2 General description of what GPS is and how it w orks. GPS (Global P ositioning System) is the only system today able to show you your exact position on the Ear th anytime, in any weather , anywhere. GPS satellites, 24 in all, orbit at 11 ,00 0 na uti cal mil es a bove t he E ar th . Th ey ar e co nti nuo usl y m oni to red by gr oun d s tat ion s[...]

3 Although GPS was designed f or militar y use, many thousands of civi lians make use of it. The satellites actually broadcast two signals, one is only formilitar y use, and the ther can be used b y both militar y and civilians. Since GPS is passive (you only need to receive the signal), there are no restrictions on who can use the signal availab l[...]

8 SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 O VER VIEW 12 Channel GPS Sensor Module The HI-203E is an all-in-one GPS receiver module specifically designed for handheld device mar k et. It features small size, lo w power consumption, and ease of use. The HI-203E is optimized for good perf ormance and low cos t. It s 12 parall el ch anne ls an d 400 0 tim e/fr eque[...]

9 1.2 Features • 12 parallel channel GPS receiver • 4000 simultaneous time-frequency search bins • Better than -135dBm sensitivity • < 10 second hot star t • < 45 second cold star t • 5m CEP accuracy[...]

10 SECTION 2 RECEIVER OPERA TION Upon power up, after initial self-test has completed, the HI-203E will begin satellite acquisition and tracking process. Under nor mal open-sky condition, position-fix can be achieved within appro ximately 35 seconds (within 10 seconds if valid ephemeris data is already collected fr om r ec en t us e) . A ft er r ec[...]

11 As soon as GPS signal is acquired and trac ked, the HI-203E will transmit valid navigation information through its ser ial interface . The navigation data contains follo wing information: • Receiver position in latitude , longitude, and altitude • Receiver v elocity • Time • DOP error-magnification factor • GPS signal tracking status T[...]

15 3.3 ONE-PULSE-PER-SECOND (1PPS) OUTPUT The one-pulse-per-second output is provided f or applications requir ing precise timing measurements. The output pulse is 1usec in duration. Rising edge of the output pulse is accurate to +/-1usec with respect to the star t of each GPS second. Accuracy of the one-pulse-per-second output is maintained only w[...]

16 As long as enough satellite signals are received to generate valid position fixes , the 1PPS output remains synchroniz ed to the GPS second, and the 1PPS V alid Signal remains active . If signal bloc kage prevents the receiv er from generating valid position fix, the 1PPS output will drift awa y from the GPS second and the 1PPS V alid Signal wil[...]
