ABSTRACT: The paper describes the processor-based equipment designed for the purpose of traffic means localisation. Data transmission is realised through GSM modem as a standard component of GSM phones. Control station gets a data set from GPS receiver based on the given command and identification through SIM module. Data is used to determine exact time, transaction date, geographical position, instantaneous velocity as well as azimuth. After transferring data into digital map the operator can observe a place of traffic means. Transaction requires transmission of minimal data volume (ca 80 Byte) which is a minimal load for created mobile phone connection. The paper describes essential technical details characterizing the developed equipment and obtained experience.
KEYWORDS: Global Positioning System (GPS), GPS Receiver, Vehicle Localisation, GSM Modem, NMEA Protocol, Control Algorithm
