Question

In a GPS system, if one of the receivers is in relative motion with respect to the other receiver, having been mounted either on a vehicle, ship, or aircraft, it is called:

• A. kinematic GPS
• B. MDGPS
• C. DGPS
• D. Absolute GPS

Hint:

Kinematic GPS = 1 fixed + 1 moving receiver → used for precision in motion.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Kinematic GPS refers to a technique where one receiver is stationary (base station), and another is moving (e.g., mounted on a vehicle). It provides high-precision positioning and is used in navigation, surveying, and aerial mapping.
