What are pseudoranges used for in GPS navigation systems?
What are pseudoranges used for in GPS navigation systems?
- To measure the range of frequencies used in GPS signals
- To generate pseudorandom numbers for encryption
- To estimate the positions of multiple satellites (correct)
- To correct for clock errors in GPS signals
Why are pseudoranges called 'pseudo'?
Why are pseudoranges called 'pseudo'?
- Because they are used to correct for clock errors in GPS signals
- Because they are generated using pseudorandom numbers
- Because they are only used for estimating the positions of satellites
- Because they are not the exact distances between the satellite and the receiver (correct)
