The VMSS (Vehicle Monitoring and

Security System) is a GPS based vehicle tracking
system that is used for security applications. The
project uses two main underlying concepts. These are
GPS (Global Positioning System) and GSM (Global
System for Mobile Communication). The main
application of this system in this context is tracking the
vehicle to which the GPS is connected, giving the
information about its position whenever required and
for the security of each person travelling by the vehicle.
This is done with the help of the GPS satellite and the
GPS module attached to the vehicle which needs to be
tracked. The GPS antenna present in the GPS module
receives the information from the GPS satellite in
NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association)
format and thus it reveals the position information. This
information got from the GPS antenna has to be sent to
the Base station wherein it is decoded. For this we use
GSM module which has an antenna too. Thus we have
at the Base station; the complete data about the vehicle.

operational efficiency and utilization of the

vehicles.
GPS is used in the vehicles for both tracking and
navigation. Tracking systems enable a base station
to keep track of the vehicles without the
intervention of the driver whereas navigation
system helps the driver to reach the destination.
Whether navigation system or tracking system, the
architecture is more or less similar. The navigation
system will have convenient, usually a graphic
display for the driver which is not needed for the
tracking system. Vehicle tracking systems combine
a number of well-developed technologies.
To design the VMSS system, we combined the
GPSs ability to pin-point location along with the
ability of the Global System for Mobile
Communications (GSM) to communicate with a
control center in a wireless fashion. The system
includes GPS-GSM modules and a base station
called
the
control
center.
Let us briefly explain how VMSS works. In order
to monitor the vehicle, it is equipped with a
GPS-GSM VMSS system. It receives GPS signals
from satellites, computes the location information,
and then sends it to the control center. With the
vehicle location information, the control center
displays all of the vehicle positions on an electronic
map in order to easily monitor and control their
routes. Besides tracking control, the control center
can also maintain wireless communication with the
GPS units to provide other services such as alarms,
status
control,
and
system
updates.
The design takes into consideration important
factors regarding both position and data
communication. Thus, the project integrates
location determination (GPS) and cellular (GSM)
two distinct and powerful technologies in a single
system.
Along with tracking the vehicle, the system is used

for security applications as well. Each
passenger/employee will have an ID of their own
and will be using a remote containing key for Entry,
Exit and Panic. The Panic button is used by the
driver or the passenger so as to alert the concerned
of emergency conditions. On pressing this button,
an alarm will be activated which will help the
passenger/employee in emergencies and keep them
secure throughout the journey. The vehicle can also
be immobilized remotely
INTRODUCTION
Of all the applications of GPS, Vehicle tracking

and navigational systems have brought this
technology to the day-to-day life of common man.
Today GPS fitted cars, ambulances, fleets and
police vehicles are common sights on the roads of
developed countries. Known by many names such
as Automatic Vehicle Locating System (AVLS),
Vehicle Tracking and Information System (VTIS),
Mobile Asset Management System (MAMS), these
systems offer an effective tool for improving the

on electronic maps via the Internet or specialized

software. Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
provides a current, spatial, visual representation of
transit operations. It is a special type of
computerized database management system in
which geographic databases are related to one via a
common set of location coordinates.
Stages of Vehicle Monitoring

and Security System
STAGE 1:
Driver starts his trip from the transport office.
VMSS transmits the Driver I.D and the Vehicle I.D
along with the position of the vehicle to the base
station.
Vehicle Monitoring and Security System design

VMSS is based on a PIC microcontroller-based
system equipped with a GPS receiver and a GSM
Module operating in the 900 MHz band. We
housed the parts in one small plastic unit, which
was then mounted on the vehicle and connected to
GPS and GSM antennas. The position, identity,
heading, and speed are transmitted either
automatically at user-defined time intervals or
when a certain event occurs with an assigned
message (e.g.; accident, alert, or leaving/entering
an
admissible
geographical
area).
The GPS Module outputs the vehicle location
information such as longitude, latitude, direction,
and Greenwich Time every five minutes. The GSM
wireless communications function is based on a
GSM network established in a valid region and
with a valid service provider. Via the SMS
provided by the GSM network, the location
information and the status of the GPS-GSM VMSS
are sent to the control center. Meanwhile, the
VMSS receives the control information from the
control center via the same SMS. Next, the
GPS-GSM VMSS sends the information stored in
the microcontroller via an RS-232 interface.
Stage 1 of Vehicle Monitoring and Security System

STAGE 2:
Taxi picks up the employee/passenger from their
residence. VMSS transmits the Passenger I.D and
the Vehicle I.D along with the position of the
vehicle to the base station. Therefore base station
will be able to keep a track of the vehicle and thus
the employee/passenger.
There are two ways to use the VMSS alarm

function, which can be signified by either a buzzer
or presented on LCD. The first way is to receive the
command from the control center; second way is to
manually send the alarm information to the control
center with the push of a button .The base station
consists of landline modem(s) and GIS
workstation. The information about the vehicle is
received at a base station and is then displayed on a
PC based map. Vehicle information can be viewed

STAGE 3:
Taxi drops the employee/passenger to the
workplace. VMSS transmits the Passenger I.D and
vehicle to the base station.

STAGE 4:
Taxi picks the employee/passenger from the
workplace. VMSS transmits the Passenger I.D and
vehicle to the base station. Therefore this enables
the base station to estimate the time if required and
also keep a track of the vehicle, passenger and the
driver.
STAGE 5:
Taxi drops the employee/passenger to their
residence VMSS transmits the Passenger I.D and
the vehicle I.D along with the position of the
vehicle to the base station and makes sure that the
job is 100% complete.

CONCLUSION
In this modern, fast moving and insecure world, it
is become a basic necessity to be aware of ones
safety. Maximum risks occur in situations wherein
an employee travels for money transactions. Also
the Company to which he belongs should be aware
if there is some problem. What if the person
traveling can be tracked and also secured in the
case of an emergency?! Fantastic, isnt? Of course
it is and heres a system that functions as a tracking
and a security system. Its the VMSS. This system
can deal with both pace and security.
