  • Patent number: 6018313
    Abstract: To reduce the transfer capacity requirements for correction data in a differential GPS system, while notably improving the interpretability of any correction data having suffered transmission interference and ensuring that such correction be as up to date as possible, continuous error readings (7) are calculated from a steady stream of GPS signals (12, 22, 32, 42) received from a reference GPS receiver (50) and from the known co-ordinates of its location (6). According to the invention, an evaluation system (60) is provided which, at a specific point in time recalculates the correction readings rounded off to the last full minute. The correction reading (8), calculated by the evaluation system, is then transmitted by at least one radio transmitter (80) in a radio data signal (RDS) included in its program signal.
