This paper presents a new development of mobile communication for application to remote data transmission and control. The concept of G3 , including global positioning system, global system for mobile (GSM), and geographic information system, is proposed. In this paper, a GSM real-time control system for data uplink and downlink remote terminals is considered. The proposed system can be implemented on a PC-based or a P-based to integrate into G3 configuration. This paper presents the system design and implementation with practical data verification. The proposed GSM real-time control system has accomplished a very reliable two-way point-to-point uplink and downlink data transmission within a 0.6-s time delay.

THE worldwide trend for wireless communication has elevated into wide band data instead of voice only. Real-time

point-to-point data reporting architecture is useful for remote

surveillance and control, if communication network can be convenient to access. In civil aeronautical service, the concept of

automatic dependent surveillance (ADS) is one of the important applications with positioning and communication in realtime. Wireless data reporting has to elect proper communication media with analog and digital data transmission capability.

Communication media are varied using UHF, VHF, or HF with

critical limitations. It is difficult to develop into livelihood applications for real-time control or surveillance. As for remote communication and control, wireless modem was a popular choice.

However, due to power and range limit, wireless modem has its

shortages in application.

Global system for mobile (GSM) communication and general packed radio service (GPRS) [1], [2] are developed in cellular configuration for mobile communication after the 1990s.

They are developed in digital technology with data link capability. Within the metropolitan areas, GSM service has been

greatly...
