.5GHZ L2-1.2GHZ L3-1.3GHZ L4-1.8GHZ L5-1.17GHZ
RECEIVERS
Radio receivers need to tune with more satellites. This interface with external device such as serial connections, USB. It receives signals from the TX satellites but do not transmit.
CALCULATING POSITIONS
Receiver measures the time delay between the TX signal & RX signal This delay is multiplied with speed of light give distance of satellite.
ACCURACY
It depends on 3 measurements [Link] time [Link] of satellite [Link] delay
APPLICATIONS
GIP (Geographical information system) GPS determines the location on the surface of the earth then GIP tell features of the object EARTH QUICK DETECTION The sate lights are arranged to visible from any point on the surface GPS measure the movements of the earths crust which will show where the strain is & finds where the earth earth quick faults on
MILITARY GPS allow accurate target of various weapons Most use of the GPS in military can be seen in jamming of any radio navigation system AGRICULTURE GPS is used for guidance of tractors & other large machines In farming the GPS includes the guidance of sprayers, fertilizers etc. NAVIGATION GPS used as a navigation aid in cars, airplanes & ships
VEHICLE TRACKING To detect the location of the vehicle ,person & records the position at regular and create a track file
MOBILE PHONE TRACKING It is similar to the vehicle tracking i. e what we want to tracking from mobile phone we can easy to use &setup in minute
CONCLUSION
It becomes more evident in society Increased its usage &expansion into new area of application Evergreen technology for many more years to come
