GPS : (Global Positioning System) For any point of the earth’s surface, there’re about 6 GPS satellites in the sky GPS was firstly used for navigation purposes , but now it is also used to communicate our position Along with it, the GSM and Wi-fi signals are methods used by phones to find our location.
