GPS signals are processed in the GPS unit and displayed, and they are also processed via three Global Position Satellites. All four units work together and process GPS signals (some to the satellites from the GPS, and some from the satellites to the GPS) to create an accurate position.
signals from at least 3 satellites send signals to and receive signals from the gps which are then triangulated to give the exact position of the GPS unit. Most GPS units are receive only. That is they must receive positional and timing information from the GPS satellite constellation. The internal processor them computes your position based upon this data(triangulation). Generally receiving data from three or more satellite's is needed to be produce a good fix (your position) but this is also dependent upon the geometry of the satellites. The best fixes are obtained when you have signals from three or more satellites which are geometrically separated by 45 degrees.

A Global Positioning satellite is one of several satellites that orbit the earth constantly broadcasting a signal the give their location. Collectively these satellites are called the Globle Positioning System or GPS. Global Positioning means the system is used to determine your position on the globe -- your latitude and longitude. GPS receivers can receive signals from these satellites and use them to calculate where on the earth the receiver (and thus the person with the receiver) is. Visit the links below for more information on GPS satellites.
satellite equipped with radar
radio signals
satellite signals
it sends signals to a satellite and tell where you are
from class i herd that it should be 3 satelites to track you on a gps
at least 3. Alan x:)
No. It's just a radio receiver, listening for satellite signals.

A GPS trailing tracking system is a device that finds the exact location of something (i.e: phone, vehicle, ect.) It works by providing satellite signals which are processed by a receiver. These GPS receivers track the exact location of an object. reference: http://www.eetimes.com/design/communications-design/4210115/How-does-a-GPS-tracking-system-work-/
No there is no fees for receiving satellite signals only if you want to transmit back to the satellite to send your position to another receiver or the internet
No, that won't work.You need a special GPS receiver with a super-accurate clock in it (and lots of other goodies) in order to take advantage of GPS signals from the group of 24 GPS satellites.
Directional skills have improved to degree by the use of mapping. and GPS via satellite signals
A GPS on a cellular phone receives its signal from GPS satellites that are in the sky. When the GPS receives signals from more than one satellite, it can calculate the position and track exactly where the user of the cellular phone is headed.
GPS is an acronym that stands for Global Positioning System. one of a few satellite navigational systems; however it is the only fully functional system currently in service. Each satellite transmits radio signals which can be received by GPS receivers to determine location, speed and direction.
