This paper will focus on investigations carried out by the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario on Emergency Location Systems with the prime objective to identify a functional and cost-effective solution for Metropolitan Toronto's taxi operations and other municipal fleets and to investigate as well, opportunities to enhance vehicle dispatching and real-time traffic data collection, using the location system's communications infrastructure. The approach taken was to investigate existing and upcoming commercial systems, evaluate them and recommend the appropriate course of action. The outcome of the study is a list of systems recommended for further investigations and small-scale demonstrations.","PeriodicalId":126255,"journal":{"name":"Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference, 1991","volume":"136 8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131220984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper describes the mathematics of a four step procedure for developing such a time varying OD matrix from vehicle probe data and discusses the important statistical limitations of the final OD estimates. It is shown that, unless there is a very high level of market penetration in the network, the resulting OD estimate will contain such a high level of statistical uncertainty as to render it of limited practical value. consequently, it is anticipated that the resulting OD estimate will even in the long term not be unsuitable to be utilized on its own, and that instead this estimate will always need to be further processed as a seed solution matrix for a subsequent dynamic synthetic OD generation analysis.","PeriodicalId":126255,"journal":{"name":"Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference, 1991","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115433330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through use of distance sensor, optical-fiber gyroscope, Map-Matching technique, and GPS receiver to reduce accumulated errors, we are improving location accuracy. The model we demonstrated in our March 1991 field test showed good results on three courses of the 10 recommended by the Public Works Research Institute - (10km in an urban area, and 20 and 50km in the suburbs). Additionally, our model displayed two superior strengths: neither the initial location or direction of a vehicle needs to be set; and conventional map data (not 100% accurate) may be utilized. This paper describes the results of our experimental demonstration and how to combine a GPS receiver and inertial sensor.","PeriodicalId":126255,"journal":{"name":"Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference, 1991","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116039297","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Using variable reluctance sensors for differential odometer applications","authors":"M. Pikula, G. Calves","doi":"10.4271/912788","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4271/912788","url":null,"abstract":"Applying a variable reluctance sensor to a differential odometer application requires special considerations. Due to widespread use in anti-lock brake systems and the need for cost effective designs, variable reluctance sensors have advantages over more expensive active sensors. Unfortunately, both mechanical and electrical parameters can adversely affect the output of a variable reluctance sensor. The output signal varies with the rate of change of the flux, mechanical spacing and magnetic source variation. At low vehicle speeds the output signal, which is a function of the rate of change of the flux, tends to approach zero and signal-to-noise ratios become significant. Since changes in vehicle direction typically occur at lower speeds, differential odometers require good low speed performance. In addition to speed, differential odometers rely on two sensors, therefore sensor variation must also be compensated for. Consequently, using variable reluctance sensors to perform differential odometer calculations requires signal processing, special circuitry and pulse train processing to extract an acceptable level of information. This paper introduces a signal conditioning circuit that operates over a wide frequency and amplitude range. The output of the circuit can be connected to the input of a microprocessor. Passive components can be adjusted to work with different applications.","PeriodicalId":126255,"journal":{"name":"Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference, 1991","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123351982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reed","doi":"10.4271/912802","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4271/912802","url":null,"abstract":"Rapidly increasing demand for transportation combined with limited ability for expansion of facilities has led to recent degradations in the quality of transportation systems. Intelligent Vehicle-Highway Systems (IVHS) represent a promising effort toward enabling more effective and efficient use of current capacity thus in essence expanding the roadway. As the concepts and technologies utilized by IVHS are new to much of the transportation community there is a need for an educational initiative in this area. In 1990 the University of Michigan (UM) responded to this need by creating the first, and to date the only, university program in IVHS education. The IVHS Education Program is receiving initial multi-year support from the U.S. Department of Transportation with matching support from the University of Michigan. Significant assistance is also being provided by sponsors from industry, the Michigan Department of Transportation, Michigan State University (MSU), and Wayne State University (WSU). The Program is structured as a cross-disciplinary cooperative effort to provide both traditional university and continuing education. Key new initiatives include; 1) a Certificate in Transportation Studies: IVHS which has been designed to complement the depth gained through a master's or Ph.D degree in an established discipline by providing breadth in practical knowledge relevant to IVHS, 2) an Engineering Summer Conference which is offered to expose practicing engineers and professionals to the latest developments in IVHS, and 3) an Executive Education Seminar which is held for corporate and government executives and planners interested in strategic issues in IVHS. The unconventional nature of the IVHS Education Program gave rise to a number of unique difficulties during development and implementation in a traditional university setting. It is hoped that the UM experience in overcoming these hindrances will prove beneficial to any institution seeking to provide similar education.","PeriodicalId":126255,"journal":{"name":"Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference, 1991","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122960115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All aspects of the system have proved to be extremely reliable and the provision of a high degree of redundancy has contributed to virtually 100% availability at all times. The system utilises a dedicated low frequency hyperbolic radio system for location and a unique data network for position reporting. Special software has been written to make full use of the position data received. The demand for the system is growing rapidly in the UK; there is now a wide range of users and several thousand vehicles have been equipped. Some principle applications are described and these show that the cost savings resulting from the use of the system have become an important and significant selling factor.","PeriodicalId":126255,"journal":{"name":"Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference, 1991","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124758418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis focuses on the ways in which a route guidance system with distributed route selection logic, such as the TravTek system in Orlando, can be made to avoid the inefficiencies associated with the paradox without a priori knowledge of the existence of the paradox and while allowing each vehicle's RGS computer to independently make routing decisions without the explicit knowledge of the concurrent routing decisions of other drivers. It is shown that this objective can be achieved by implementing a distributed form of a system optimum routing algorithm coupled with the use of a PROBIT type of error term to reduce some of the instabilities that are intrinsic in the travel time information feedback loop.","PeriodicalId":126255,"journal":{"name":"Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference, 1991","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126128303","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traffic scenes recorded on video tape were used in the laboratory to test the approach. Binary images were obtained by subtracting each incoming sampled frame from a reference frame and thresholding the result. Centroids were calculated for each of the objects found in the binary images and were used to track the path of each vehicle on successive frames for its duration along the roadway in the region of interest. To minimize the computation time required to match objects from a given frame to the corresponding objects in the next frame, the velocity of each vehicle and inertial constraints on speed and angular deviation were used to predict each object's location in the next frame. The object nearest the target value was chosen as the appropriate match. The trajectory of each vehicle was checked for conformity. The implementation of the approach has been able to identify non-conforming vehicle behavior and issue a message on the monitor describing the detected behavior.","PeriodicalId":126255,"journal":{"name":"Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference, 1991","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127569147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twenty adults varying in age and typing ability participated in the evaluation. Test results showed that subjects typed 25-26% faster on the QWERTY keyboards than on the alphabetical keyboard. The difference in typing speed between the two QWERTY keyboards was not significant. Additionally, differences in error rates among the three keyboards were not significantly different. Eleven out of 20 subjects preferred the standard QWERTY keyboard; 6 preferred the modified QWERTY keyboard; 3 preferred the alphabetical keyboard.
