GPS and GPS Signals
The Global Positioning System `is a network of satellites that transmit accurate time and position
information worldwide. GPS receivers receive signals from these satellites and use the information to
determine an exact location.
Satellites orbit the earth at around 12,000 miles above the surface. While a GPS receiver can detect
signals from up to 12 satellites at any time, only three signals are needed to provide a position or
GPS “fix” (latitude and longitude) for vehicle navigation systems.
Smart
is designed to use GPS information to find your current position, and calculate the best
route to your desired destination using the available road maps. Smart
will then guide you with
voice and visual commands to your destination using the continuous stream of GPS data to track
your position.
The iCN GPS antenna receives GPS signals. To receive GPS signals, ensure that the iCN is
outdoors, or in a vehicle outdoors, and the GPS antenna has an unobstructed view of the sky. The
iCN can operate in all weather types except snowfall.
