The Error Caused by Relativity in GPS Positioning System

Min ZHAO, Yunzhi WANG, Xiaoyun MU

Abstract


In GPS Positioning System, distance measurement between the receiver and the satellite is affected by all kinds of factors. So it has errors. Some of these errors, which are caused by relativity can’t be neglected when it is being accurate positioned. This essay analyses and estimates these errors.
