Losing the GPS Signal While in a Vehicle
GPS performance on the FR6074 may be affected if the vehicle has thermal glass windows and
windshields, which can block the FR6074 from receiving a GPS signal from satellites. To improve
GPS signal strength, place the FR6074 where there is a clear view of the sky. A direct line of sight
is required between the FR6074 and the GPS satellites to access information from the satellites.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a system that allows the user to track their position
anywhere on the earth.
Assisted GPS
GPS can be used in stand-alone or Assisted GPS (A-GPS) modes. A Stand-alone GPS receiver
downloads data from GPS satellites. It can take several minutes to get a fix. By using GPS
Location servers, A-GPS dramatically improves the performance of the Time To First Fix (TTFF)
of GPS receivers by providing them with data that they would ordinarily have to download from
the GPS satellites. With the A-GPS data, GPS receivers can operate faster and more reliably.
A-GPS follows the Secure User Plane Location (SUPL) protocol which allows the FR6074 to
communicate with a location server. Refer to the EMDK Help file for information on setting up
SUPL on the FR6074.
