VERFAHREN ZUM KLASSIFIZIEREN VON GEWICHTINFORMATION IN EINEM FAHRZEUGGEWICHTKLASSIFIKATIONSSYSTEM

摘要

A vehicle weight classification system (20) includes a method of classifying weight information. A plurality of zones (52, 54, 56, 58, 60) are defined and are associated with each of the weight classifications (44, 46, 48, 50). In one example, the upper and lower limits of the zones overlap those of an adjacent zone. The upper and lower limits of the zones preferably also overlap the thresholds of the corresponding weight classifications. Whenever weight information exists within a zone, a value for that zone is increased. The zone having the highest value is determined to be the zone where the weight information should be classified. The weight information is then classified into the classification associated with the zone having the highest value.
