Explanation
External GPS receivers connect to mobile devices via Bluetooth, a short-range wireless protocol well-suited for low-bandwidth, continuous data streams like GPS coordinates. Many vehicles and dedicated GPS units use Bluetooth to pair with smartphones and transmit location data. A wired data link cable is impractical for GPS use in motion. Infrared requires line-of-sight and is largely obsolete for this purpose. A wireless access point provides Internet connectivity, not GPS signal reception.
