GPS Technology in Action
GPS is powered by a worldwide radio navigation system made up of 24 satellites above the Earth, beaming signals to ground stations, which enables microwave signals to communicate with your GPS device and calculate your vehicle's speed, travel route, and more. The latest Linxup GPS Tracking Solutions and Devices operate on the 4G network.
