Real time tracking in truck fleet management

This thesis researches Scania's challenge to display the position oftrucks, with high accuracy and good user experience while with minimalposition transfers from the truck. This thesis presents an eventtriggered position update (ETPU) algorithm for sending positions fromthe truck along with real time estimation on the client. The key pointwith this system is that the truck computes the same estimation toevaluate its accuracy and sends a new position if the estimate isinsufficient. This achieves a system in which position updates areonly done when needed to achieve a selected accuracy. Simulations weredone and metrics for: accuracy, data consumption and user experiencewere applied for evaluation. Results are presented to inform thereaders of the ETPU's potential.
