The rental user study was a major component of this study. The drivers were assigned to the following vehicle configurations: services (S) - the vehicles were equipped with a traveler information system; navigation (N) - in addition to the capabilities provided by the S configuration the vehicles were equipped with a navigation, and route guidance system, and navigation plus (N+) - the vehicles were provided with up-to-date traffic information in addition to the capabilities included in the N configuration. Preliminary results on willingness to pay for the N and N+ drivers are presented. The N and N+ drivers did not differ statistically in their willingness to pay for the vehicle driven in Orlando, navigation feature, route guidance feature, services and attractions, and up-to-date traffic information. The results of multivariate analyses of questionnaire items are given. The analyses were conducted to identify factors underlying responses to selected questionnaire items.","PeriodicalId":185945,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of VNIS '93 - Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference","volume":"240 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115242563","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}

For the estimation of the Doppler frequency an FFT-based method extended by sensor-model-based algorithms for postprocessing is used.

The principle of operation of the retrodirective transponder (RDT) is based on the Van Atta array which has the ability to take an incident RF wave and re-radiate it back in the direction from which it cam, i.e., retrodirectively. While passing through the RDT's integral monolithic GaAs modulators, the RF wave can be modulated by information that is thereby automatically transmitted back to the interrogator. The operation of the modulatable Van Atta array is illustrated.","PeriodicalId":185945,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of VNIS '93 - Vehicle Navigation and Information Systems Conference","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133656807","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}
