Abstract

A method and an apparatus for a positioning system and augmentation of a global positioning system (GPS) are provided. The system includes at least four transmitters and at least one transceiver, when GPS is not available. The transceiver is able to calculate a position of the transceiver relative to the transmitters using information sent by the transmitters to the transceiver. When GPS is available, less than four transmitters may be used to augment GPS positioning.
