Re: gps

A GPS works searching three, or more, satellites.
When it finds those satellites, it measures the time of signals and has the distance betwen itself and the satellite. In every time the satellite has a specific localization; and with those datas, distance and satellite localization, GPS can calculate latitude, longitude and height.
