GPS Data Module and Encoder

An application specific GPS receiver module and FSK encoder. The device outputs dynamic GPS serial data messages in NMEA format converted to FSK audio tone modulation. This device enables GPS data to be relayed via a wireless video link to the ground receiving systems via the audio channels simultaneously with the video.

The data o/p is also supplied in RS232 format for connecting to external instruments e.g. Flir camera for symbology information. The module has an external antenna feed.

Using standard input dc power (9 to 30 volts dc) it is ideally suited to digital video link systems using standard audio data channels for the GPS relay.
