      Dude, this is so bad. "Using some engineering techniques, the satellites measure the distance between you and the satellites."
      You're literally propagating the single worst misunderstanding of how GPS works in that sentence and several other times after that. The satellites don't measure anything.
      This is so bad that you should really pull the video and redo the audio here so that at no point are you stating or implying that the satellites "know" where individual receivers are. Make it clear that they are beacons, similar to lighthouses. Ships use lighthouses at known positions to find themselves. GPS receivers use the beacons in space to find themselves.

      Levent YÜZGEÇ the necessary timing accuracy requires that the signals are both all processed on the same chip, meaning that signals received from the phone's modern would be out of sync. Further, the multiplexed nature of the cell phone signals adds extra timing errors.
      The entire point of putting the navigation beacons in space is so that it wouldn't be necessary to have huge numbers of beacons on the ground that covered smaller areas.

    @theodoroskioumourtzis463 4 года назад +1

    As you correctly said: "Mobiles and other receivers has no atomic clocks so they are not accurate as the atomic clocks integrated into the satellites. So a 4th satellite is used to eliminate this limit and monitor the other 3"
    And thats all!!
    Remember that even the atomic clocks are devices and their performance is subjected to the variation of environmental conditions especially temperature and pressure. Physicists frequently tend to ignore this "detail".
    So as you correctly said tiny measurement variation lead to huge error calculation when the speed of light is get involved.
    All is needed here for error compensation is CALIBRATION and is achieved through the 4th satellite and other calculations in advance regarding the clock of the satellites on the earth and in orbit.
    GR is certainly correct and improved nowadays thanks to more accurate measurements and has predicted many fenomena such as light bending and the existence of black holes, but is not required to make GPS to work properly.
    It is amazing (and disappoing) how much stuff is out there claiming still this GPS + GR correlation. It is also a pity that some very good physics science channels on youtube spread this idea.

  • @camilovega6262
    @camilovega6262 4 года назад +9

    I see alot of time offset confusion so I hope this helps. If we assume there is no time offset, then the fourth satellite will give us a fourth sphere which given the time offset will probably not intersect at the same point as before (since all these spheres assume time offset to be 0). Lets assume the real time offset is T which we want to find and lets say that our assumption of time offset is t where we initialise t=0. One can see that the new distance to each satellite is d = (t2 - t1 - t) * c since we assume a shift of t that is initially 0. If we increase t then the distance decreases on all spheres (and sphere sizes shrink). Likewise we can decrease t then that causes all sphere sizes to increase. Mathematically we can use this to determine the value for t at which all four spheres intersect at a point (well precisely at 2 points but we can pick the one near the earth's surface). This is how the fourth satellite solves time offset.

    You get a bunch of satellites in various orbits circling the earth transmitting their atomic corrected time, satellite number and calculated position to earth. You receive these signals with an antenna. A computer collects the data, compares the time differences with position of the satellites and can calculate the distances between the satellite and the antenna by using the speed of light across time difference. With the known position of three or more satellites, it can calculate our longitudinal, latitudinal and altitude on earth with triangulation (simple math). Atmosphere can bounce these signals and slow the signals, so it uses many satellites to increase accuracy. The military used to shift the time on the satellites periodically to make it difficult for consumers to utilize the technology for obtaining position data any closer than within 100 meters, which was post correctable by overlaying collected GPS data by a surveyed antenna. These days are gone, but at any time can be reimplemented in a time of war. You will then discover how quickly GPS can be disabled globally. A coronal mass ejection has the ability to fry satellites in orbit as well, which is why we should never take for granted the ability to locate ourselves on earth by old fashioned means. Technology is great to have but should not be trusted as being the only way to collect position data. The day cars, planes and boats rely 100% on GPS to navigate is when Murphy's law comes back to remind us when planes fly into the ground and cars collide with things globally when this occurs.

    • @vedant6633
      @vedant6633 5 лет назад +25

      I guess I got the answer,
      Let's assume you have three satellites and the exact precise time is unknown to the GPS receiver , let that actual precise time be T, the signal received from satellites shows times T1, T2, T3, so now the distances will be c*(T1 - T) , c*(T2 - T) , c*(T3 - T) now just imagine if we vary T, there will only be "some" values on which the Equations (equations of three spheres intersecting at a point) will converge to single solution, turns out if you have 4 satellites (4 spheres) there will only be "one" value of T that will converge to a single solution. Hence problem is solved, this also means that GPS receiver can be used as an excellent time keeping device by simply calculating T.

Keep the same deltaT_offset, then remove one sat in the triple with the fourth one, and calculate again, might give you another location. Since you can only be at one location, all you need is adjust the deltaT_offset so that both give you the same location.

      @zerocooljpn 5 лет назад +2

      exactly! no logic here... I "guess" (and only guess, as the video does not explain the reasoning) that the 4th satellite is to make the predicted location more accurate, since the point all the spheres have in common can be narrowed down even further, so we can ignore the points predicted by the wrong time having device to a more likely one. But again, no idea, it is not explained.

    i have done a lot of work on GPS devices since 1996. i think this is a good video, but there are some bugs in the video.
    1. the 3D positioning requires 4 satellites. it cannot be done just 3 satellites.
    2. the timing synchronization between the user device and GPS system is done by this way: the device SW manipulates 4 distances with 4 satellites with a initial device clock pre-setting, if the 4 satellites signals not aggregating into one point, it means its clock has error, then adjusting the device clock and manipulating again, till they are aggregated into one point. at this moment, the device clock is synchronized with the GPS system clock.
    3. the cell phone station can help the device to find its location and what satellites are above its head, to help the device SW to pre-setting its clock more close to really GPS system clock. this can reduce the time (from 30 seconds to 3 seconds) for the device SW to manipulate and synchronizes its clock with GPS system clock. without the cell phone station, the device doesn't know where it is, especially you just arrive a new city by a flight, its SW could estimate a totally wrong location to start, that causes the SW take a lot of time to manipulate its location to adjust its clock, even - or + the clock in wrong direction.
    hope my words could give some little help.

However, the explanation presented in video talks about the intersection of circle with signal sphere of the third satellite and not the intersection of circle with the surface of signal sphere of the third satellite.

      They actually had issues with Einstein's equations and started using a standard doppler shift. Farm tractors using GPS were impractical until they went with a standard doppler shift equation, instead of Einstein's botched equations, now GPS is a common place for farm tractors.
      The original idea of relativity was that it be a doppler shift between moving reference frames, Einstein did the math improperly. GPS now ignores his equations, utilized a standard doppler shift, and the system improved greatly, giving the potential for robotic tractors and self-driving cars now. If we had stayed with the relativity equations of Einstein, self-driving cars would be next to impossible. ruclips.net/video/j1Pe8y74Avg/видео.html

      @@jaykay4137 Right an excellent question. Astrophysicists are observing that dispersion happens in space, but only through matter and not through space devoid of matter, also through what is known as ISM interstellar medium, AKA an atmosphere, indicating that light bends through and atmosphere, not vacuum of space. Here is Dr. Dowdye who agrees that "gravity" cannot bend light, and the Shapiro effect is not caused by curvature of space but requires an atmosphere. It is the Sun's atmosphere that does the bending, like a rainbow is dispersion and bending through an atmosphere. ruclips.net/video/CnvOybT2WwU/видео.html
      In fact Dr. Dowdye shows that Einstein's equations fail to predict the bending at any other distance from the Sun, as Einstein's formulas predict, and Einstein works only at the plasma brim where there is an atmosphere. So effectively Einstein came up with an equation that describes the math from known light bending at the time, but it only works at 1 solar radius where there is an atmosphere. So Einstein got part of the math for the observed bending right by observation, but every where else his equation fails.
      In fact the Sun bends light at 1.75 arc seconds. The Earth at sunrise, or during an eclipse, bends light through its atmosphere at 30 arc minutes. That over 1000 times the bending of light caused by the Earths atmosphere vs the sun. If Einstein is right then the Earth bends space more than the Sun.
      Definition of dispersion...… The separating of frequencies of sound waves or light by frequency when the energy wave travels through a medium or atmosphere. This causes the lower frequencies of light to arrive first followed by the higher frequencies. AKA the Shapiro effect is not due to general relativity or space curvature, but an atmosphere.
      In fact they are seeing dispersion from quasars and from fast radio bursts, indicating that light, contrary to mainstream opinion is travelling as an energy wave like sound does through air, but when light travels through matter in space, to cause the bending and the Shapiro effect. Sound also produces dispersion of the frequencies when it travels through metals or diffracts around objects.
      There is no such thing as gravitational lensing or gravitational redshift, but the effects are real, just not caused by curvature of space, but by an atmosphere and requires the presence of matter, which general relativity says does not exist in the vacuum of space.

    Relativity explains why my GPS navigator reads 30 ft accuracy when moving at 60 mph, and 1 ft accuracy when stopped. The navigator's clock is in fact moving fast enough to have such an error.

    Just a question, speed of light is not a constant. It is affected by cloud, moisture, air density, etc. How do they take that into account?

    • @alflyle9955
      @alflyle9955 4 года назад

      The speed of light through space is a constant. However, you do bring up a good point as light speed does slow down as the radio signal moves through the atmosphere. The biggest impact delaying the signal at the frequencies GPS uses is when it passes through the Earth's ionosphere. There are corrections applied to the time delay of arrival of the GPS signal to account for the ionospheric refraction of the signal. This is one of the largest sources of errors in GPS, but still only meters after estimated corrections are applied.

    At 5:35, the video states, "at an altitude of 20,000 km above the earth, the satellites experience one quarter of the earth's gravity." Is that correct? The radius of the earth is about 6,400 km, so the satellites are about 26,400 km from the center of the earth, or about 4 times as far from the center as someone on the surface of the earth (26,400/6,400=4.125). Doesn't the force of gravity vary by the square of the distance between two masses? So, wouldn't the satellites experience only 1/16 of the earth's gravity (assuming that "the earth's gravity" means the force of gravity experienced at the surface)?

    I'm sure I'm missing something otherwise I would not ask this: 3:54 if your phone knows the time offset, then why not just broadcast it (or embed in the computation) so there won't be a need for a fourth satellite to pinpoint you?

    It requires at least 3 satellites to track our locations not 4. For accurate location it needs 4 .
