Global Positioning System Civil Aviation Flight University of China The Errors of GPS ? Ephemeris Error Ephemeris error is the error inherent in the data that defines the satellites current position, which in turn is transmitted to the receiver. ? Interference Because GPS signals are relatively weak, harmful interference can cause significant degradation in navigation or complete loss of navigation capability under certain conditions. With more and more extensive use of all bands of the electromagnetic spectrum, the potential for interference problems to occur has increased. The trend is likely to continue. ? Receiver Error This is simply a small ranging error brought about by the difficulty of matching precisely, the receiver’s emitted digital psuedo-random code with that of the satellite’s. Civil Aviation Flight University of China The Errors of GPS ? Satellite Geometry This means the relative position of the satellites at a specific moment. When satellites are located at wide angles relative to each other, the possible error margin is small (Figure14.10). On the contrary, when satellites are grouped together or located in a line the geometry will be poor(Figure14.11). The effect of the geometry of the satellites on the position error is called Geometric Dilution of Precision (GDOP). GDOP comprises the components shown below, which can be individually computed but are not independent of each other: HDOP - Horizontal Dilution of Precision (Latitude, Longitude),describes the effect of satellite geometry on the latitude/longitude errors. VDOP - Vertical Dilution of Precision (Height), describes the effect of satellite geometry on the receiver/processor altitude errors. PDOP - Position Dilution of Precision (3-D),a combination of HDOP and VDOP Civil Aviation Flight University of China The Errors of GPS Figure 14.10 Figure 14.11 Civil Aviation Flight University of China The Differen
