WMS
WMS or Wide area Master Station is a ground based co-ordinating station in the WAAS GPS sensor grid. These function to co-ordinate the information sent from GPS satellites and WRS ground-based stations, in order to create a triangulated, 3D spatial location for the user. They also use this data to calculate if a satellite or WRS signal has moved from where it should have originated from, to determine if there is a fault in the system.
The WMS then transmits the completed signal to a satellite or stratellite for delivery back to the originator.
