PREFACE

One important aspect of doing Engineering is gaining the hands-on experience which helps in the over-all understanding and development of a student in his career. Practical knowledge is very important in every field as believed by everyone.

One must be familiar with the problems related to that field and that is the reason for making projects our engineering curriculum prescribes for a major project in final year.

As true for every student, after the successful completion of engineering study, An Engineer has to serve an industry, may be public sector, private sector or self-owned.

To be a good Engineer, one must be aware of practical environment, new technology & know-how about successful management, industrial aspects such as supply of materials, so as to tackle problems successfully as and when times require.

I had the same in mind when I applied for major project. Developing leadership skills, harnessing management qualities, and participating actively in discussions and alike have surely contributed a lot to my understanding of the project.

This report has been prepared on the basis of knowledge acquired by me during the period of making project GSM AND GPS BASED PERSONAL SECURITY SYSTEM.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The satisfaction and euphoria that successful completion of any task would be incomplete sans the mention of the people who made it possible, whose constant guidance and encouragement crown our effort with success.

First, I would like to express my whole hearted thanks to the invisible, the indomitable God for His blessings showered upon me in enabling me to complete this project on time.

I would like to extend our heartiest thanks to the Management of my college, who provided me with the necessities for the completion of the project.

This is to thank and express our gratitude to my college ARAVALI Institute of technical studies, Udaipur for giving me an opportunity to pursue and successfully complete my project.

Deepest and Sincere gratitude to Mrs. Archna Nagda, Mr.Aabhas Mathur, Mr.Anand Jain, for the countless patience and guidance, without whom the successful completion of the target project would not have been possible..

I am deeply indebted to the management, all the teachers and my friends who were cooperative during my project and I take the moment to really appreciate the organizational culture of AITS.

Last but not the least I would like to thank RTU who have setup such a fine institution which is committed to the progress of the country setting various records and achievements in the process.

ABSTRACT
An integrated GPS-GSM system is proposed to track a person using Google Earth application. The remote module has a GPS mounted on the moving person to identify his current position, and to be transferred by GSM by an SMS to a recipient station. The received GPS coordinates are filtered using a microcontroller to enhance the accuracy of measured position. After data processing, Google Earth application is used to view the current location and status of a person. The goal of this system is for safety purpose. These systems are implemented using several hybrid techniques that include: wireless communication, geographical positioning and embedded applications. This module composes of: a GPS receiver, Microcontroller and a GSM Modem. The GPS Receiver retrieves the location information from satellites in the form of latitude and longitude real-time readings. The Microcontroller has three main tasks: to read certain signaling parameters , to processes the GPS information to extract desired values and to transmit this data to the server using GSM modem by SMS.
