as a navigation receiver 7, in particular, a sensor of the satellite navigation system GPS NAVSTAR, working on signals from at least 12 satellites, was used, providing both standard and geodetic accuracy of determining the coordinates of an object depending on the configuration.

As a transceiver 11, modem 10, receivers 24, 38, transmitters 26, 36, in particular, devices were used that implement GSM mobile communication in SMS format, short messages, according to the exchange protocols.

The system operates as follows.

User equipment 2 is mounted on a guarded object. After connecting all the nodes and blocks included in the user equipment, a command from DC 1 is sent to the power supply unit 3 to turn on the system, and it starts to function in the tracking mode of the object. In this case, the equipment 2 processes signals carrying navigation and service information about the object. From the navigation receiver 7 having a GPS antenna 8, data on the current location, speed and direction of movement of the object obtained from the GPS satellite navigation system are received once every 15 seconds through the interface 14 to the processor 16.

Further, these data are processed in the processor 16 of block 9, encoded by special programs for protection from unauthorized access in a cellular data network and transferred automatically to DC1. The frequency of receipt of navigation information in DC 1 can vary from 45 seconds to 24 hours and is set by the operator of DC 1 with the appropriate control command, which is generated on computer 30 and through the channel a local network 29 - server 28 - modem transmitter 26 with antenna 27 is transmitted via a cellular communication channel to the antenna 12 of the transceiver 11, in the modem 10, in block 9 of the equipment 2 of the user.

For a given frequency of transmitting navigation data, block 9 compresses three consecutive (at regular intervals) measurements and through modem 10, transceiver 11, and antenna 12 transmits them in one SMS message to DC 1 (i.e., if transmission occurs every 45 sec, then measurements are taken every 15 sec). Thus, the cost of traffic in the cellular network is reduced by 3 times.

is carried out in block 3), the switching node 4 connects block 3 to the backup source 5. The capacity of the backup source 5 is constantly monitored by block 9, while in the power supply mode of the system from the standard source 6, the backup source 5 is recharged from it through node 4. This ensures uninterrupted power supply of equipment 2.

In the process of working on the indicator 22 of the control panel 18, the service and alarm (alarm) signals generated in block 9 are displayed. In particular, service signals carry information about the operating modes of equipment 2 (disabled, turned on, maintenance of the facility, parking in energy-saving mode, alarm), about leaving the GSM zone, about malfunctioning of equipment nodes 2, about the lack of coordinates, about switching to a backup power source etc. Alarms carry information about unauthorized entry into the facility, about the need to call an ambulance, technical, legal assistance, about the need for power support, about the loss of communication in the cellular network, etc. Different modes and conditions of the object corresponds to a certain color and / or the nature of the glow of the indicator 22.

All signals from user equipment 2 in coded form in SMS - short messages format are received in a GSM cellular network supported in the given region by the respective operator of this network, and through the base station closest to DC 1, they are transmitted to the modem receiver 24 with equipment antenna 25 23 main radio channels. Then it is decoded in the server 28 and is already in the clear form broadcast over the network 29 to its subscribers.

Navigation signals arrive at a frequency specified by the operator and are transmitted to any of the computers 30, which displays the location of the object, its direction of movement, speed, trajectory of the route, etc. on the background of a digital road map of the area.

Service signals are automatically received from the equipment 2 by the user. In the data center 1 once at the moment of their appearance and are displayed on computers 30 in the corresponding screen windows.

The light 31 and sound 32 indicators of DC 1 are turned on, and the operator provides continuous support for the protected object against the background of a road map, which is automatically centered in the form of a selected full-screen and partial screen window

relative to this object and automatically moves behind it when the object reaches the boundaries of the map on the screen. In addition, the operator, if necessary, redirects emergency information with the appropriate command on the computer 30 via any of the circuits: server 33 — transmitter-modem 36 with antenna 37 or server 33 — fax modem 42 or server 33 — radio modem 44 with antenna 45 to the corresponding cellular channels 41, telephone 43, trunking 46, or Internet communications to remote workstations 40 (cordless telephones 48 or computers 30).

The operator in DC1 can also use the computer 30 to form a command and transmit it along the network network 29 — server 28 of equipment 23 or 35 — cellular network 41 — modem 10 with transceiver 11 and antenna 12 — processor 16 — interface 15 for activating the executive devices 14, thereby stopping the movement of the object or turning on the sound siren or forcibly closing the doors, etc.

All parcels between DC 1 and user equipment 2, DC 1 and remote stations 40 are confirmed by receipts of their receipt and reliability. In order to increase the reliability and protection of information in the cellular network, firstly, the signal processing server 28 encodes commands from the data center and decodes messages from the user equipment and vice versa. Secondly, the processor 16 of block 9, having received a command from the DC, checks it for compliance with the identifier of the modem transmitter 26 or 36, their phone numbers and the identifiers of SIM cards, with which the command is decoded by the processor. Server 28, and with a backup connection and server 33, having received messages from the user equipment 2, perform similar checks.

In the server 33 for 30 days all signals from the equipment 2 and the commands of the operators of the data center 1 from computers 30 are recorded in the form of a black box. Based on these data, the following reports are generated in a special form on the basis of the operator's command: daily, monthly, on the route of movement per shift. Reports are recorded on the printer and electronically can be transmitted to remote workstations 40. Danny black box every 30 days are transferred to magneto-optical discs for archiving.

In the event of failure of the equipment 23 of the main radio channel or server 28, the communication of the data center 1 with the user equipment 2 is carried out using the equipment 35 of the backup radio channel via radio transmission and reception channels, including a modem-transmitter 36 with an antenna 37 and

a receiver modem 38 with an antenna 39. The processing of radio signals passing through the backup radio channels is carried out in the server 33. The backup radio equipment 35 is activated automatically by a command executed by the server 33 in case of failure of the main radio communication equipment 23 or server 28, or manually DC 1 operator.

In order to save the resource of power sources 5 or 6, it is advisable to put the system into energy saving mode when setting up an object for a long parking period. The specified mode is set by pressing the button 19 on the remote control 18. In this case, the power to all nodes and blocks of the equipment 2 of the user is turned off, except for the supply of the healthy sensors 13 and the block 9 of the calculation and signal processing.
