How to interface GSM/GPRS modem to a MCU?

mcu interface gprs

I have gsm/gprs modem and 89c52 microcontroller.
I have studied all set of AT n extended AT commands used for sending n receiving sms using hyperterminal at PC and was successful. Now i need to interface my gsm modem to 8052.I dont know how to start.

gprs with mcu

use 8051 micros or other types like AVR with MAX232 RS232 interface IC,to connect to GSM and GPS modules(you need 1 RS232 port for GSM and another one for GPS).

Use AT commands according to module datasheet(GSM), for GPS use NMEA0183 protocol.

you should send and receive data by micro using c code and the port driver written for its serial port.

gprs interface

Hi,
Nowadays all microcontrollers come with internal serial port or USART. The GSM modem also communicates using serial port.

So the connection would be
8052(inbuilt USART) ----->GSM modem

Now, program the microcontroller to send all AT commands, through the serial port.
Remember, the GSM modem always echoes the data that it has received. So when you transmit a byte you should also recieve the same. For example If microcontroller transmits 'A' to GSM modem, immediately after that Gsm modem will transmit a 'A' back to microcontroller which it has to recieve it.

Your program should imitate all the commands that you have practised in Hyperterminal.

Can i simulate this using ISIS Proteus with the help of VIRTUAL TERMINAL.
