You need to go back to basic physics is you do not thing that
   speed = (p2 - p2) / (t2 - t1)  

I did not specify how gpsd decides what to set speed to in the JSON.  It
varies a lot by input, Your input is garbage, so the output will be
garbage.

gpsd needs the time change to determine new fixes.  And then to decide
what to output.  Your time does not change, so that confuses gpsd.
Garbage in, garbage ou.

Fix your input.
