Swami SPORT GPS - Manual (Page 8)

About GPS
Global Position System (GPS) is a satellite system developed by the Department of Defense. GPS
consists of 32 satellites that circle the earth and are 11,000 miles away from the ground. These satellites
make two circles of the earth per day and emit signals of extremely low power which will be received and
recorded by 5 ground stations. These ground stations will use precise time signals to confirm accurate
position of each satellite. Your GPS receiver can “pick” signals sent out by the satellites. An accurate
latitude, longitude and height can be determined through calculation on positions and distances of at
least 4 satellites.
WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System) can enhance the precision of GPS. It is designed by the
Federal Aviation Administration and is mainly used to enhance precision of GPS on a plane. WAAS is
combined with extra ground station groups that were set up in the precisely located places. These ground
stations can work together with a master console so as to improve accuracy of satellite signals and reduce
errors to about 3 meters.
CAUTION
Global Position System (GPS) was developed and is managed by the United States Department of
Defense (DOD) and is responsible for its normal operation and position precision control; the U.S. is
entitled to affect function or position precision of the whole system without prior notification or
announcement based on its political considerations or national defense.
