The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defense.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">US Department of Defense<\/a> (DoD) established the GPS project in 1973.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, despite launching its first model in 1978, GPS was not fully operational until 1993. Back then, the GPS satellite constellation consisted of 24 units.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, there are 38 satellites in the GPS <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Medium_Earth_orbit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">medium Earth orbit (MEO)<\/a> constellation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Albeit, only 32 of these satellites are fully operational. While the satellite constellation is a major part of the GPS, it isn\u2019t the only part. The main parts of the GPS include:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Satellite Constellation: Refers to all the satellites orbiting the Earth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ground Stations: Consists of various buildings with monitoring tools and control tools. They are there to track the activity of the satellites and ensure that they are fully operational. Ground stations are strewn across the globe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Receivers: User equipment that captures signals from the satellites. They come in all shapes and sizes. Small receivers are embedded in most modern smartphones. Hence, GPS is typically more well-known than GNSS, although both systems are somewhat connected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/skynetwave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1-3.jpg\" alt=\"Satellites orbiting the Earth\u00a0\" class=\"wp-image-4534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/skynetwave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1-3.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/skynetwave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1-3-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/skynetwave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1-3-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/skynetwave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1-3-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Satellites orbiting the Earth\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does GPS Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Satellites in a GPS orbit the Earth roughly every 11 hours, 58 minutes and 2 seconds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each satellite transmits coded signals containing the satellite\u2019s precise orbit details and a stable timestamp from its atomic clock.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While GPS satellites may vary in age and design, their main functionality remains unchanged.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The satellites transmit dual <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/L_band\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">L-Band carrier waves<\/a>.

We can then use receivers to capture these waves and translate their data.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Receivers usually have two main parts &#8211; an antenna and a processing unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0The antenna captures satellite signals while the processing unit interprets the data from the signals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the main functions of these receivers is to help us determine your current position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0The receiver uses their position in relation to at least three satellites.
