The following code is for gps gsm module.The compiled hex code is pushed to microprocessor.
While compiling the below code we get unknown variable error for following variables UCZS0, UCZS1
Please guide us for same.

Where are these variables defined? in one of the #includes ????

unsigned int usart_getch()
{

	while (!(UCSRA & (1 << RXC)));

	return(UDR);
}

we get unknown variable error for following variables UCZS0, UCZS1

is there still an error if you add statements

#define UCZS0 0
#define UCZS1 1

below include statements? if yes, you should search all header files for a definition of those constants and include the header file if you found one.

while (!(UCSRA & (1 << RXC)));

how do you want to break from this loop if the condition is true? neither UCSRA nor RXC will change in that loop.

if the UCSRA and/or RXC are shared variables which might be modified in a second thread, you might need the volatile keyword for the definition in order that the compiler adds statements to recognize such changes. anyway, the loop is bad programming and may push one core of your cpu's to 100 %.

you have same kind of loop a multiple time.
