GPS Data (BINEX) Streaming via Iridium Short Burst Data (SBD) Mode Preliminary Report

3/20/2007 Rev.2

Performed under UNAVCO sub-contract by: Alberto Behar, PhD

Purpose:

This is a report for a system that is able to stream GPS position data (BINEX open format) from a Trimble NetRS (easily adaptable to other units) to a microcontroller + Iridium modem box that can then send the data through the Iridium Network to the UNAVCO operations base where it is repackaged to look like the original stream (Figure 1).
