realized by the (last active) Block II, Block IIA, Block IIR as well as three modernized<br />

Block IIR-M satellites. The first Block II satellite was launched on February 1989. Today,<br />

a full constellation of at least 24 satellites is available (31 satellites in January 2007).<br />

2.1.1.2 The Satellite Signal<br />

All signals transmitted by the satellite are derived from the fundamental frequency f0 of<br />

the satellite oscillator (see Table 2.2). The two sinusoidal carrier frequencies f1 and f2<br />

(corresponding wavelengths λ1 ≈ 19 cm and λ2 ≈ 24 cm) are right-hand circular polarized<br />

and modulated with the codes and the navigation message to transmit information such<br />

as the readings of the satellite clocks, the orbital parameters, etc. The so-called biphase<br />

modulation is used as shown in Figure 2.3. The codes P(t), C(t), and the navigation message<br />
