Detailed explanation-1: -Which of the following is the most fundamental for satellite navigation? Explanation: All of the satellite navigation equations have either satellite position or velocity as a variable.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based radio-navigation system consisting of a constellation of satellites broadcasting navigation signals and a network of ground stations and satellite control stations used for monitoring and control.
Detailed explanation-3: -NAVIGATION SATELLITES. Artificial satellites can provide the basis for all-weather, long-term navigation systems to determine with accuracy geodetic position, speed, and direction of a surface vehicle or aircraft, north reference, and vertical reference.
Detailed explanation-4: -Mean anamoly: It gives the average value to the angular position of the satellite with reference to the perigee. True anamoly: It is the angle from point of perigee to the satellite’s position, measured at the Earth’s centre.
