History of GPS

• 1978- The first experimental Block-I GPS satellite was launched.• 1983- After Soviet interceptor aircraft shot down the civilian airliner KAL 007

in restricted Soviet airspace, killing all 269 people on board, U.S. President Ronald Reagan announced that the GPS system would be made available for civilian uses once it was completed.

• 1985- Ten more experimental Block-I satellites had been launched to validate the concept.

• 1989-On February 14, 1989, the first modern Block-II satellite was launched.• 1991-The oldest GPS satellite still in operation was launched in August 1991.• 1992-The 2nd Space Wing, which originally managed the system, was de-

activated and replaced by the 50th Space Wing in 1992.• 1993-1994 By December 1993 the GPS system achieved initial operational

capability and a complete constellation of 24 satellites was in orbit by January 17, 1994.

• 2000-2004 In 2004, U.S. President George W. Bush updated the national policy, replacing the executive board with the National Space-Based Positioning, Navigation, and Timing Executive Committee.

• 2006 The most recent launch was on 17 November 2006.

“Why to choose this Project” The idea of this project comes from the transport

system of our college. Which is very poorly managed and all records are on paper works which really not look good as an engineering perspective. Transport Manager manage all records on the paper or files with that he do not have any system through which he can trace the location of all the vehicle and can coordinate them. Therefore we decided to develop such a concept which can give this all facilities to our college and our transport system become advance in terms of technology.

IntroductionVehicle Tracking systemVehicle Tracking System combines the use of automatic vehicle location in individual Vehicles with software that collects these fleet data for a compressive picture of vehicle location. Modern vehicle tracking system commonly use GPS (Global Position System) technology for locating the vehicle. Vehicle information can be viewed as electronic map.

GPS Tracking systemThis device fits into the vehicle and captures the GPS location information apart from other vehicle information at regular intervals to a central server. The vehicle information includes fuel, amount, engine, temperature, altitude etc .

DRAWBACKS

1. Signals can become degraded and the receiver system may not provide location information . The situations can occur in dense vegetation.

2. Large or tall buildings grouped closely together can cause large multi path and fading errors that may affect the ability to track offenders.

3. Signals can be lost when an offender is riding in a car or other enclosed means of transportation.

4. Signal strength can become degraded by moisture such as rainfall, fog, or snowfall.

GPS vs GSMGPS GSM

GPS helps us to find the exact location of the vehicle.

GSM only give the location not the exact location.

GPS uses satellites to find the location of the vehicle.

GSM uses base station to find the location.

It is costly but effective. It is cheaper but less costly.

GPS can be used in any geographical area on the earth.

GSM is only used where base station are implemented.

It uses longitude and latitude coordinates to find the location.

It is used distance of the base station from one other

More accurate Less Accurate

Better Technology Not better as compared to GPS

ConclusionVehicle tracking systems becoming increasingly important in large cities and it is more secured than other systems. Now a day’s vehicle theft is rapidly increasing, with this we can have a good control in it. This technology can also help to advance the system of transportation and can be used in many organization for security purpose and tracking purpose.

Future Scope

There Future of Vehicle Tracking System using GPS in various fields such as•Security Issues•Military Purpose•Navigation System•Fuel Consumption•Tracking Systems
