Which risk increases when an orbiting GPS satellite's clock drifts?

💡 Explanation

Coordinate error increases because general relativity's spacetime curvature requires synchronization; without correction, gravitational time dilation accumulates rather than canceling. Therefore, position calculations become inaccurate due to misinterpreted signal arrival times, rather than any effect on signal integrity itself.
