Global Positioning System (A Review)

Accurate measurement of physical activity is a pre-requisite to monitor population physical activity levels and design effective interventions. Global Positioning System (GPS) technology offers potential to improve the measurement of physical activity. This paper 1) reviews the extant literature on the application of GPS to monitor human movement, with a particular emphasis on free-living physi...

Indoor Positioning Based on Global Positioning System Signals

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is highly reliable and accurate when used outdoors. However, in indoor environments, due to the additional signal loss incurred by the walls of the buildings, the detection and decoding of GPS signals becomes a difficult task. As a solution to the indoor area coverage problem, an indoor positioning system based on GPS repeaters and a modified positioning algo...

Global Positioning System (GPS) Bias Correction and

Seasonal variation in habitat selection by the mountain goat Oreamnos americanus is not well understood due to the difficulties of monitoring animal movement in all months of the year. The use of global positioning system (GPS) wildlife telemetry collars offers an opportunity to overcome this obstacle, however satellite acquisition problems associated with GPS wildlife telemetry collars create ...

A Global Positioning System Based Low Cost Vehicle Tracking System Design and Application

In this study, a GPS based vehicle tracking system which has lower cost than similar systems in the market is improved and realized. The system has been tested in Uludag University Campus and the positions of mobile vehicles have been observed with high accuracy from the control center. In this project GM 300 analog two-way radio is used for the communication between mobile vehicles and the con...
