Automatic vehicle identification system capable of vehicle lane discrimination

摘要

A system of vehicle identification with a first interrogator that uses a Lower SideBand (LSB) receiver to receive a modulated signal from a vehicle transponder and a second interrogator that uses an Upper SideBand (USB) receiver to receive another modulated signal. The two interrogators are adjacent to each other at a toll plaza, and operate at different carrier frequencies to force a signal frequency bandgap between communication signals in adjacent vehicle lanes.
