GPS Sensor
What is GPS Sensor ?
As we know GPS stands for Global Positioning System. The system contains satellites and
ground based control installations. GPS sensor consists of surface mount chip which processes
signals from GPS satellites using a small rectangular antenna, often mounted on the top
of the GPS chip.
GPS module is usually small board on which GPS sensor is mounted with additional
components.• GPS receiver is a device which includes data display and other components such
as memory for data storage in addition to GPS module.
Working principle of GPS Sensor:
A GPS (Global Positioning System) sensor works by receiving signals from multiple
satellites in orbit around the Earth. These satellites transmit precise timing information
and their own positions. By measuring the time it takes for these signals to reach the
GPS sensor, the device can calculate its distance from each satellite. Using this distance
information from multiple satellites, the GPS sensor employs trilateration to determine
its own precise location on Earth's surface.
