Synopsis

Excerpt from Global Positioning System Receivers and Relativity

We illustrate the general methods for applying relativistic corrections needed by a gps receiver in providing time or position to a user. We focus on estimating the geometric range delay, the time gps signals require to propagate from the transmitter to the receiver in vacuum. We discuss several common uses of gps including time tagging at the receiver.
