11、ulative!,GPS Dilution of Precision and Its Affects On GPS Accuracy,GPS Satellite Geometry,Satellite geometry can affect the quality of GPS signals and accuracy of receiver trilateration. Dilution of Precision (DOP) reflects each satellites position relative to the other satellites being accessed by

12、a receiver. There are five distinct kinds of DOP. Position Dilution of Precision (PDOP) is the DOP value used most commonly in GPS to determine the quality of a receivers position. It is usually up to the GPS receiver to pick satellites which provide the best position triangulation. More advanced GP
