How GPS Works Through Satellite | Global Positioning System
Communication is a form of wireless communication in which satellites are the main objects.
These satellites are commonly called communication satellites.
Communication satellites are ideally placed to provide the telecommunication links between different places across the globe,
These satellites enable us to communicate over large distances Satellite communication can be used for many applications such as international telephone calls, providing communications to remote areas of the Earth, providing satellite communications to ships, aircraft and other mobile vehicles. Figure 1.14 shows satelites orbiting around the Earth.

Global Positioning System
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is global navigation satellite system. This position-finding system uses satellites to determine precise locations on the surface of the Earth.
GPS can be used to pinpoint any ship or submarine on the ocean, or to measure the height of Mount Everest. It can also be used by armed forces, scientists, fishermen, climbers, hikers and anyone who wants the accurate location and time information Figure 1.15 shows GPS satellites with targets and GPS receiver. In this Figure, a stolen vehicle has been detected through Global Positioning System (GPS),
