Basic concepts of GPS
 Trilateration from satellites
 Relative positions of objects using the geometry of triangles.
 GPS receiver measure distance using the travel time of radio
signals
 Used atomic clock to achieve Accurate timing
 Along with distance the exact location of the satellites in space
must be known.

USER SEGMENT
 Method of establish the distance b/n the satellite and receiver
1. Psuedo-range
2. Carrier phase measurement method.
Psuedo-range method
 Distance measurement is depends upon accurate time
measurement and precise synchronization of clock in both
satellite and receivers
 Its almost impossible to achieve the technique is known as
Psuedo-range.
 Satellite continuously transmits its code at every milliseconds

19/50
Shanmugasundaram.N
Psuedo-range method
 Due to the travel of signal the receiver received the code
delay and its converted into a distance by multiplying by the
speed of lights
 Due to the atmosphere the error will be occurred in speed of
light
Carrier phase measurement method.
 Similar to the operational of EDM
 Problem creating by two clock
 To prevent this problem by taking two reading satellite by
simultaneously and operation by single satellite by two

Shanmugasundaram.N
2. Geodetic – receivers
Leading manufacturers have gone for code-less, non sequencing
L2 technique.
WILD/LEITZ (heerbrugg, Switzerland ) and MAGNAVOX
(Torrance, California) have jointly developed WM 101 geodetic
receiver in 1986.
Codes are observed once per seconds
4 channel C/A code receivers

Data processing:
It is most important consideration
Collect the good quality data, for example avoiding multipath
including environments, correct measurement of antenna height,
adequate battery power, no signal observations (tree etc..) or
interference (microwave transmission , etc...) appropriate length
observation sessions, etc...
Repair, detect are appropriately pre-processed.

40/50
Shanmugasundaram.N
Appropriate observation modelling and processing software:
Matched to the accuracy required so that the correct strategy is
used to account for the GPS measurement biases and in particular the
cycle ambiguities
Appropriate processing procedure:
Recognises that GPS phase data reduction involves a numbers of
steps executed in sequence.

41/50
Shanmugasundaram.N
Degree of sophistication of data modelling and processing:
Used at wide range and verity of GPS modelling and software
options that are available
The surveying applications may be categorised according to three
general ranges of accuracy
Class A ( Scientific) – better than 1 ppm – precise engineering
Class B ( Geodetic) – 1 to 10 ppm – Geodetic densification,
mapping, resource development app...
Class C ( General surveying) – lower than 10 ppm – urban,
cadastral, general purpose survey)

42/50

1. Data pre-processing :
a. Initial data transfer and decoding
b. Data screening and editing
c. Data reporting and data base creation and entry
d. Point positioning using pseudo – range data.
 Carried out on a single-station basis, and can therefore be carried
out in the field office.
 The result should be a set of appropriately formatted and pre-
processed , observations, together with ephemeris information
and approximate station co ordinates

43/50
Shanmugasundaram.N
2. Initial data analysis:
 Final data adjustment
Using two or more GPS in field observation
Cycle slip detection and repair
Preliminary baseline solution based on triple – differenced phase
data or double-differenced pseudo-range data
Final adjustment:
 Formation of the phase data differences
Definition of the apriority weight matrices
Estimation of relative station coordinates
Estimation of carrier beat phase ambiguities and fixing them to
integers
Output of estimated parameters and covariance matrix

44/50
Shanmugasundaram.N
Final adjustment :
Adjustment of GPS observations can be performed in two ways
1. By combining single baseline solutions into a network
adjustment of the baseline components
2. Bt a direct simultaneous solution involving all the GPS
observations for a session or complete network.

45/50
Shanmugasundaram.N
Traversing and Triangulation:
1. General information
GPS used to other surveying tool
It can accomplish certain goals if we are conscious of its strengths
and limitations.
When surveying with GPS we do not need to have inter-visibility
b/n the stations to measure a baseline.
The only constraint to receive the signals is having a clear of the
sky

46/50
Shanmugasundaram.N
Network design on map:
To make a map of the station in a good geometric figure, both
fixed control points and unknown points for the entire project area.
Scale and distance between the two stations are important factor
Confidence level is not only the accuracy level also the
configuration
To fulfil the basic role a strong and reliable reference frame work,
Its must be homogeneous
Individual figures should be well-shaped

47/50
Shanmugasundaram.N
Stations should be evenly spaced as possible
Adjacent pairs of stations in the network should preferably be
connected by direct measurement.
Ratio of longest length to the shortest length should never be
greater then 1:5 and usually should be much less
Higher difference in heights b/n two stations will be avoided in the
network
Designed several small closed loops within the large network

48/50
Shanmugasundaram.N
 The areas in which the ground does not permit to design the
network like traverse
There are two types of control
1. Horizontal control
2. Vertical control
Horizontal control
 Minimum 3 to 4 fixed control points for average size of project
with complete adjustments
 More number of control produce better redundancy with higher
quantity of check
 Four control points two at both ends of the network are required
to established for network adjustments

49/50
Shanmugasundaram.N
Vertical control:
 MSL height are not to be confused with GPS height
 GPS height is based on the WGS 84 ellipsoid
 MSL height is based on an equipotential surface coinciding with
MSL called the geoids
 Need to know the geoidal undulation at that point for convert the
GPS and MSL height (ex: separation b/n geoid & ellipsoid)
 Connect maximum number of points to connect the height and
level adjustments
 GPS control points which is not connected with levelling line
will be adjusted by adjustment program with the help of fixed
vertical control points and EGM96 geoid model, used to find
unknown vertical points on to the same datum as fixed point.
