The patent, which has number 10.438.482 and has been issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, describes a method for using received signals from a plurality of separate antennas in a multilane installation. By combining data can the specific lane of a particular vehicle be determined.
Determination of lanes is fundamental to electronic toll solutions and the now patented innovation provides a very cost effective and accurate solution. This is of particular importance in the difficult environment of multi-path reflections when using for instance UHF RFID for road tolling.
“The granting of our patent application further recognises the high quality of our innovation work. In addition, it gives us strength in the relationships with key market players for tolls as the solution has been developed in response to actual market needs and within a priority area for us”, said Jonas Svensson, CEO, Tagmaster.
