The satellite signals received by the rear global positioning system (GPS) antenna (A2/23a2) are amplified in the integrated antenna amplifier.
The output signal is transferred to the GPS receiver via the coaxial antenna cable.
The GPS receiver is integrated into the:
- APS navigation processor APS (A2/30) on vehicles with APS (code 351) or
- radio and navigation unit (A2/56) on vehicles with Audio 30 APS (code 353)
- COMAND operating, display and control module (A40/3)
on vehicles with COMAND
On model 140 up to 30.11.96 and model 210.0 up to 31.05.96 the GPS receiver was still located in a separate housing of the global positioning system control module (GPS, N41/2) .
The rear global positioning system (GPS) antenna (A2/23a2) serves only for receiving GPS signals; no signals are transmitted.
