History Of GPS

GPS design is based partly on ground-based radio navigation systems developed in the early

1940’s that were used in World War II. These systems were named LORAN and Decca

Navigator and were focused on knowing where the enemy was so they could either attack or

retreat depending on the size of the forces.

Additional inspiration for modern day GPS systems came when Sputnik was launched by the

Soviet Union in 1957. A team of scientists monitored Sputnik’s radio transmissions and

discovered that because of the Doppler Effect, the frequency of the signal being transmitted was

high as the satellite approached and lower as it moved away. The Doppler Effect is the change

in frequency and wave length of a wave as it is perceived by an observer moving relative to the

source of the waves.

This team of scientists that was observing Sputnik’s radio transmissions soon realized that since they knew their exact location on the globe, they could pin point where the satellite was along its orbit by measuring the Doppler distortion. This was groundbreaking and very exciting for the

military at the time.

The United States Navy used the first satellite navigation system called Transit. It was first

successfully test in 1960 and was quite mind-boggling for everyone in the military. When the

Navy tested Transit, they did so hoping for some quite specific results. Using a constellation of five satellites, they found that the system could provide a navigational fix approximately once

per hour.

In 1967, the Navy developed the Timation satellite which proved the ability to place accurate

clocks in space. This is a technology that the GPS system relies on. In the 1970’s, the ground-

based Omega Navigation System, based on signal phase comparison, became the first world-

wide radio navigation system.

In February of 1978, the first experimental Block-I GPS satellite was launched into space and

the development of modern-day GPS systems began. These original satellites were initially

made by Rockwell International.

Now, the satellites we use for GPS are manufactured by

Lockheed Martin.

In 1983, Soviet interceptor aircraft shot down a civilian airliner flight KAL 007 as it flew in

restricted Soviet airspace. This heinous act killed all 269 people on board – all of whom were

civilians. Shortly thereafter, President Ronald Reagan announced that the GPS system would

be made available for civilian use once it was completed. Because of this horrible act on the

part of the Soviets, developed of the GPS system was stepped up more than it ever had been

before and experimentations began in earnest.

By 1985, ten more experimental Block-I satellites had been launched into space to validate the

concept of GPS and in 1989; the first modern Block-II satellite was launched. By December of

1993, the GPS system achieve initial operational capability and just a month later, a complete

constellation of 24 satellites were in orbit with full operational capability declared by NAVSTAR

in April of 1995.

A year after that, President Bill Clinton realized the importance of GPS to civilian users as well as military users which prompted him to issue a policy directive that declared GPS to be a dual-use system meaning civilian as well as military. He established an Interagency GPS Executive

Board that was responsible for managing GPS as an asset of the United States. the previous

examples going off in all directions. So instead of a series of circles, you get a series of spheres.

Advantage Of Using A Global Positioning Satellite System

The auto GPS system, or the vehicle global positioning system is a unique magnetic piece of

advanced technology that makes use of a regional map fed into the electronic guide and fitted

either on the dashboard of a car or under the carriage to act as a driver’s navigational aid when on the road. It gives directions to the destination point and how to best reach it safely, in time and with a choice of alternate routes, landmarks to cross and distances covered besides also

acting as an anti-theft device and helping the owner locate the vehicle if he’s forgotten where he parked it! Now, life doesn’t get better than that, does it?

Or, so you thought! Well, it just did! We modern day global citizens now have access to the

best, most advanced technology for GPS systems thanks to the initial experimentation by the

US military services that used the first GPS systems for tracking vehicles for the purpose of

national security and later developed a prototype suitable for the general public, which would act as a driver’s navigational aid based on the information it received from the satellite orbiting

space. A fast developing field of communication technology, the GPS system is based on the

principle of reliable information provided in flexible communication channels that are accurate

and up to date, thanks to constant navigation, surveillance and data capturing provided by GIS.

Conventionally known as the GPS NAVSTAR (Navigation Satellite timing and Ranging Global

Positioning System), the GPS system is a satellite-based navigation, timing and positioning

device that provides constant, multi-dimensional positioning round the clock to all parts of the

world.

Not only is the data accurate within a range of 100 meters of navigating from the GPS system,

but it also allows for exact meter level of mapping (right down to the millimeter level), which is essential for knowing geodetic positioning. This cutting-edge traveler’s best tool and mate

affords immense scope for application of GPS technology through the compact and magnetic

box that is the receiver device for a large world community of GPS users: it works on the

principle of sending a signal to space (to the satellite, which points the location of the vehicle back to the receiver) and thus providing directions to locating vehicle or destination point on a given radius/region. When a GPS system is mainly used for tracking automobiles, the purpose

is limited and so is the scope of the device, which allows for the signal to be transmitted from

the GPS device to a comp with a software program that will show the exact location of the

vehicle on its monitor.

Such is the craze for the convenience of a GPS system that many top auto manufacturers are

offering their latest models of cars equipped with the device that has changed the way the world

travels today; GPS is easy, efficient and accurate and gets one out of a blind spot sooner than a wink with a simple click of the button, especially useful in unknown terrains – or so find drivers with little time to lose and lots of ground to cover!

Global Positioning Satellite - New-age Tracking Technology

GPS stands for World Positioning orbiters and is one of the most heady advancements in

bailiwick for some distinct reasons. GPS was developed by the Federate States Section of

Denial for soldier like applications, but it has quickly grown to state misused personally by the mundane mortal. GPS is a follower based pilotage system that utilizes the satellites we

individual dispatched into area for various uses. The corresponding satellites that furnish us

with television assist, cavitied assist, and hold reports can cook rail of where a vehicle is at any given group use their GPS systems to get trusty that when they are on a bungle, they are

dynamic in the paw directions as the GPS has been mature to be a piloting tool that mounts

directly on your car's dashboard. There are many distinct brands out today and can be an

extraordinary plus when travelling.

A GPS system is also misused in new structure to path vehicles. For information, a truckage

consort may set GPS systems on all of their trucks so they can prepare cross of where their

trucks are at any moment. This can meliorate amend efficiency and locate deed times to within

minutes. It can also better them devise fitter motion routes that can save gas and meliorate on

the traveling done by the truckers.

The conclusion of GPS systems to the pandemic exoteric has brought around many assorted

uses. Car dealers use GPS systems to reject thieving during try drives. Plane unquiet parents

of teenagers can use a GPS group to donjon itinerary of where their vulnerable wood is and

flush where they get been.

One of the major things almost new consumer GPS systems is their ability to cell a log of where

the object has been previously as healthy as where it is presently. Several of these systems

can also line how the soul is swing that can be greatly salutary to those nervous parents when

they are discussing invulnerable and judicious swing habits with their teens.

GPS systems are also beingness utilized in law enforcement to hold cover of habitual offenders

that bonk eluded law in the late. Semiprivate investigators are also using GPS systems to work

extract downfield deceit spouses and acquire different fill they are work.

In unforesightful, a GPS method is a high tool that can ameliorate people in so more distance.

Protection companies start to ask observance too as they are providing discounts to insurance

holders who make vehicles transistorised with GPS systems. It would be a moral melody for

you to change out a GPS group and get one of your own!

How Does GPS Work?

When people talk about "a GPS," they usually mean a GPS receiver. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is actually a constellation of 27 Earth-orbiting satellites (24 in operation and three extras in case one fails). As we said in the section above, the U.S. military developed and

implemented this satellite network as a military navigation system, but soon opened it up to

everybody else.

Each of these 3,000- to 4,000-pound solar-powered satellites circles the globe at about 12,000

miles (19,300 km), making two complete rotations every day. The orbits are arranged so that at

any time, anywhere on Earth, there are at least four satellites "visible" in the sky.
