WIRELESS VEHICLE DETECTOR AGGREGATOR AND INTERFACE TO CONTROLLER AND ASSOCIATED METHODS

摘要

Embodiments of systems and methods of the present invention include efficient, reliable aggregation and transfer of one or more sensor pods detect status to the base station and then the traffic controller. An embodiment of an access point maintains a sensor state anay, which is the current status of the sensor pods in eomniimicanon with the access point. The access point can maintain the sensor state anay in its memory and relay the sensor state array to the base station. An embodiment of a base station can use the sensor state anay infomiation to generate and update a vehicle detector array, which is the current status of all the sensor pods in the wireless vehicle defector network. An embodiment of the base station emulates one or more bus interface units and uses the vehicle detector array to relay detector information to the traffic controller periodically or when polled.
