Vehicle navigation in the intersection with data stored driving lane and UHF RF-ID system

Abstract

In our previous work, we engaged in vehicle navigations system with UHF RF-ID system against low visible condition. During the winter, northern part of Japan, driving lane is covered with snow and ice and we sometime meet heavy snowfall. Occasionally, some drivers go out from their driving lane in low visible condition caused by snow storm. Our navigation system is made to prevent such traffic accidents with low visible condition. There are several studies related on lane departure warning and vehicle positioning with GPS, DSRC, and other technique. These systems have virtues and weakness for our circumstance. In this paper, we will discuss vehicle navigation for turn action in the intersection with data stored driving lane and related issues.
