frame generation unit which is connected via its input/output to the common local network bus and is capable of synchronizing the system frames with the signals received from the satellite positioning system receiver, e.g. a GPS type one, and controlling the time structure of the transceiver system frame for message receipt/transmission from/to mobile and/or stationary system objects, and said control and monitoring center has a common local network bus interconnecting a telematic messaging server, a system frame parameter computer and a control information server, the latter one being interconnected with the mobile communication digital network control center for receiving commands to change the time structure of the message transceiver system frame in the telematic system in response to changes in the load of the digital mobile network in order to ensure the required quality of message transmission via its information channels, and the telematic messaging server is connected to the short messaging center or the GPS system of the digital mobile communication network for the transmission of control commands to the terminal devices.
Disadvantages of the known system are its complexity and the high cost related to the necessity of providing new expensive units.
Known is (RU 2259595) an alarming and positioning system for providing online information to involved persons or special services concerning potential threats to subscribers' safety. The system comprises a subscriber set comprising a mobile GSM phone with a Bluetooth wireless communication module. The phone provides for two-way data exchange via a standard communication and data exchange network with the provider equipment connected to the
control center. The subscriber has a hidden panic button and a GPS module each having its individual Bluetooth module which is capable of exchanging data with the Bluetooth module of a mobile phone. Using this set of technical means a subscriber can secretly transmit emergency messages and position data without taking the GSM phone out of the pocket or a bag due to the wireless communication between the GSM phone, the GPS module and the panic button. The control center is capable of cooperating with enforcement bodies.
Disadvantage of the known system is the impossibility of sending subscriber position data to the control center if the SIM card is absent or locked (because standard GSM network data transmission services are used) which significantly reduces system reliability.
Known is (WO Application 99/48070) a monitoring system comprising a set of object units connected to the respective GSM mobile phones the inputs/outputs of which are connected to the monitoring panel via a GSM communication channel and a GSM modem.
Said known monitoring system operates as follows.
The memory of the object units or their access devices provided in the form of GSM phones is preloaded with the monitoring panel phone number as a GSM subscriber to which messages should be sent by dialing or SMS messaging. Similarly, the monitoring panel on the basis of a PC is also preloaded with the GSM mobile phone numbers of the object units as GSM subscribers, and a GSM modem is connected to the monitoring panel. An object unit controls any change in the status of the alarms connected to it. If the status of any of the
alarms changes, the object unit activates its GSM mobile phone to dial the monitoring panel GSM modem phone number. The GSM mobile phone attempts dialing and establishing a stable communication channel with the monitoring panel and informs the object unit thereof which then transmits the appropriate messages to the monitoring panel PC via the established communication channel. Upon the receipt and analysis of the message the monitoring panel sends a confirmation message to the object unit confirming normal or abnormal message receipt by establishing communication with the object unit in the reverse order as described above. Moreover, appropriate control commands can be transmitted to the object unit in the form of messages during the communication session initiated by the monitoring panel. The object unit executes the command messages so received by controlling the respective devices connected thereto.
Data transmission in the form of SMS messages between the object units and the monitoring panel in this monitoring system is similar to the procedures described above, the only difference being that the communication is established via the SMS network server of the selected GSM operator.
Disadvantages of the known monitoring system are as follows: messages can be delivered in an unacceptably long time or lost when the SMS server is overloaded; data transmission or receipt confirmation is only possible in point-to-point mode with sequential dialing and communication establishing; there are no permanently connected and controlled communication channels between the monitoring panel and the object units; the system applicability is
limited due to the use of only one GSM communication channel and low data security level in the communication channel; impossibility of online operation with a large number of object units; lack of video and audio control, biometric identification and audio alarming facilities.
Knowin is (RU Patent 6674368) a monitoring system based on the use of external global positioning navigation systems such as GPS. A moving object is equipped with an active object identification device such as a transponder, a tag, a RF identifier or a radio mark (these are different names of this type of devices) having periodical communication with a global positioning system and a central tracking station. Precision positioning requires high quality reception of navigation radio signals which is significantly impaired by local topography, structures in metropolitan areas and poor radio permeability of the ambient media for the tag signals. Thus, the precision of moving object tracking in metropolitan areas, especially in megalopolises, is far lower.
Known is (WO Application 0132480) a mobile object monitoring system comprising a GSM transceiver providing for the receipt of object position coordinates signals and the transmission of identification and position signals to the central control station. Said system will only operate reliably in areas where multiple (more than 3) base GSM standard stations of the same operator are located which is not always the case. This condition is met in large megalopolises and highly populated areas. However, in low-populated areas (this is of special importance for Russia) a necessary infrastructure is absent
for economic reasons. This fact imposes serious limitations upon the application of said system.
Known is (RU Application 98123169) a control system for the control of multiple mobile objects each of which is equipped with a receipt and response terminal, said system comprising multiple stationary units providing communication with said receipt and response terminals and comprising means for measuring the speed at which each receipt and response terminal moves away from or towards a stationary unit. The receipt and response terminal communication channel capacity is limited, and this imposes a limitation on the critical number of said mobile objects. Normal logics of data processing and interaction between the central unit and the mobile objects requires a complex architecture of unit interaction comparable with GSM network architecture, which is not always practical.
Known is (WO Application 0106401) a mobile object movement and status control system comprising multiple RF identifiers connected to or mounted on the moving objects and interacting with the readers installed in fixed locations at predetermined intervals and transmitting information to the central controller which provides for data analysis to locate and determine the status of the moving objects.
Disadvantage of the known system is the complexity of control infrastructure across long distance movement routes because data transmission from the readers to the remote central station where the information collecting controller is located is a very expensive task
which may be economically impractical. Furthermore, data loss may occur if communication quality is poor.
