GPS Introduction

The GPS System was originally developed by the U.S. Department of Defense where the

primary use was to provide accurate position data for military applications.

This system consists of a constellation of 24 satellites which orbit the earth twice a day. Each

satellite accurately transmits its position and time data. All GPS satellites are synchronized so

that these repeating signals are transmitted at the same instant. The GPS receiver receives

these signals at slightly different times based on where the location of the satellite is. By using

this information the receiver can work out exactly its position from the satellites and can

achieve a position fix on the earth’s surface to within 1m.

Note: Please be aware that the GPS-1 is for VFR only. Please make sure that you

understand the instrument thoroughly before using it for navigation purposes

The GPS-1 and WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System)

The GPS-1 also supports WAAS. WAAS is a FAA funded project to improve the accuracy of

GPS receivers. There are 2 satellites in a geo-stationary orbit currently over North America

providing additional correction data. The GPS-1 receives these additional signals to make a

more accurate computation of position. Please see http:gps.faa.gov for more information.

Operating Screens

The GPS-1 has 6 individual display screens. There are 3 information screens, 2 navigation

screens and 1 menu system screen.

Satellite Signal Screen (Information Screen)

This screen shows information such as the number of

satellites used in the fix data, the fix type, the satellite PRN

(ID) number as well as the carrier to noise signal strength in

dbHz.

SkyView Screen (Information Screen)

This screen shows information such as the horizontal/vertical

accuracies, PDOP (position dilution of precision) and satellite

position relative to the current position and the fix type.

GPS Information Screen

This screen is useful to display position data when no route or

waypoint has been selected. It displays information such as a

bearing tape, altitude, ground speed and latitude and

longitude as well as time.

Primary Navigation Screen

This screen is your primary navigation screen when a route or

waypoint has been selected. Information such as waypoint

name, current heading, ground speed, distance to waypoint,

ETE (Estimate Time Enroute), as well as an arrow indicating

your direction to the selected waypoint is displayed.

Secondary Navigation Screen

This screen is your secondary navigation screen displaying

information such as waypoint name, current heading,

distance to waypoint, current ground speed, ETE (Estimate

Time Enroute), as well as your track and a CDI (Course

Deviation Indicator).

Menu System

Satellite Signal Screen

This screen shows the satellites carrier to noise ratio (Signal strength), PRN (ID) number as

well as how many satellites are used in the fix data.

The bars height represents the carrier to noise ratio in dbHz (Signal Strength). This value can

vary from 0 to 60 dbHz.

Skyview Information Screen

This screen is useful to determine the satellites orientation in relation to the GPS-1.

Satellite PRN Number and position

Fix type

The number of

satellites used in the

osition data. Shaded bars indicate that the

GPS-1 is still negotiating with

the satellite and this satellites

data is not yet being used for

a position fix.

Satellite PRN (ID) number

Solid bars indicate that

this satellite is currently

been used for the fix

data.

Description of items:

North Indicator: This is the direction of true north.

Horizon, 45 Degrees above horizon and directly overhead: These 3 rings show the

elevation of the satellite from the horizon (outer ring).

Horizontal Accuracy (HACC): This is a value expressed in meters (m) indicating what the

horizontal accuracy is of the position fix.

Vertical Accuracy (VACC): This is a value expressed in meters (m) indicating what the

vertical accuracy is of the position fix.

HDOP Value: This is a unit less value representing the horizontal precision of dilution. A

value of 1 indicates optimum satellite constellation and high-quality data. This value is shown

when the GPS-1 does not have a 3D Fix.

PDOP Value: This is a unit less value representing the position precision of dilution which is a

combination on the horizontal precision of dilution (HDOP) and the vertical precision of

dilution (VDOP). A value of 1 indicates an optimum satellite constellation and high-data

quality. This value is shown when a 3D fix is achieved. PDOP values in excess of 8 are

considered poor.

Note: A position fix with a PDOP of 30 could be as much as 150m from its true location.

Satellites that are dispersed throughout the sky will achieve low PDOP values while satellites

that are in a straight line will achieve a high PDOP value.

Position Fix Type: This can vary from “Acquiring” (When the GPS-1 is trying to obtain

position fix data) to a 2D Fix (No altitude data is valid) to a 3D Fix (Altitude data is valid).

Satellite PRN Number and Position: The PRN (Pseudo-Random Number) number is the

satellites ID number and the position within the circles is a function of the satellites elevation

and azimuth.

GPS Information Screen

information such as a bearing tape, altitude, ground speed and latitude and longitude as well

as time.
