什么是 Satellite positioning?

Definition 32.10 Primary & Middle School Earth and Space Sciences · 第 32 章 — Maps of the Whole Earth

Satellite positioning is finding a position on the Earth from the distances to several satellites whose positions are known. A receiver computes each distance from the time a signal from the satellite takes to reach it.

Positioning on a flat map (a sketch; grid in kilometres not drawn). The receiver R is 5\, km from A, 10\, km from B and 5\, km from C. The circles around A and B cross at R and at a false point F; only R also lies on the circle around C.
