SUMMARY : This technical report are written about the Automated Crash Notification (ACN) System.
                         The system is composed of two major subsystems which is mobile unit and base station.
                         Mobile unit for installed in the occupant compartment of the vehicle, and the Base Station
                         which is responsible for receiving distress calls from the Mobile Units and reporting their
                         location to emergency response dispatch personnel. This section describes the requirements
                         of  each of these subsystems. The mobile unit is responsible for detecting a crash and
                         transmit a message to the base station which describes the crash location and the severity.
                         The base station unit is responsible for receive the signal from the mobile unit which is detect
                         the location of the accident occur. This system are using GPS system to transmit the
                         location.
