Care and Caution
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the United States Government
which is solely responsible for the accuracy and continued operation of the system.
Accuracy of position fixes (longitude, latitude and altitude) can be affected by
alterations made to the GPS satellites by the U.S. Government. Accuracy is subject
to change in accordance with the U.S. Department of Defense civil GPS user policy
and Federal Radionavigation Plan. Positional accuracy and time to fix time can also
be affected by poor view of caused by obstructions such as
tall buildings,
heavy foliage,
large cliffs and other obstructions
where GPS satellite signals are blocked and poor satellites geometry conditions
result.

Prepare to use you BT Gmouse Receiver
To help you begin to use your BT GPS Receiver (“BT Gmouse”), read this User Guide
in the first step. This User Guide explains the detail how BT Gmouse operates,
functions, and common features of the BT Gmouse. A short glossary of GPS related
terms and abbreviations at the back of the User Guide.
Before you begin using your BT Gmouse, you must complete the application
software installation tasks on your host device like PAD, PDA mobile phone, MMS
mobile phone, handheld PC, and portable PC hardware. For information about the
hardware operation and application software installation, please refer to the
documentation that accompanies each product.
For operation detail information, please consult Chapter 3. In order to get more
familiar with your BT Gmouse, please first read Chapter 2 before starting to operate
BT Gmouse.
GPS signal reception
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based radio-navigation system.
This system consists of 24 satellites, which orbit the Earth at an altitude of
approximately 17,500 kilometers, and ground control stations. Each of the 24
satellites, deployed in 6 orbital planes, circles the earth twice a day. The system
satellites continuously transmit signals contain the information of time and distance
in a precise formation, 24 hours a day in any weather condition, everywhere around
the world. By processing the signals received, BT Gmouse provides users with
helpful information of position, velocity, and time for navigation and location
awareness purposes anywhere anytime on the Earth.
The BT Gmouse offers high position accuracy and fast Time-To-First-Fix (TTFF),
which rely on environment circumstances where receiver located as well as initial
states of the receiver. During attempting to a position fix, the receiver needs to lock
on to at least 3 satellites and, uses the signal can be received as well as the data of
latest position stored in the receiver’s digital memory in order to compute the
location of the device.
15
Environmental factors that influence the position accuracy and TTFF including such
as
tall buildings,
narrow street and passageway,
protection film on glass,
heavy foliage,
large cliffs,
and other obstructions where the satellite signals may blocked, and, poor satellites
geometry situation. Initial state of the receiver, means latest status in memory of
the receiver, may mainly determine the time of TTFF. Position can be quickly fixed
within only 10 seconds from a hot-start state and needs 60 seconds typically from a
cold-start state. Or, might need at least 3 to 5 minutes from a completely
restart-state, for example, flying a distance over 500 kilometers from initial origin.
BT Gmouse uses the satellite signals to calculate an exact geodetic location through
triangulation method, contained in 7 meters CEP accurateness devoid of Selective
Availability (SA), which is good enough for general location awareness purposes.
The position data is then converted within the receiver to latitude and longitude
coordinates, which is usually provided in the geodetic datum on which GPS is based
(WGS 84). Position offsets of hundreds of meters or much more can result from
using the wrong datum.
In addition to datum used, there are number of positioning errors can occur,
limiting accuracy. The major errors including satellites orbiting error, poor satellites
geometry, multi-path signals, atmospheric delay and receiver clock timing.
The indication of GPS signal reception is described in section “Indication of BT
Gmouse operation” of Chapter 3.
16

Glossary
Almanac data
A set of information that transmitted by each satellite on the orbits and state of
every satellite in the GPS constellation. Each GPS satellite contains and transmits
the almanac data set for the entire GPS satellite system network. Almanac data
allows the GPS receiver to rapidly acquire satellites shortly after it is turned on.
ACTIVE ANTENNA
An antenna that amplifies the GPS signal before it sends it to the receiver.
Altitude
The distance between the current position and the nearest point on WGS 84
reference ellipsoid, usually it is expressed in meters or feet and is positive outside
the ellipsoid.
Baud
Bits per second. Also referred to as a baud rate.
Channel
Channel refers to a set of hardware in the receiver that detects locks on and
continuously tracks the signal from a single GPS satellite. The more channels
available, the greater number of GPS satellite’s signals a receiver can
simultaneously lock and track. A receiver of 12 channels is the optimized design,
considering the current consumption, chip-package size and cost.
CEP - Circular Error Probable
CEP is the radius of a circle, centered at a true location, within which fifty percent of
positioning solutions fall. CEP is used to achieve horizontal accuracy.
C/No
Carrier-to-Noise density ratio. An indication of satellite signal strength received by
the GPS receiver.
COLD START
A condition in which the GPS receiver can arrive at a navigation solution without
initial position, time, current Ephemeris, and almanac data.
33
Constellation
Constellation refers to the specific set of of orbiting GPS satellites system, used in
calculating positions or all the satellites visible to a GPS receiver at one time. The
pattern created by the relative positioning of a GPS satellite network is designed to
achieve a very high probability of global satellite coverage even in the event of
satellite outages.
dB
Decibel. A notation of relative unit such as the satellite signal strength received.
DATUM
A math model which depicts a part of the surface of the earth. Latitude and
longitude lines on a paper map are referenced to a specific map datum. The map
datum selected on a GPS receiver needs to match the datum listed on the
corresponding paper map in order for the position readings to match.
Elevation mask
Elevation mask is an adjustable feature of GPS receivers that specifies a satellite
must be a certain number of degrees above the horizon before its signals are used
for positioning. Satellites at low elevation angles (five degrees or less) have lower
signal strengths and are more prone to loss of lock thus causing noisy solutions.
Ellipsoid
A geometric surface which all of whose plane sections are either ellipses or circles.
Ephemeris
Ephemeris is a set of parameters used by a global navigation satellite receiver to
predict the location of a satellite and its clock behavior. Each satellite contains and
transmits ephemeris data about its own orbit and clock. Ephemeris data is more
accurate than the almanac data but is applicable over a short time frame from four
to six hours. Ephemeris data is transmitted by the satellite every 30 seconds.
The predictions of current satellite position are transmitted to the user in the data
message.
Geodetic coordinate
A coordinate system whose elements are latitude, longitude and geodetic height.
The latitude is an angle based on the perpendicular to the ellipsoid. Longitude is the
angle measured in the XY plane.
34
GIS (Geographic Information System)
a computer based system that is capable of collecting, managing and analyzing
geographic spatial data. This capability includes storing and utilizing maps,
displaying the results of data queries and conducting spatial analysis.
Hot Start
Start mode of the GPS receiver when current position, clock offset, approximate
GPS time and current ephemeris data are all available.
L1 frequency
1575.42 MHz GPS carrier frequency which contains only encrypted P code, used
primarily to calculate signal delays caused by the ionosphere.
Latitude
A north/south measurement of position perpendicular to the earth's polar axis.
Longitude
An east/west measurement of position in relation to the Prime Meridian, an
imaginary circle that passes through the north and south poles.
Multipath
Multipath is the reception of a signal both along a direct path and along one or
more reflected paths. Multipath signals result in an incorrect pseudorange
measurement.
NMEA (NATIONAL MARINE ELECTRONICS ASSOCIATION)
A U.S. standards committee that defines data message structure, contents, and
protocols to allow the GPS receiver to communicate with other pieces of electronic
equipment aboard ships.
Selective Availability (SA)
Selective Availability is a process whereby the U.S. Department of Defense dithers
the satellite clock and/or broadcasts erroneous orbital ephemeris data to create a
pseudorange error to prevent adversaries from using the extremely accurate GPS
positioning data.
SPREAD SPECTRUM
The received GPS signal is wide bandwidth and low power. The L-band signal is
modulated with a pseudo random noise code to spread the signal energy over a
35
much wider bandwidth than the signal information bandwidth. This provides the
ability to receive all satellites unambiguously and to give some resistance to noise
and multipath.
TIME TO FIRST FIX (TTFF)
The time it takes to find the satellites is called the Time to First Fix (TTFF). If you
have not used your GPS unit for several months, the almanac data for the satellites
may be out of date. The unit is capable of recollecting this information on its own,
but the process can take several minutes. The time it takes after the user first turns
on the GPS receiver, when a GPS receiver has lost memory, or has been moved
over 300 miles from its last location.
TRIANGULATION
A method of determining the location of an unknown point, as in GPS navigation, by
using the laws of plane trigonometry.
Universal Time Coordinated (UTC)
UTC is the time as maintained by the U.S. Naval Observatory. Because of variations
in the Earth's rotation, UTC is sometimes adjusted by an integer second. The
accumulation of these adjustments compared to GPS time, which runs continuously,
has resulted in an offset between GPS time and UTC. After accounting for leap
seconds and using adjustments contained in the navigation message, GPS time can
be related to UTC within 20 nanoseconds or better. Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is
still the standard time zone for the prime meridian (zero longitude).
Warm Start
Start mode of the GPS receiver when current position, clock offset and approximate
GPA time are input by user or by the application software. Almanac is retained,
but ephemeris data is clear.
Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS)
Developed by the United States government, WAAS is a Satellite-Based
Augmentation System (SBAS) that calculates the errors in the GPS signal at several
monitoring stations around the country, then transmits error correction messages
from geostationary satellites to GPS receivers.
World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS 84)
The primary map datum used by GPS. Secondary datums are computed as
differences from the WGS 84 standard. WGS 84 is a set of U.S. Defense Mapping
Agency (DMA) parameters for determining global geometric and physical geodetic
36
relationships. Parameters include a geocentric reference ellipsoid; a coordinate
system; and a gravity field model. GPS satellite orbital information in the navigation
message is referenced to WGS 84.
