8. 8 GE Equipment Services Trailer Fleet Services GPS Case Study: No GPS Location Fix on Lot 11 Only Occurs at 7AM at this Specific Lot GPS Fix occurs at 8AM, 9AM 11AM, etc Sources of Interference Coherent CW: Specific Spectral Line Interference Signal within 2 MHz Bandwidth Pulsed Broadband: Peak AWGN interference power, Varied Duty Cycle Aluminum Processing Plant 1 Block Away!! Pulsed CW Peak CW Interference Power, Varied Duty Cycle Signal Attenuation Signal Attenuation from Multipath, Signal Blockage or Fading Selected Satellite Signal is Attenuated

9. 9 GE Equipment Services Trailer Fleet Services GPS Case Study 2: Poor Position Accuracy Greater than 50m Errors, Stationary Asset Will “move” 200 meters 2D vs 3D Fix 2D = 3 Satellites Received, 3D = 4 Satellites Received Why 4 Satellites? Accurate Positioning Requires Very Precise Timing Measurement Takes.06 Seconds for Signal to Reach Ground At 300,000 Km/s 1/1,000,000 sec error => 300m Position Errors Satellites have atomic clocks, two rubidium and two cesium Receivers have only quartz clocks Problem identified with NMEA Diagnostics Tool => 2D Fix Received Only Could wait 20 min for 3D but Solution was to Change GPS Chip Set
