First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system mounted to an object for detecting repetitive motion of the object, comprising:
- a GPS receiver for receiving GPS signals while being maneuvered in a repetitive motion by the object;
a processor for detecting repetitive phase shifts in the received GPS signals, and computing the repetitive motion of the GPS receiver based on the repetitive phase shifts.

Abstract
A system mounted to an object for detecting repetitive motion of the object. The system includes a GPS receiver for receiving GPS signals while being maneuvered in a repetitive motion by the object, and a processor for detecting repetitive phase shifts in the received GPS signals. In general, the system computes the repetitive motion of the GPS receiver based on the repetitive phase shifts.
