ENAiKOON inmarsat-locate-02 is the successful combination of the following components:
- Inmarsat modem
- GSM/GPRS modem
- GPS receiver
- Powerful computer
The Inmarsat modem enables the bi-directional transmission of data via Inmarsat satellites.
Advantages:
- Functions worldwide, even in remote parts of the globe (ocean, desert, rainforest, war zones...)
- Slow data transmission rate
- Only suitable for small volumes of data
- Relatively high power consumption
Transmits data via the mobile communications network.
Advantages:
- Fast
- Inexpensive domestic data transmission
- Only works where mobile communications infrastructure is in place
- Costly use abroad
Enables the worldwide determination of its own position, accurate to a few meters.
Ensures that both the processing of the diverse data and the data transmission function reliably. The computer selects the optimal manner of data transmission in each case.
Typical applications for the combination of INMARSAT and GPRS:
- Applications where security is critical, and therefore require a second radio channel
- Applications which demand the immediate availability of vehicle data all over the world
- International transport which is to be monitored at the lowest possible cost (cost optimisation)
ENAiKOON inmarsat-locate-02 is 100% compatible with the ENAiKOON M2M-commserver.
