A Fleet Monitoring System for Advanced Tracking of Commercial Vehicles

Abstract

Abstract-Many commercial off-the-shelf fleet telematics systems can provide basic tracking & tracing functionalities for vehicle fleets. These systems, however, require that dispatchers manually identify any discrepancies between the actual data available in the fleet telematics system and the planned data in the logistics system. Furthermore, actual data such as arrival and departure times at customer locations must be transferred manually between the fleet telematics system and the logistics system. In this paper we present a Fleet Monitoring System which can be used for advanced tracking of commercial vehicles. The Fleet Monitoring System can analyse messages sent from the vehicles in order to identify discrepancies between actual and planned data. Furthermore, it can be used to revise the planned data and to update the database of the logistics system, e.g. to store exact arrival and departure times at customer locations. As unexpected incidents and ambiguities are automatically detected, dispatchers do not need to manually analyse all messages sent by the vehicles and can quickly react on possible disturbances in the transportation processes.

Design the Middleware of Intelligent Monitoring System for Vehicles

“…The status information of vehicles is collected by a CPU connecting a CAN driver IC interface with a CAN interface of an OBD connector based on SPI. It is shown in Figure 1 [4,5].…”

“…According to advances of the terminal devices of a vehicle, various algorithms are adapted in the Safe Management System of vehicles, which applies an interactive communication function between a centralized monitoring center and the terminal devices of vehicles. Also, it is equipped with a function of transmission in real time [5,6].…”

“…It can be applied to develop applications (fleet management, call-taxi services, and management services for delivery vehicles) based on various platforms (PC, web, and smart devices) [5].…”
