GPS determines your actual geographi-
cal position by the use of satellites. It is
based on 24 satellites which orbit the
Earth and emit signals. The GPS receiv-
er receives these signals and calculates
the distance to each satellite from the

running time differences and thus evalu-
ates its actual current position in terms
of geographical length and width. In or-
der to determine the position, signals
from at least three satellites are required,
and the fourth one allows the height to
be determined.

of up to 8 are acceptable for navigation
