Differential GPS (DGPS) is an enhancement to GPS that improves location accuracy from 15 meters to 10 centimeters. It works by using fixed, ground-based reference stations that broadcast the difference between measured and actual satellite positions to correct GPS receivers locally. This allows DGPS receivers to correct their pseudoranges and improve accuracy. DGPS is useful for applications like tracking vehicles, shipping, and military operations that require precise positioning.

University of Management and Technology, Lahore Differential GPS • Normal GPS (Global Positioning System) is not accurate enough for the applications. For greater accuracy, a Differential GPS system will be implemented. • Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) is an enhancement to Global Positioning System that provides improved location accuracy, from the 15- meter nominal GPS accuracy to about 10 cm in case of the best implementations. Differential GPS
• DGPS uses a network of fixed, ground-based
reference stations to broadcast the difference between the positions indicated by the GPS satellite systems and the known fixed positions. Differential GPS • These stations broadcast the difference between the measured satellite pseudoranges and actual (internally computed) pseudoranges, and receiver stations may correct their pseudoranges by the same amount. The digital correction signal is typically broadcast locally over ground-based transmitters of shorter range. • The pseudorange (from pseudo- and range) is the pseudo distance between a satellite and a navigation satellite receiver—for instance Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers. Differential GPS • To determine its position, a satellite navigation receiver will determine the ranges to (at least) four satellites as well as their positions at time of transmitting. • Knowing the satellites orbital parameters, these positions can be calculated for any point in time. The pseudo-ranges of each satellite are obtained by multiplying the speed of light by the time the signal has taken from the satellite to the receiver. • As there are accuracy errors in the time measured, the term pseudo-ranges is used rather than ranges for such distances. Differential GPS • GPS systems have created the most accurate positioning systems in human history. • The system in your car knows when you come to the corner and which way to turn. But even with that precision, there are applications that would benefit from even more exact positioning measurements. • For example, a trucking company might like to know on which side of the street their vehicle is parked. That is where DGPS comes in. Differential GPS • DGPS uses a network of fixed, ground-based reference stations to broadcast the difference between the positions indicated by the satellite systems and the known fixed positions. • These stations broadcast the difference between the measured satellite and actual (internally computed) pseudo ranges, and receiver stations may correct their pseudo ranges by the same amount. • The digital correction signal is typically broadcast locally over ground-based transmitters of shorter range. Differential GPS • The military requires very precise measurements across their battle scene. • The DGPS receiver system run by the Indian US and Canadian Coast Guards that guides shipping, especially in harbor as they maneuver. • But other private users can find the increased accuracy useful as well. History of DGPS • Differential GPS (DGPS) is a relatively simple technique to improve positional accuracy and integrity.
• This technique was developed in the early 1980s,and
it is widely used in various forms. Rover • A rover is a survey tool used to receive signals from the satellite and a base station to calculate the grade. DGPS in Detail • DGPS is a method of improving the accuracy of your receiver by adding a local reference station to augment the information available from the satellites. It also improves the integrity of the whole GPS system by identifying certain errors.
• Differential GPS uses one unit at a known location
and a rover. –The stationary unit compares its calculated GPS location with the actual location and computes the error. –The rover data is adjusted for the error. DGPS in Detail • The stationary unit compares its calculated GPS location with the actual location and computes the error. • The rover data is adjusted for the error. • The underlying premise of differential GPS (DGPS) is that any two receivers that are relatively close together will experience similar atmospheric errors. DGPS in Detail • DGPS requires that a GPS receiver be set up on a precisely known location. This GPS receiver is the base or reference station.
• The base station receiver calculates its position
based on satellite signals and compares this to the known location. DGPS in Detail • The difference is applied to the GPS data recorded by the second GPS receiver, which is known. • The corrected information can the roving receiver. • Differential correction techniques are used to enhance the quality of location data gathered using global positioning system (GPS) receivers. • The corrected information can be applied to data from the roving receiver in real time in the field using radio signals or through post-processing after data capture using special processing software. DGPS Types There is two types of DGPS system. – Real-Time DGPS – Satellite Differential Services Real Time DGPS Satellite Differential Services Advantages • GPS is quite accurate; however, using DGPS pushes its accuracy even further. • Provide accurate data with in a minute. • DGPS helps to know perfect location on the earth and sea also. Limitations • The coverage area to take advantage of DGPS is limited. • To ensure greater coverage area more DGPS stations need to be added. • The position accuracy degrades as the separation between DGPS and aircraft GPS-Rx increases.
