Re: reply

Hi,
   This project I did was on fleet management & vehicle tracking. Here we 
were supposed to develop a software, that, from the vehicle side access the 
GPS data (using any third party GPS receiver), extract the required details 
from it and than add data from the sensors placed in the vehicle, repackage 
it (so that it can fit in a single SMS message), and send it to a remote 
server.
The server, then would unpack it and put the data extracted from it into a 
database.
The operator sitting at a terminal(he/she can be far away from the server), 
will then be able to access these data if he/she provides proper 
authentication.

Foe the server-client interactions we developed our own teeny-weeny protocol 
that would use the underlying protocol (in out project we used TCP/IP, since 
it was a simulation. But practically, we should use GSM) to transmit the 
data.

This is all about the project. As I said, since mobiles use cellular 
technology, you can at any instant of time have access at least three mobile 
base stations(since base stations keep track of your movements, for ensuring 
proper call hand over). This, can be used as the basis for triangulation 
(the same thing what GPS receivers do) and then u can know your location. 
But this location would be relative to that of the base, stations. If we 
know the exact lat. & lon. of these base stations, we can easily calculate 
ours.

Bye,
