he gol of his projct is to design nd develop of Globl Posiioning System
(GPS) navigation gidnce system for AUV. he GPS is a satellite bsed on navigation
systm tht sends nd receivs rdio sinls. A GPS receiver cquires these sils nd
provides with informaion. Using GPS technoloy you cn detemine locion, velocity nd
time, 24 hours a day in ny wathr condiion nywhere in he wold for ree. he device
ws designed to interfce wih ny GPS rceiver cpble of oupuing NEA v3.01 MC, sentences via FT232R UART nd USB connection. is projet is sing Smt GPS
Receiver model EB-85A nd GPS Engine Bord model EB-230. The GPS Loctor Utility
version 2.61 nd GPSTrce vrsion 2.61 is n appliction prorm sed to nable EB-85A
o do he coigurtion on he unit. his dsign cold esily be xpnded nd de
poble for use in automobiles or oher vehicles. is projet ws intendd to demostrte
some ides ht cold be used to crete a commercially avilble GPS for AUV. he
scientiic comunity uses GPS for its precision timing cpability nd posiion information.
is device is sed in mility, avition, mine nd onsumer product pplictios. At s�
GPS is lso ypiclly used for navigation by rereational botrs, comrcil ishrmen,
nd profssionl mners.
