1 Overview

The CrossCheck GSM mobile unit integrates the digital GSM (Global
System for Mobile Communications) cellular phone, an 8-channel
GPS receiver, a controller supporting the
logging functions into a single package. This package is designed as a
mobile communications system module for Automatic Vehicle
Location (AVL) and mobile asset management applications. It
operates over the GSM cellular network allowing simple, fast, and
efficient transfer of information between the vehicle and base station.

1.1 The CrossCheck GSM Mobile Unit

The CrossCheck GSM Cellular mobile unit consists of a single board
with integrated:
GSM cellular transceiver module
High-sensitivity, 8-channel GPS receiver
Controller featuring the IQEvent Engine and data-logging functions integrated into a single package for mobile positioning and tracking applications.
IQ
Event Engine
, and data-
This product’s features and functions are similar to other products in
the CrossCheck family including the CrossCheck AMPS and
CrossCheck XR.
The CrossCheck GSM is housed in a single compact enclosure that
simplifies the installation procedure and leads to greater reliability.
The unit contains an integrated fully featured GSM Normal Mobile
Station (MS) transceiver that supports data, voice, and SMS modes of
CrossCheck GSM Operation Manual 1-1
Overview
operation. The GSM transceiver is designed to operate in dual-band at
900 MHz and1900 MHz.
The IQEvent Engine is a sophisticated event handler that allows the
CrossCheck GSM to be programmed or configured to respond to a
wide variety of events and signals.
Data logging is also supported, allowing the CrossCheck GSM to
store 2500 to 3000 records for subsequent download.
The CrossCheck GSM will support a variety of peripherals via its
standard RS232, MDT/Aux. interface. This interface supports TSIP,
TAIP, NMEA and GSM (ETSI 07.07, 07.05 and V.25ter) protocols.
The ability to use voice communication over the GSM network is
provided by an optional handset with an integral keypad and display.
For safety and security this feature supports hands-free operation
using an external loudspeaker and a separate microphone.
The CrossCheck GSM is designed to operate in a mobile environment
and accommodates supply voltages between 9 – 32 volts.
GSM and GPS antennas are required for operation. You also must
install a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) that has been initialized by
your GSM service provider.
The standard CrossCheck GSM configuration does not include a GPS
or GSM antenna as the type of antenna required depends on the
application, and these must be ordered separately.

1.2 CrossCheck GSM Applications

Trimble Mobile Positioning & Communication (MPC) provides you with the core products around which you can build systems and applications for managing your transport and logistics assets.
MPC products address the need for an end-to-end solution. They provide the building blocks at both ends of the asset management system including the on-board units mounted in the vehicle and the software installed at the fixed base station.
The on-board components are centered on the CrossCheck GSM, (the GPS receiver with integrated can use the CrossCheck GSM as a standalone unit or you can interface it with external accessories and sensors to make it function as part of an on-board system.
Optional external units include a Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) to provide a driver interface to exchange messages or generate manual

and a GSM phone). You
event reports, and a handset for use where voice communication is required.
You can use the Trimble FleetVision software package at the base station, as a standalone fleet management system or as the communications platform for an integrated system. FleetVision features include event and alarm reporting, data handling, as well as map displays, allowing you to view the positions of mobile assets in real-time or replayed for analysis purposes. FleetVision includes an External System Interface (ESI) package. This gives system integrators and application developers the ability to customize the system by interfacing to third-party “back office systems” such as order/stock processing, route optimization systems, and the like.

1.4 Global Systems for Mobile Communications

Cellular mobile telephone systems have been widely available throughout the world. However, because cellular mobile telephone systems are regulated at the national level, these systems are not generally compatible with each other. To resolve this dilemma of being able to communicate from almost anywhere, but only within your own system, The European telecommunications operators (the Conference of European Postal and Telecommunications Administration, or CEPT) designed a new mobile telephone network. This network has evolved into GSM, and CEPT has turned over management of GSM to the European Technical Standards Institute (ETSI). GSM is the predominant mobile communications system throughout Europe and GSM is also widely available throughout the world.

1.4.1 GSM Cellular Phone System

The Global Standard for Mobile (GSM) protocol offers a variety of data services that allow users to send and receiv e data at rates of up to 9600 bps. Data may be delivered over ISDN, Packet Switched or Circuit Switched Data Networks (PSDN or CSDN) and via the Short Message Service (SMS).
Overview
SMS is a store and forward service for the bi-directional exchange of alphanumeric messages of up to 160 characters.
Architecture of the GSM network
An Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) or Asset Management System based on GSM consists of several distinct components. The Crosscheck GSM is the mobile unit that is installed in the vehicle and contains the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM). The SIM card contains a unique International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) number. This enables the network to identify the user and therefore allow the terminal to have access to specific, subscriber services.
The GSM “cloud” is made up of two sections:
CrossCheck GSM Operation Manual 1-7
Overview
The Base Station Subsystem that controls the radio link with
the mobiles through local cells
The Network Subsystem that controls the switching of calls
between the network users, mobile to mobile, and between
mobile and fixed lines The Network Subsystem stores all administrative information
including the current cell being used by the mobile unit which allows call routing and the roaming ability of GSM. An important feature of GSM is this ability to move across international and network borders, a feature that is described as “roaming.” If arrangements have been made with the service provider, the SIM card will be enabled for roaming.
Mobile Station (MS)
CrossCheck GSM includes a radio transmitter, receiver and voice encoder, decoder. The optional Voice Upgrade Kit includes a handset.
Subscriber Identify Module (SIM)—an electronic card containing a computer chip. The chip contains the subscriber information and operating system parameters. SIMs provide authentication, encryption, information storage, and subscriber account protection services (including Personal Identification Number or PIN, and Pin Unblocking Key or PUK). GSM users can move the SIM from one CrossCheck GSM to another.
Other network components
Voicemail System (VMS)— delivers messages and pages
to GSM users.
Short Message Service Center (SMSC)—delivers text
messages (up to 160 characters) to GSM users.
Executable Short Message Platform—delivers commands
to the SIM card via an over-the-air interface.
