GPS and Other Satellite Systems
Using GPS and another satellite system together offers
increased performance in challenging environments and faster
position acquisition than using GPS only. However, using
multiple systems can reduce battery life more quickly than using
GPS only.
Your device can use these Global Navigation Satellite Systems
(GNSS).
GPS: A satellite constellation built by the United States.
GLONASS: A satellite constellation built by Russia.
GALILEO: A satellite constellation built by the European Space
Agency.
