The actual systems vary, but use orbit inclinations of >50° and orbital periods of roughly twelve hours (height 20,000 km / 12,500 miles).<a href="http://www.resumeminers.com/universities/agriculture-degree.htm"> Hadilf Otler</a> The global coverage for each system is generally achieved by a constellation of 20–30 Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites spread between several orbital planes.

An orbital "plane" can be thought of as the difference between Earth's equator and the flight path of a satellite. The satellites are arranged on 6 planes, each of them containing at least 4 slots where satellites can be arranged equidistantly.<a href="http://www.healthstorebargains.com/srch/srch.php?q=allergy"> Delta V</a> The altitude of GPS satellite orbits is about 20,200 km.
