Its from 96 and a little bit dated in some respects. but a good
book. The second edition is coming in a few months
Understanding GPS: Principles and Applications, Second Edition
ISBN 1-58053-894-0
Elliott Kaplan and Christopher Hegarty
Approx. 680 pages.
Available December 2005
Another very good book is "Global Positioning System: Signals,
Measurements and Performance" by Misra & Enge. A second edition also
expected in December.
I have found www.navtechgps.com to have a good selection of GPS
related books.
btw - has anyone evaluated L1/L2 vs L1 timing receivers. I heard
Ashtech used to have an L1/L2, Septentrio now have a version for
timing. But I do not know anyone building time&freq instruments with
dual freq GPS receivers. (exept the military CommSyncII and XLi
SAASM)
