Abstract
This paper studies the error analysis of determining airplane location by global positioning system (GPS) using statistical testing method. The Newton Rhapson method positions the airplane at the intersection point of four spheres. Absolute errors, relative errors and standard deviation have been calculated. The results show that the positioning error of the airplane varies with the coordinates of GPS satellite and the airplane.
