A COST EFFECTIVE REAL-TIME TRACKING SYSTEM PROTOTYPE USING INTEGRATED GPS GPRS MODULE
A COST EFFECTIVE REAL-TIME TRACKING SYSTEM
PROTOTYPE USING INTEGRATED GPS GPRS MODULE
This Project presents an automotive localization system using GPS and GSM- SMS
services. The system permits localization of the automobile and transmitting the position to the
owner on his mobile phone as a short message (SMS) at his request.
The system can be interconnected with the car alarm system and alert the owner on his
mobile phone. This tracking system is composed of a GPS receiver, Microcontroller and a GSM
Modem. GPS Receiver gets the location information from satellites in the form of latitude and
longitude.
The Microcontroller processes this information and this processed information is sent to
the user/owner using GSM modem. The presented application is a low cost solution for
automobile position and status, very useful in case of car theft situations, for monitoring
adolescent drivers by their parents as well as in car tracking system applications. The proposed
solution can be used in other types of application, where the information needed is requested
rarely and at irregular period of time (when requested)
This project uses regulated 5V, 750mA power supply. 7805 three terminal voltage
regulator is used for voltage regulation. Bridge type full wave rectifier is used to rectify the ac
output of secondary of 230/18V step down transformer
