Abstract

Trucks are the main transportation in fuel distribution from the dispatch center to the gas station. The lack of a security system of fuel shipments from the dispatch center to the gas station is an opportunity for theft by illegally moving fuel from trucks. Therefore, an application is needed to support the security system on the truck. In this study, we designed a fuel truck monitoring system by combining a global positioning system (GPS) module and a mini-computer. The purpose of this study is to implement an integrated which perform the function of tracking the position of the truck and to ensure the truck arrives at the gasoline station. The limit sensor on the tap will detect if the valve is open. This function is to ensure that the tap is only opened at locations with predetermined coordinates. Monitoring is done through online and real-time websites. The website will display a database of GPS where the coordinates of the fuel truck are located. If a theft is detected, the system will display a warning with the coordinates of its location. From the test results obtained tracking accuracy of 100%. The average difference in the coordinates of GPS tagging with GPS tracking of 5.48 m. The averaged of one-way delay and response time of the proposed system are 4.95 s and 160 ms respectively, it has good criteria according to the ITU-T G10.10 standard for real-time application. This designed system is expected to be implemented on existing fuel trucks for security reasons.
