Satellite communications payload design must be properly coupled with the capabilities and interaction of spacecraft bus. GPS control segment consists on a global network of ground facilities that track The GPS satellites, monitor their transmissions, perform analyses, and send commands and data to the constellation. A GPS Receiver is a device capable of determining the user position, velocity and precise time (PVT) by processing the signal broadcasted by satellites.

The space segment of an artificial satellite system
is one of its three operational components(the other being user and ground segment).It comprises the satellite constellation and the uplink and downlink satellite links. The over all design of the payload, satellite, ground segment, and endto-end system is a complex task. Satellite communications payload design must be properly coupled with the capabilities and interaction of spacecraft bus that provides power, stability and environmental support to the payload
COTROL SEGMENT
The GPS control segment consists of a
global network of ground facilities that track the GPS satellites, monitor their transmissions, perform analyses, and send commands and data to the constellation. The current operational control segment includes a master control station, an alternate master control station, 12 command and control antennas, and 16 monitoring sites
USER SEGMENT
The GPS User Segment consists on L-band
radio receiver/processors and antennas which receive GPS signals, determine pseudoranges (and other observables), and solve the navigation equations in order to obtain their coordinates and provide a very accurate time. The GNSS Market Report, Issue 3, provided by European GNSS Agency, has estimated that the number of GPS enabled devices in 2012 were about two billion units.
A GPS Receiver is a device capable of
determining the user position, velocity and precise time (PVT) by processing the signal broadcasted by satellites. Any navigation solution provided by a GNSS Receiver is based on the computation of its distance to a set of satellites, by means of extracting the propagation time of the incoming signals traveling through space at the speed of light, according to the satellite and receiver local clocks.
