perhaps ignore errors in code samples?

Tsui gives a solid exposition of how to use a GPS signal. He describes how the signal is encoded and what you must do to extract the information. It is assumed that you have already worked in communications theory.

The text also discusses the geometric considerations inherent in understanding the ephemeris data. At one point, we are taken back to basic astronomy and Kepler's laws of motion!

Another reviewer has remarked that the code samples seem incomplete or wrong. Even so, keep in mind that this is only a small portion of the text. The explanations of the theory appear well founded.
