CLASSES OF APPLICATIONS • PUBLIC SAFETY • TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT • FREIGHT/CARGO TRANSPORT • TRANSIT • TRAVELER INFORMATION/SUPPORT
PUBLIC SAFETY APPLICATIONS GOAL IS TO REDUCE TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS, RESULTING IN: FEWER INJURIES AND FATALITIES LOWER DIRECT AND INDIRECT FINANCIAL COSTS REDUCED TRAFFIC CONGESTION
PUBLIC SAFETY APPLICATION EXAMPLES • FORWARD OBSTACLE DETECTION AND AVOIDANCE • LANE DEPARTURE WARNING • TURN ACCIDENT WARNINGS • INTERSECTION COLLISION WARNING • AUTOMATED, VARIABLE MESSAGE SIGNS
COLLISION WARNING SYSTEMS ROADSIDE INFRASTRUCTURE BASED WARNING SYSTEMS HAVE THREE PARTS: ROAD SENSORS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM ON-BOARD DRIVER INTERFACE
COLLISION WARNING SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO WARNINGS OF ROAD HAZARDS, DETECTION OF POTENTIAL COLLISIONS WITH CROSSING OR ON-COMING TRAFFIC MAY ALSO BE IMPLEMENTED.
COLLISION WARNING SYSTEMS POTENTIAL COLLISIONS MAY ALSO BE WITH PEDESTRIANS.
RADAR FORWARD WARNING SYSTEMS • EATON VORAD COLLISION DETECTION SYSTEM CURRENTLY USED ON MANY TRUCKS IN NORTH AMERICA • ALMOST 2 BILLION MILES OF OPERATIONAL EXPERIENCE ANALYZED FROM 1900 TRUCKS • TYPICAL FLEET ACCIDENT REDUCTIONS OF 80% FORWARD-LOOKING RADAR USED TO DETECT DISTANCE TO LEADING VEHICLE. MY BE JUST A WARNING TO THE DRIVER OR AUTOMATICALLY REDUCE SPEED TO MAINTAIN SAFE DISTANCE. TRUCKS ALSO USE SIDE SYSTEMS TO WARN OF VEHICLES AT THEIR SIDES.
LOW BRIDGE WARNING and ROLL OVER WARNING Tractor-trailer being measured from the gantry and receiving link identification from OBE on Channel 5 RSE located on a Tower Transmitting Bridge Clearance or Warning on Channel 5 RSE located in the the warning sign using Channel 4 gantry Not to Scale The tractor trailer receives curve parameters from the RSE in the rollover warning sign. The on-board computer calculates the proper speed for this vehicle’s loading and warns the driver if a rollover is indicated. Tractor-trailer with OBE receiving rollover parameters from the warning sign at the curve on Channel 4
WORK ZONE WARNING Work Zone Warning Capture Zone DSRC Beacon on maintenance vehicle Flashing Arrow Grass Divider Work Zone 20 ft Micro Zone Work Zone Warning Com. Zone Traffic Cones up to 300 m range Not to Scale
STOPPED VEHICLE WARNING Grass Divider Stopped Vehicle Warning Capture Zone Rear facing DSRC transmitter on every car Stopped Vehicle Warning Com. Zone up to 300 m range Not to Scale
