Global Positioning System (GPS), which made its start as a military application, has become a viable tool for many commercial and personal applications. One such application has been a Vehicle Location Tracking System (VLTS). These tracking systems incorporate a GPS receiver and a wireless transceiver that allow a remote unit to track the vehicles position. The wireless communication network has been evolving to help with network traffic and effective throughput. An emerging standard for wireless communication is the Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) technology. A system to track the location and performance data is being developed to further the advancement in fleet management and emergency responders.
