Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a data provision apparatus that combines position data and additional data for joint transmission to a higher-ranking unit. It includes a signal preparation unit that receives and combines the position data and additional data, and a signal processing unit that receives the position data from a position detection apparatus and the additional data from an additional data acquisition apparatus.
- The data provision apparatus combines position data and additional data for joint transmission.
- It includes a signal preparation unit and a signal processing unit.
- The signal preparation unit receives and combines the position data and additional data.
- The signal processing unit receives the position data from a position detection apparatus and the additional data from an additional data acquisition apparatus.
- The additional data is brought into a defined relationship, preferably a temporal relationship, with the position data.
- At least the additional data is outputted to the signal preparation unit.
Potential applications of this technology:
- GPS tracking systems that provide real-time position data along with additional data such as speed or altitude.
- Fleet management systems that combine vehicle location data with additional information like fuel consumption or engine diagnostics.
- Sports tracking devices that integrate GPS data with performance metrics like heart rate or distance covered.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient transmission of both position data and additional data to a higher-ranking unit.
- Ensuring a defined relationship, such as temporal synchronization, between the position data and additional data.
- Simplifying the process of combining and transmitting multiple types of data.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved accuracy and reliability of data provided to higher-ranking units.
- Enhanced functionality and insights by combining position data with additional data.
- Streamlined data transmission process, reducing the need for separate systems or devices.
Original Abstract Submitted
a data provision apparatus for providing position data and additional data to a higher-ranking unit comprises a signal preparation unit that is configured to receive position data and to receive additional data, to combine the position data and the additional data with one another for a joint data transmission and to subsequently output them in a combined form. in this respect, the data provision apparatus further comprises a signal processing unit that is configured to receive position data from a position detection apparatus and to receive additional data from an additional data acquisition apparatus, to bring the additional data into a defined relationship, preferably a temporal relationship, with the position data and to subsequently output at least the additional data to the signal preparation unit.
