SkySweep VHF/UHF IP Data Radios SkySweep AVL Application The SkySweep IP radio system (SkyIPR) is a high speed (up to 915 kbit/s) IP over VHF/UHF radio solution. The products are based on the state-of-the-art new generation radio technology which provides TDD time division duplex transmission and OFDM modulation. The SkyIPR enables fluent use of IP based applications over VHF/UHF radio networks. The SkySweep IP radio high speed data solution revolutionises the way in which today`s mission critical networks can transmit data. What`s more, it answers the needs of both end users and network operators as well. With SkySweep IP radios professional users will be able to access services and features previously available only via commercial, non mission critical networks. With the emergence of mission critical data, new operational models can be developed and user organisations can achieve new levels of effectiveness. Network operators will appreciate the boost that SkyIPR solutions will bring to their network`s data capabilities. These solutions can take advantage of high data speeds, guaranteed data delivery times, high availability, utmost reliability and uncompromising security. Commercial off the shelf solutions simply can`t match them. In the SkyIPR solutions, leading edge, high speed data technology is complemented by advanced third party applications that take advantage of faster, mission critical data. SkySweep`s SkyIPR can bring to life what previously has been out of reach, enabling completely new data services, such as remote video recognition, and fast checking of identities using biometric recognition. For example, exhisting vehicle location systems already transmit vehicle locations to the central AVL system via the radio network, so that central command and control > personel can have the advantage of knowing where each vehicle is at any given moment. A SkySweep IP radio (SkyIPR) solution can make it possible to share location information effectively, in real time with the field forces. This can significantly improve the overall situational awareness. SkySweep IP radio (SkyIPR) for complete mobility With secure connectivity and mobility of SkySweep solutions, users can stay online and updated at all times. Mission critical data may be related to situational awareness, to the event at hand or to a reading from a sensing system. Whatever the case, users can receive data according to their specific situation and even according to their specific radio network and devices. The higher bandwidth goes far beyond delivering more of the same information. It provides field operatives with entirely new types of information, such as surveilance camera feed or patient monitoring data. Another significant benefit is the wide area coverage, in stark contrast to coverage within urban areas that some technologies provide. SkySweep IP radio system (SkyIPR) solutions can be available wherever voice coverage is already in use, typically in existing PMR networks. Voice communication cannot be bettered, when a critical situation calls for split-second action, but most field work is not like that. Instead of a dispatcher having to issue all the instructions and information associated with a routine task verbally, SkyIPR uses IP over VHF/UHF data and messaging to assign tasks, provide access to databases, to all the information needed by field operatives and enable them to submit reports without having to return to the headquarters. This two way SkySweep IP radio system (SkyIPR) communication process can be tailored to fit each organisation`s operational needs and legal requirements. The SkyIPR VHF/UHF IP data radio is based on Windows embedded. The SkySweep IP Data Radio tracking solution consists of an USB GPS-receiver & the SkySweep tracking application. It provides a very cost efficient solution for VHF/UHF radio net GPS based AVL tracking. The solution is based on the SkySweep Tracking Server which contains the hardware and software. The clients send position information based on time or position changes. It is also possible to send status information (alarms, etc) and short text messages. The unit status and location are shown on the map. The SkySweep IP Data Radio (SkyIPR) tracking solution for AVL networks offers enormous capabillities. The system can track just one vehicle or up to hundreds of vehicles. The SkyIPR station can be used with the SkySweep tracking application or existing AVL IP applications and systems. The system fits for small tracking networks with less participants as also for networks, which consists of many stations. Track taxi cars, busses, agriculture vehicles, construction vehicles, a fleet of ships, etc. The example system below comprises s, IP s, SkySweep Tracking Server, and IP based infrastructure. The SkySweep Tracking Client is running on any pc system hardware (PDA, tablet, laptop) with Windows operating system(tm). 2

SkySweep Tracking Client The SkySweep Tracking Client is running on SkySweep IP Data Radio (SkyIPR) stations using USB GPS receivers. The client sends position and status messages to the SkySweep Tracking Server. The vehicle position is sent automatically based on time or position changes. SkySweep Tracking client, SkySweep tracking server application & USB GPS receiver are included in the device package. Also customer`s own tracking client or server solutions can be used. SkySweep Tracking Server The SkySweep Tracking Server provides a standardized and state-of-the-art web browser based user interface. It supports several map types, unit tracking, several types of alarms, etc. Below is a screen shot of the user interface showing unit positions and statuses. The customer can of course use also his own map types. Tracking Server architecture Because of the and web browser based user interface the SkySweep Tracking Server can also have several work stations connected with the same user interface. IP IP SkySweep Tracking Server The SkySweep Tracking and data interface Server for 24/7 operation is necessary within the SkySweep Tracking system. Benefit: It allows several work stations to be connected with the same user interface but showing only the units belonging to the own system. Example: if seven of 10 vehicles tracked belong to your fleet, you will see only these seven cars in your view. The remaining cars appear on other related workstations which could be located also in another company. Tracking status messages The SkySweep Tracking Server user interface shows the status message sent by the mobile station in the user interface. 3

Tracking User Interface The server supports several map types, map zooming, user defined boundaries, vehicle status messages, alarms, speed, fuel level, etc details. Also tracking and geographical area based alarms are supported. An ideal system for dispatcher use. With Tracking Service, you are able to track your vehicles accurately live via GPS technology with use of your own maps or with your favorite Google maps to give you ease of tracking your vehicle. Tracking also gives a security feature such as use of Safety zone that will alert you when your vehicle leaves your pre assigned areas. A and a lot more features can easily be implemented. The SkySweep Tracking Server user interface is shown below. Tracking Alarms The SkySweep Tracking Server user interface shows the alarm sent by the mobile station in the user interface. 4
