Product Information

The M-code is transmitted in the same L1 and L2 frequencies already in use by the previous military code, the P(Y)-code. The new signal is shaped to place most of its energy at the edges (away from the existing P(Y) and C/A carriers). It does not work at every satellite, and M-code was switched off for SVN62/PRN25 on 05 April 2011. [29]

Having reached full operational capability on July 17, 1995 [20] the GPS system had completed its original design goals. However, additional advances in technology and new demands on the existing system led to the effort to "modernize" the GPS system. Announcements from the Vice President and the White House in 1998 heralded the beginning of these changes and in 2000, the U.S. Congress reaffirmed the effort, referred to as GPS III. The P-code is a PRN sequence much longer than the C/A code: 6.187104x10 12 chips. Even though the P-code chip rate (10.23 Mchip/s) is ten times that of the C/A code, it repeats only once per week, eliminating range ambiguity. It was assumed that receivers could not directly acquire such a long and fast code so they would first "bootstrap" themselves with the C/A code to acquire the spacecraft ephemerides, produce an approximate time and position fix, and then acquire the P-code to refine the fix. The interface to the User Segment ( GPS receivers) is described in the Interface Control Documents (ICD). The format of civilian signals is described in the Interface Specification (IS) which is a subset of the ICD.

An ephemeris is valid for only four hours; an almanac is valid with little dilution of precision for up to two weeks. [7] The receiver uses the almanac to acquire a set of satellites based on stored time and location. As each satellite is acquired, its ephemeris is decoded so the satellite can be used for navigation. A major component of the modernization process is a new military signal. Called the Military code, or M-code, it was designed to further improve the anti-jamming and secure access of the military GPS signals.

A and B are maximal length LFSRs. The modulo operations correspond to resets. Note that both are reset each millisecond (synchronized with C/A code epochs). In addition, the extra modulo operation in the description of A is due to the fact it is reset 1 cycle before its natural period (which is 8,191) so that the next repetition becomes offset by 1 cycle with respect to B [32] (otherwise, since both sequences would repeat, I5 and Q5 would repeat within any 1ms period as well, degrading correlation characteristics). The L1C pilot and data ranging codes are based on a Legendre sequence with length 10 223 used to build an intermediate code (called a Weil code) which is expanded with a fixed 7-bit sequence to the required 10,230 bits. This 10,230-bit sequence is the ranging code and varies between PRN numbers and between the pilot and data components. The ranging codes are described by: [37] L1C i ( t ) = L1C ′ ( t mod 10 230 ) L1C i ′ ( t ′ ) = { W i ( t ′ ) if t ′ < p i ′ S ( t ′ − p i ′ ) if p i ′ ≤ t ′ < p i ′ + 7 W i ( t ′ − 7 ) if t ′ ≥ p i ′ + 7 S = ( 0 , 1 , 1 , 0 , 1 , 0 , 0 ) W i ( n ) = L ( n ) ⊕ L ( ( n + w i ) mod 10 223 ) L ( n ) = { 1 if n ≠ 0 and there is an integer m such that n ≡ m 2 ( mod 10 223 ) 0 otherwise {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}{\text{L1C}}_{i}(t)&={\text{L1C}}'(t{\bmod {10\,230}})\\{\text{L1C}}'_{i}(t')&={\begin{cases}W_{i}(t')&{\text{ if }}t'

In addition to the PRN ranging codes, a receiver needs to know the time and position of each active satellite. GPS encodes this information into the navigation message and modulates it onto both the C/A and P(Y) ranging codes at 50bit/s. The navigation message format described in this section is called LNAV data (for legacy navigation). X 1 ( t ) = d ( t ) ⊕ d ( t − 2 ) ⊕ d ( t − 3 ) ⊕ d ( t − 5 ) ⊕ d ( t − 6 ) X 2 ( t ) = d ( t ) ⊕ d ( t − 1 ) ⊕ d ( t − 2 ) ⊕ d ( t − 3 ) ⊕ d ( t − 6 ) d ′ ( t ′ ) = { X 1 ( t ′ 2 ) if t ′ ≡ 0 ( mod 2 ) X 2 ( t ′ − 1 2 ) if t ′ ≡ 1 ( mod 2 ) {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}X_{1}(t)&=d(t)\oplus d(t-2)\oplus d(t-3)\oplus d(t-5)\oplus d(t-6)\\X_{2}(t)&=d(t)\oplus d(t-1)\oplus d(t-2)\oplus d(t-3)\oplus d(t-6)\\d'(t')&={\begin{cases}X_{1}\left({\frac {t'}{2}}\right)&{\text{if }}t'\equiv 0{\pmod {2}}\\X_{2}\left({\frac {t'-1}{2}}\right)&{\text{if }}t'\equiv 1{\pmod {2}}\\\end{cases}}\end{aligned}}} General features [ edit ] A visual example of the GPS constellation in motion with the Earth rotating. Notice how the number of satellites in view from a given point on the Earth's surface, in this example at 45°N, changes with time. Pre-operational signal with message set "unhealthy" until sufficient monitoring capability established The modulation method is binary offset carrier, using a 10.23MHz subcarrier against the 5.115MHz code. This signal will have an overall bandwidth of approximately 24MHz, with significantly separated sideband lobes. The sidebands can be used to improve signal reception.Each frame contains (in subframe 1) the 10 least significant bits of the corresponding GPS week number. [15] Note that each frame is entirely within one GPS week because GPS frames do not cross GPS week boundaries. [16] Since rollover occurs every 1,024 GPS weeks (approximately every 19.6 years; 1,024 is 2 10), a receiver that computes current calendar dates needs to deduce the upper week number bits or obtain them from a different source. One possible method is for the receiver to save its current date in memory when shut down, and when powered on, assume that the newly decoded truncated week number corresponds to the period of 1,024 weeks that starts at the last saved date. This method correctly deduces the full week number if the receiver is never allowed to remain shut down (or without a time and position fix) for more than 1,024 weeks (~19.6 years). For the ranging codes and navigation message to travel from the satellite to the receiver, they must be modulated onto a carrier wave. In the case of the original GPS design, two frequencies are utilized; one at 1575.42 MHz (10.23MHz × 154) called L1; and a second at 1227.60MHz (10.23MHz × 120), called L2. GPS signals are broadcast by Global Positioning System satellites to enable satellite navigation. Receivers on or near the Earth's surface can determine location, time, and velocity using this information. The GPS satellite constellation is operated by the 2nd Space Operations Squadron (2SOPS) of Space Delta 8, United States Space Force. Modernized GPS civilian signals have two general improvements over their legacy counterparts: a dataless acquisition aid and forward error correction (FEC) coding of the NAV message.

The C/A code is transmitted on the L1 frequency as a 1.023MHz signal using a bi-phase shift keying ( BPSK) modulation technique. The P(Y)-code is transmitted on both the L1 and L2 frequencies as a 10.23MHz signal using the same BPSK modulation, however the P(Y)-code carrier is in quadrature with the C/A carrier (meaning it is 90° out of phase). Besides redundancy and increased resistance to jamming, a critical benefit of having two frequencies transmitted from one satellite is the ability to measure directly, and therefore remove, the ionospheric delay error for that satellite. Without such a measurement, a GPS receiver must use a generic model or receive ionospheric corrections from another source (such as the Wide Area Augmentation System or WAAS). Advances in the technology used on both the GPS satellites and the GPS receivers has made ionospheric delay the largest remaining source of error in the signal. A receiver capable of performing this measurement can be significantly more accurate and is typically referred to as a dual frequency receiver. In each subframe, each hand-over word (HOW) contains the most significant 17 bits of the TOW count corresponding to the start of the next following subframe. [14] Note that the 2 least significant bits can be safely omitted because one HOW occurs in the navigation message every 6 seconds, which is equal to the resolution of the truncated TOW count thereof. Equivalently, the truncated TOW count is the time duration since the last GPS week start/end to the beginning of the next frame in units of 6 seconds.The delay for PRN numbers 34 and 37 is the same; therefore their C/A codes are identical and are not transmitted at the same time [5] (it may make one or both of those signals unusable due to mutual interference depending on the relative power levels received on each GPS receiver).
