Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:This work provides a thorough and detailed account of the GPS (Global Positioning System), its basic concepts, possible problems, and related technologies. As well as general background, topics covered include the system segments, signal characteristics, signal tracking, affects of interference, performance, availability, integration with other technologies, the Russian GLONASS (Global Navigation Satellite System), INMARSAT (International Maritime Satellite Organization), and GPS applications. References accompany each paper. The book is quite reasonably organized in terms of technical difficulty. The conceptual papers are presented first, with an advance to more demanding essays subsequently. This volume is an outgrowth of a course originally developed for the Boston Chapter of the IEEE in November of 1993. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1997
