the satellites in question? Send to friends and colleagues. Knowledge is your reward. Set to have measurements done before Lec 2. With more
than 2, courses available, OCW is delivering on the promise of open sharing of knowledge. If a 3rd in 2-D satellite source doesn't intersect the first
"answer", the receiver applies correction factors to the time delays until it does, and thus the receiver becomes as accurate as an atomic clock for
the purpose of position location. The receiver can guess when the satellite transmissions were sent and use that guess to calculate an intersection of
lengths from the 2 satellites. Make a Donation Why Donate? We don't offer credit or certification for using OCW. Correcting errors with

triangulating position. In addition to the satellites themselves, DOD maintains various ground stations to uplink data to the satellites. Negative
feedback can adjust the 3-D trajectory of the missile and pinpoint it directly to a MIG on the runway. How do you make maps and what is
significance. Lectures 23 and 24 cover applications to tectonic problems Tools mentioned in last lecture and used to generate some of the figures.

seconds ago. Introduction to coordinate system definition and realization concentrating on geometric definitions SCO Web: Suppose satellite
photos have allowed the Air Force to pinpoint the longitudes and lattitudes of MIG fighter jets on the runway of the Herat airport in western
Afghanistan. Fieldwork in the circle. Note since the random number generator is not initialized, your results will differ from those in the class notes
Signal processing tool box is needed for the PSD calculation. Don't show me this again Welcome! In this class we look at solid-Earth tides, ocean-
tidal loading and other types of loading effects. Modify, remix, and reuse just remember to cite OCW as the source. The GPS signals being
processed at a classified sample rate in a cruise missile a Tomahawk, fired from a Navy ship or submarine hundred miles south in the Arabian Sea;
the missile flies close to the ground headed to Herat, can be compared to the Herat runway coordinates. Statistical approach to estimation PDF.
Statistical description of process noise in parameter values. A guess-timate about the transmission time of 9 seconds ago puts the receiver location
9 units away at DOD monitors the satellites with radar, from the ground stations, and compares its results to math programs that are calculating
trajectories in orbit. Potential fields and coordinate systems. Use OCW to guide your own life-long learning, or to teach others. Send to friends

Herat runway coordinates. Pseudorange and phase measurements. How can the receiver tell the distance to a satellite? Find materials for this
course in the pages linked along the left. The two program are Harmonics. Freely browse and use OCW materials at your own pace. GPS offers a
way for a properly equipped receiver to pinpoint its position on or a few miles above the surface of the earth. Because the position of the reference
is known, it can correct for all errors and send out corrections to all GPS within range. Class starts development of mathematical models needed
for precise GPS positioning. This is one of over 2, courses on OCW. Send to friends and colleagues. Suppose satellite photos have allowed the

it can add or subtract from all its measurements to make the extra satellite agree with the first 2 satellites calculation. Donate Make a Donation

notes are taken Send to friends and colleagues. This is one of over 2, courses on OCW. The two programs are Harmonics. It would have been
the case that your on-board clock was 1 second slower than the accurate clocks in the transmitters. Even simpler than 2D: GPS is not one satellite,
but Because of synchronized atomic clocks, a satellite can be sending out PRS pulses at precise time intervals. Need help getting started? We
examine the results from exercise 1 determination of the latitude and longitude of MIT campus. We also used some Matlab scripts in this
lecture. GPS was built sent into orbit? Lectures 23 and 24 cover applications to tectonic problems Tools mentioned in last lecture and used to

 where range differences have been converted to L1 cycles. DOD uploads the position as a function of time information to the satellites, which
include their position information in the broadcasts they send to earth. Yes, the receiver has to know the location in space of each of the 3
satellites, and that information is contained in the "signature" pseudo-random sequence, PRS pulse code sent down by each satellite. No enrollment

lecture notes what point in space matches that set of data. Use the theodolite to make the measurements. All range and phase units are meters
