GPS and Other Satellite Systems
Using GPSand another satellite system
together offers increased performance
in challenging environments and faster
position acquisition than using GPS only.
However, using multiple systems can
reduce battery life more quickly than
using GPS only.
Your device can use these Global
Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS).
Multi-band systems use multiple
frequency bands and allow for
more consistent track logs, improved
positioning, improved multi-path errors,
and fewer atmospheric errors when using
the device in challenging environments.
