First, the L1 frequency broadcasts at 1575.42 MHz, while the L2 broadcasts at 1227.6 MHz. Some newer satellites use the L5 frequency, which is 1176 MHz.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, L1 remains the most popular of the three frequencies used in all GPS devices and equipment. L1 frequencies track the GPS satellite location. L2 frequency monitors the health of the GPS satellites. L5 frequency has civilian applications, such as precision landing and aircraft guidance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-are-the-benefits-of-using-the-different-gps-frequencies\">What Are the Benefits of Using the Different GPS Frequencies?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Each <a href=\"https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/gps-installation-guide\/\">GPS frequency<\/a> offers unique features that come with advantages and disadvantages. First and foremost, the L1 frequency is the oldest GPS signal, with military and civilian applications. L2 is newer and more robust than L1, also used for civilian and military purposes. L5 is the latest and most advanced GPS frequency. However, it&#8217;s still in its early stages of use for particularly demanding applications like aviation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"907\" height=\"811\" src=\"https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/QQ\u622a\u56fe20221126181359.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1077\" srcset=\"https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/QQ\u622a\u56fe20221126181359.jpg 907w, https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/QQ\u622a\u56fe20221126181359-300x268.jpg 300w, https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/QQ\u622a\u56fe20221126181359-768x687.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 907px) 100vw, 907px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-does-gps-workhow-is-the-gps-signal-transmitted\">How Does GPS Work\/How Is the GPS Signal Transmitted?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/01\/23\/opinion\/gps-vulnerable-alternatives-navigation-critical-infrastructure.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">GPS systems<\/a> work through a network of satellites orbiting the Earth.
