The present invention relates to a mobile station of Global Position System (GPS) for a rubber-tiered gantry crane (RTG), and it mainly comprises one or two GPS receiver(s), a radio receiver, two crane encoders, a control processor, and a programmable logic controller (PLC). The mobile station adopts Real Time Kinematics (RTK) technology of the GPS, and gets a high precision coordinates of three dimensions, then sends it to the control processor and gets the current crane position of the RTG and the offset between crane wheel and the central line of crane runway. At the same time, the control processor receives and calculates the signals sent by the crane wheel encoders, and checks up and reckons the crane position and the crane wheel offset, converts it to a 4-20 mA current signal by a digital-analog converter (D/A) or transfers it to the PLC directly by a serial port, and complete the crane auto-steering function; on the other hand, the control processor calculates the crane position and transfers it to the PLC via the serial port, completes the auto-register of the container management. The present invention can make the RTG keep agility with in moving from one yard to another, and can also make it work stable and reliably like a rail gantry crane and report the accurate container positions. Thus, the container management is made to be highly automotive.
