Paper Abstract
The radio telemetry is a well-known technique used within zoological research to exploit the behaviour of animal
species. A usage of GPS for a frequent and precise position recording gives interesting possibility for a further
enhancement of this method. We present our proposal of an architecture and design concepts of telemetry
transmitter with GPS module, called GTAG, that is suited for study of the Egyptian fruit bat (Rousettus
aegyptiacus). The model group we study set particular constrains, especially the weight limit (9 g) and prevention
of any power resources recharging technique. We discuss the aspect of physical realization and the energyconsumption
issues. We have developed a reference implementation that has been already deployed during
telemetry sessions and we evaluate the experience and compare the estimated performance of our device to a
real data.
