Paid on delivery
I am looking for someone to help design a solution that would have a mounted directional antenna constantly point either to a pre-designated GPS location or to the strongest directional of a transmitting signal. The mount would have to be motorized as well. Ideally we use off the shelf components (easily ordered via sites like Amazon) and a simple computer system like an Arduino or Raspberry Pi. However I am flexible and I am looking for the best solution on a budget. Some other projects that might provide inspiration, but are not designed for this exact purpose are: [login to view URL]

hi I have hardware : - rpi 2 , 3 - uart ublox GPS module ("tested and working on raspberry pi ") - stepper motor (" tested and working on raspberry pi"); software skills : c ,c++ , nodejs note : I can detect gps data and signal strength . and can control stepper motor. I can make this system work but need from you the system analysis ( how much move stepper motor to check signals , etc...)

Hello, I am an Electronics engineer working for different product designing firm as freelance. I have 4 -5 years of experience on Embedded systems and robotics etc. I have also worked with arduino and Raspberry pi related to robotics and other applications. In this project you have two objectives One is to rotate the antenna towards a specific gps location . Another s to fix the antenna towards the maximum signal strength. This can be done in Arduino itself with the help of some peripherals like signal strength calculator, gps and motor system for rotating the antenna. I can definitely do this project ....Which type of antenna and signals are you using. the signal strength part will depend on this ...

Hello, nice to meet you. I am electronic engineer with expertise in embedded systems, I used GPS modules before. Check out my profile to see my other areas of expertise. I can do your project, my idea is to used the number of satellites that the GPS is using for get the location. If the number of satellites are lower that a predefined threshold then a "search" algorithm will move the GPS to different direction until it find a better signal. I am looking for my first project in freelancer.com so I will give you the lowest price. Feel free for ask me any question you have. Hope you choose me. Vinicio Gómez

This looks like a fun project. Do you have an antenna in mind? How about the GPS module? I've got good experience with robot localization and directional telemetry for UAV/Drones. This is probably something like what I have been wanting to do for myself for some time. I would love to discuss it further with you. I always provide industry standard documentation for all my work. I am sure you would be pleased.

I studied Geomatic engineering and Mechatronic engineering, so I have variety of skills which will make this solution reliable. Moreover I use Raspberry Pi daily, to produce solutions with similar background(Last week I calculated geolocation of the SIM card with information about signal strength)
