This book shows in a comprehensive manner how the Global Positioning System (GPS) works. The present edition accomodates the most recent advances in GPS technology. The concepts of GPS as well as the latest applications in surveying, navigation, and attitude determination are explained. Descriptions of project planning, observation, and data processing are provided for novice GPS users. The basic mathematical models for static and kinematic operations are fully developed. Special emphasis is put on the modernization of GPS, covering the new signal structure and improvements in the space and control segments. Furthermore, the augmentation of GPS by satellite-based and ground-based systems which is leading to future Global Navigation Satellite Systems is discussed. |
