Active GPS tracking system and method for reporting position thereof
First Claim
1. An active GPS tracking system used to report a position of a target to a monitor center, comprising:
- a user setting interface, used to receive a reporting distance;
a distance trigger module, used to calculate a moving distance of the active GPS tracking system and generate and send an interrupt signal when the moving distance is greater than or equal to the reporting distance;
a GPS module that enters a working mode if receiving the interrupt signal, and used to determine a current position of the active GPS tracking system, and determine whether an actual displacement is greater than or equal to the reporting distance to determine if the current position is required to be reported; and
a wireless communication module, used to receive the current position from the GPS module, wherein if the actual displacement is greater than or equal to the reporting distance, the wireless communication module reports the current position to the monitor center; and
a processor to execute the user setting interface, the distance trigger module, the GPS module and the wireless communication module;
wherein the GPS module enters a sleep mode if sending the current position.

Abstract
An active GPS tracking system and method includes a user setting interface for receiving a reporting distance, a distance trigger module, a GPS module and a wireless communication module. The distance trigger module calculates a moving distance of the active GPS tracking system, and generates and sends an interrupt signals to the GPS module to make it enter a working mode when the moving distance is greater than or equal to the reporting distance. Then, the GPS module determines a current position of the active GPS tracking system and determines whether an actual displacement is greater than or equal to the reporting distance to determine if reporting the current position. If the actual displacement is greater than or equal to the reporting distance, the wireless communication module receives the current position from the GPS module, and reports to a monitor center.

7. A method of an active GPS tracking system reporting a position of a target to a monitor center comprising:
-
receiving a reporting distance, and making a GPS module determine and store an initial position and enter a sleep mode; calculating a moving distance of the active GPS tracking system; determining whether the moving distance is greater than or equal to the reporting distance; if the moving distance is greater than or equal to the reporting distance, generating and sending an interrupt signal to the GPS module; making the GPS module enter a working mode to determine a current position of the active GPS tracking system, and calculate an actual displacement of the active GPS tracking system; determining whether the actual displacement is greater than or equal to the reporting distance; and if the actual displacement is greater than or equal to the reporting distance, sending the current position of the active GPS tracking system to the wireless communication module, to report the current position to the monitor center, and entering the sleep mode. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10)
