Abstract :
The paper describes a low-cost hardware design of a GPS decoder that is compact enough to be installed inside a vehicle. The decoder operates on a portable power supply or car battery and obtains raw tracking data (position/velocity) from a GPS receiver for processing. It can be easily interfaced with a microcomputer to perform specific application such as road mapping using a graphical user interface (GUI) software program
