Abstract:
A collar for a wild animal and an apparatus for monitoring/managing the activity of a wild animal are disclosed. The present invention discloses a collar for a wild animal that is capable of collecting the location, habitat, activity environment and activity state information of a wild animal and transmitting the collected information to a remote server. The present invention discloses an apparatus for monitoring/managing the activity of a wild animal that is capable of remotely receiving the location, habitat, activity environment and activity state information of a wild animal measured by a collar for a wild animal, and analyzing and managing the habitat environment and activity state of the wild animal. The collar for a wild animal is capable of being continuously operated for a long period performing operation using energy that can be acquired from an area around a wild animal and at low power.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for determining the location of a mobile object are disclosed. The apparatus includes a GPS module unit, a mobile communication module unit, a USN module unit, and a control module unit. The GPS module unit receives a GPS signal including the coordinate information of the current location of a mobile object. The mobile communication module unit is operated when the GPS module unit has received the GPS signal, and transmits the coordinate information of the current location of the mobile object and the ID of the mobile object to a location estimation apparatus. The USN module unit is operated when the GPS module unit fails to receive the GPS signal, and broadcasts a beacon signal carrying the ID of the mobile object. The control module unit operates any one of the mobile communication module unit and the USN module unit.
