A tractor-trailer ID system comprising a tractor device in a tractor, the tractor device including a tractor transceiver, a tractor display, and a tractor controller. The system also including a trailer device in the trailer, the trailer device including a trailer transceiver, and a trailer controller. The tractor-trailer ID system is configured to display, via the tractor display, load pickup instructions to a driver of the tractor, determine that the trailer has been connected to the tractor, and after determining that the trailer is connected to the tractor, transmit, from the trailer transceiver to the tractor transceiver, a trailer ID, confirm, via the tractor controller, the trailer ID.

Tractor-trailer ID methods and system

An asset monitoring system includes a server, and a monitoring system mounted in a container. The monitoring system includes a camera, a transceiver, and a controller configured to control the camera to capture images of the inside of a container, and control the transceiver transmit the images to a server. The server is configured to process the images to determine loading data including at least one of an unused volume or an unused floor space inside the container, and transmit the loading data to a customer computer.

Asset tracking and monitoring in transportation

A system and method for position determination using low earth orbit satellites. A mobile terminal affixed to an asset initiates a collection of global positioning system satellite measurements (e.g., code phase) based on a hardware trigger generated by a low earth orbit satellite modem. Timing information reflective of the time of the hardware trigger pulse is transmitted to an operations center along with the global positioning system satellite measurements to enable the operations center to determine a position of the mobile terminal.

System and method for position determination using low earth orbit satellites

A system and method for improving efficiency of satellite communications is described. In one embodiment, multiple return links are associated with a single forward link to reduce communications costs.

Multiple return link

A system and method for improving efficiency of satellite communications is described. In one embodiment, efficient satellite communications is enabled through event-driven reporting by a mobile terminal.
