Fundamentals of Global Positioning System Receivers: A Software Approach By James Bao-Yen Tsui Publisher: Wiley-Interscience Number Of Pages: 258 Publication Date: 2000-05-19 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0471381543 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780471381549 Binding: Hardcover Book Description: How to build and operate GPS receivers-a working resource for engineers While GPS receivers abound in numerous applications, much of the information on their design is scattered in disparate and hard-to-find places. This new work provides engineers who use and design GPS systems with a much-needed comprehensive reference on the operational principles guiding this important technology. With an emphasis on software-based signal processing-a cutting-edge approach expected to dominate future integration of GPS receivers into cellular phones-the book covers all aspects of receiver technology as well as the relevant navigation schemes. Concentrating on civilian C/A code used by commercial GPS receivers (rather than military code), Fundamentals of Global Positioning System Receivers: Describes GPS basics and the constellation of satellites that comprise the GPS system Examines in detail GPS signal structure, acquisition, and tracking Presents the mathematical formulas for calculating a user's position Illustrates the application of important equations using computer programs Explains how to build hardware to collect digitized data for a software GPS receiver Includes a chapter demonstrating a GPS receiver following the signal flow
Global Positioning System: Assessing National Policies By Scott Pace, Gerald Frost, David Frelinger, D. Fossum, D. Wassem, M. M. Pinto Publisher: RAND Corporation Number Of Pages: 390 Publication Date: 1996-01-25 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0833023497 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780833023490 Binding: Paperback Book Description: A comprehensive assessment of the challenges and opportunities created by worldwide access to this revolutionary technology. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a military space system operated by the U.S. Air Force that continuously broadcasts precise time signals. These signals can be used worldwide to aid position location, navigation, and timing. GPS is an information resource that supports a wide range of civil, scientific, and commercial functions as well as U.S. forces. National policy toward GPS has not, however, kept pace with the system’s rapidly expanding international uses. This study identifies major opportunities and vulnerabilities created by GPS for U.S. defense, commercial, and foreign policy interests, and makes recommendations for U.S. policy toward GPS, including future governance and funding. If the United States promotes GPS as a global standard, it should address the dual-use nature of the technology through international agreements. If the United States becomes an unreliable steward for GPS, it risks losing the economic and diplomatic benefits from past investments in this technology.
