Answer: GPS is a Global Positional System

Explanation: What does a GPS need to function?

ans. So in simple words, GPS works as a transmitter and receiver so when your phone sends a signal to a satellite the satellite checks with other satellites on where you are on the globe and then it does so much calculation to find a precise location on where you are and sends that location to you.
