This is a test smple I build for US Army handhold GPS navigation device (contract)
It can operate without GPS signal.
Environment such as underground cave, tunnel, deep canyon, underwater, lake, rive, ocean, GPS signal is not avaliable.
This device design to work in such environment.
Not like the GPS in your car dashboard.

Note:
Dense materials (such as concrete, rock, steel, heavy wood), tall buildings, terrain features (like mountains, ridges, and cliffs), and large trees can block or degrade GPS signals and may make it impossible to determine your location. It is well known that the ordinary Global Positioning System (GPS) fails to provide location and time information under water. The reason is that the electromagnetic signals from the orbiting satellites are heavily damped in water and hence can not be detected by the receiver in most cases of interest.
Therefor GPS device used in US Airforce Navy Marine Army must work without GPS signal without internet without cell phone signal and any other radio signal.
