Abstract
This article discusses the main attractions of using GPS receivers for spac
e applications, as well as the specific features of spaceborne and terrestr
ial and airborne receivers. The performances achievable for several types o
f space mission are also highlighted with the results of engineering-model
simulations performed with the Alcatel TOPSTAR 3000 GPS receiver.
