there is a low probability of mistaking one code for another. The GPS
ranging signals are transmitted on two frequencies, L 1, at 1575.42 MHz
(154 * 10.23 MHz), and L2 at 1227.6 MHz (120 * 10.23 MHz), where
10.23 MHz, is the fundamental frequency (fo).
3.1) Codes Used in the GPS:
The GPS L1 signal contains two spread spectrum signals: the Civil,
or Coarse Acquisition (C/A) code, and precision, or P-code. Both signals
are multiplexed onto the L1 carrier in phase quadrature, while the L2
signal contains only P-code.
Figure (4) shows a diagram representing the GPS satellite signals.
The L1 frequency, modulated by the C/A code and navigation message
data, the L2 frequency, modulated by the P code and navigation message
data.

word contains 30 bits, and hence each sub-frame has 300 bits, as shown
in figure (5). It will therefore take 30 seconds to receive one data frame,
and 12.5 minutes to receive one Master frame (One Master frame
contains all the information in all pages of sub-frames 4 and 5, and
consists of 25 complete frames).
