Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for coupling data from an external data device to a position determination device. An Auxiliary Data Transmission Unit (ADTU) that includes a radio transmitter couples to the external data device. The ADTU receives serial data from the external data device and encodes the received serial data into a format suitable for receipt by the position determination device. The encoded data is then modulated to produce a radio signal that is transmitted to the position determination device in a scheme that permits multiple devices to communicate with the position determination device without interference.
