ABSTRACT:
A GPS reception arrangement includes a GPS radome body having an upper body portion, a lower body portion and a peripheral body portion between the upper body portion and the lower body portion and extending circumferentially there around, and a GPS antenna positioned inside the radome body. A plurality of light sources on the peripheral body portion of the radome body project light in a manner to identify the GPS radome, and distinguish it from other radomes. Retroreflective material is positioned around the radome body on the peripheral body portion, adjacent the plurality of light sources.
