Fundamentals - GPS Milestones

General information
Satellites
Today about 40 satellites are available (28 GPS and 12 GLONASS)
In 5 years about 80 satellites will be available
Frequencies
Today two frequencies are available
One tracked codeless with reduced tracking margin
In 5-8 years three frequencies will be available with full code tracking
Interoperability
There is coordination between GNSS operators to ensure
compatibility/interoperability (frequencies, modulation codes, coordinate
reference frames, timing reference)
Principle of
Operation
6
All GNSS systems are working on the same principles,
with minor differences.
8
Fundamentals - Principle of Operation
Travel time from the signal left the satellite until it is received at the
GPS receiver is measured.
By multiplying the travel time with the speed of light (300.000 km/s)
the distance can be computed.
Once you know the distance to each satellite, you need to know where
these satellites are in space.
Knowing the satellites position and distance to the user receiver, the
geographical position of the user receiver can be computed by
triangulation.
10
Fundamentals - Principle of Operation
4 unknowns:
latitude, Longitude, Height and Time offset
11
On the L1 frequency the C/A code is available and is used to identify the
individual satellites and for determine the range between the satellite and the
user receiver.
The C/A code is a so-called PRN code which is unique for each GPS satellite.
12
GPS Fundamentals - GPS Signal Characteristics
The time (GPS Receiver Time) for when the received satellite signal (t1) arrives is
compared with the time (GPS Satellite Time) for when the signal was transmitted
(t0) and thus the distance to the satellite can be determined.
The distance is a function of time difference multiplied with the speed of light (c).

GPS - GLONASS - GALILEO
System Characteristics
Systems consists of
three major segments:
The number of available GPS satellites varies around 27-29 due to longer lifetime than
expected.
The Glonass satellite service has not been able to provide a complete constellation due to lack
of satellite replacements and fundings. Glonass is said to be operational again in 2009
GALILEO is said to be operational in 2011.

Fundamentals - Galileo Control Segment
20 Galileo Sensor Stations (GSS) will provide the data, which will be
sent to the Galileo Control Centres through a redundant
communications network.
The GCCs will use the data of the Sensor Stations to compute the
integrity information and to synchronize the time signal of all satellites
and of the ground station clocks

Due to the errors in the range measurements they will not be determined as if
they were received correctly at the electrical center of the GPS antenna.
29
The sun spot activity goes in cycles of 11 years. 24th cycle starting early 2007
and peaking 2011
From time to time ionospheric disturbances will influence on positioning but with
less magnitude compared to what has been seen during the last few years.

Dual Frequency Solves Iono Delay Errors
Ionospheric Delay Errors are calculated from observing the time difference in the
received signal on the L1 and L2 frequency multiplied with speed of light.
33
A dual frequency GPS system, as the DPS 102 or 132 compensates automatically for the
ionospheric delay errors and thus, the dual frequency stand-alone GPS position
will be more accurate compared to a stand-alone single frequency GPS position.

GPS - Multipath and Blocking Effect
The horizon above the GPS antennas should be free of any obstruction
that might block the GPS signal.
Inmarsat
Low satellites
gives higher risk
for multipath

GPS - Multipath and Blocking Effect
A partly blocked satellite which is
SVS 12
far away from the other satellites
might cause big position jumps.
It can be necessary
to deselect the
satellite that cause
the position jumps.

C/A code has a wavelength of about. 300 m.
Carrier wave has a wavelength of about 20 cm
Code and carrier on the GPS signal
(not to scale, there are 1540 carrier
cycles in one code chip)
The problem is that the carrier frequency is hard to count because it's so
uniform. Every cycle looks like every other.
The pseudo random code on the other hand is intentionally complex to make it
easier to know which cycle you're looking at.

Galileo- Provided Positioning Services
The Open Service (OS) results from a combination of open signals, free of user
charge, provides position and timing performances competitive with other GNSS
systems.
The Safety of Life Service (SoL) improves the open service performances providing
timely warnings to the user when it fails to meet certain margins of accuracy
(integrity). It is envisaged that a service guarantee will be provided for this service.
The Commercial Service (CS) provides access to two additional signals, to allow for a
higher data rate throughput and to enable users to improve accuracy. It is envisaged
that a service guarantee will be provided for this service. This service also provides a
limited broadcasting capacity for messages from service centres to users (in the order
of 500 bits per second).
The Public Regulated Service (PRS) provides position and timing to specific users
requiring a high continuity of service, with controlled access. Two PRS navigation
signals with encrypted ranging codes and data will be available.
The Search and Rescue Service (SAR) broadcast globally the alert messages received
from distress emitting beacons. It will contribute to enhance the performances of the
international COSPAS-SARSAT Search and Rescue system.
