Gatekeeper
- Mobile Data Gateway (MDG)
Communications
software for the management and control of radio
data and for AVL and computer aided despatch
systems.
Gatekeeper is
a mobile data gateway (MDG) that provides
the software interface between a client application
or back end business process (Job Processing
or Computer Aided Dispatch/CAD software) and
the wireless data network. It may be installed
anywhere on a TCP/IP network or on the same
PC as the client software.
Gatekeeper currently interfaces to conventional
and trunked mobile radio networks(MPT1327/MAP27,
LTR Fleetsync), cellular data networks (CDMA,
GPRS), and may be interfaced to other mobile
data networks (ReFlex, satellite, P25, iDen)
on request.
It manages queuing, terminal addressing, message
storage, radios out of range etc. and the data
transfer to and from client applications such
as CAD, JMS and AVL. This is all processed seamlessly
with feedback to the dispatching systems only
when necessary. Gatekeeper is critical for achieving
an effective, efficient and robust real time
data transmission process.
Standard communications modules are available
for inter-application communications such as
com objects or flat file, or special interfaces
can be provided if required.
