1 Wir eless vehicle detector
1.1 Introduction
The Wintrans WVD024 Wireless Vehicle Detection System uses wireless
vehicle detectors to detect the presence and movement of vehicles. The detectors
Installed on the surface or in small holes cored in the roadway transmit detections data
in real-time via low-power radio technology to a nearby access point. Vehicle
detections are further relayed to a traffic signal controller, remote traffic management
center, or other system.
The WVD024-S wireless vehicle detector combine a magnetometer and a
low-power radio in a small, hardened plastic case suitable for installation directly in
the pavement. In typical traffic management application, a detector is placed in the
middle of a traffic lane to detect the presence and passage of vehicles. Vehicle speeds
and length are measured by two detectors installed in the same lane with the exact
distance between them configured in software. The recommended distance between
detectors depends on the range of expected speeds to be measured: for typical freeway
applications, a separation of 20 to 24 feet is recommended; for typical arterial
applications, a separation of 10 to 12 feet is preferred. The magneto-resistive sensing
devices in each wireless detector measure the x-, y-, and z-axis components of the
Earth’s magnetic field at a 128Hz sampling rate. As vehicles come within range,
changes in the x, y, or z axes of the measured magnetic field become apparent. When
no vehicles are present, detectors continually measure the background magnetic field
to estimate a reference. Each detector automatically self-calibrates to the local
environment, and to any long-term variations of the local magnetic field, by allowing
this reference value to change over time.
It provides information about the arrival and departure of front-end vehicles for
the access point (AP) or repeater (RP) of the Wintrans Wireless Vehicle Detection
System. It receives the commands such as the parameter modification, the system
upgrade from the AP or the RP.

The WVD024-RP Repeater. In cases where one or more installed wireless
vehicle detectors are out of range of the nearest access point, one or more repeaters
can be used to provide a two-way relay between the out-of-range detectors and the
access point. As many as two repeaters operating in tandem can be installed between a
detector and the access point. To simplify its deployment, a repeater is
battery-powered and thus requires no wires or cabling. A repeater extends the range
and coverage of an installation’s access point. Mounted by the roadside on a pole or
other structure, the repeater must be positioned so that both the detectors to be
supported by the repeater and the communicating repeater or access point are within
view ant within range.

3.1 Introduction
The Wintrans WVD024 Wireless Vehicle Detection System uses wireless
vehicle detectors to detect the presence and movement of vehicles. The detectors
Installed on the surface or in small holes cored in the roadway transmit detections data
in real-time via low-power radio technology to a nearby access point. Vehicle
detections are further relayed to a traffic signal controller, remote traffic management
center, or other system.
The Access Point is an intelligent device operating under the Linux operating
system that maintains two-way wireless links to a vehicle detection system’s detectors
and repeaters, establishes overall time synchronization, transmits configuration
commands and message acknowledgements, and receives and processes data from the
detectors. The access point then uses either wired or wireless connections (or both) to
replay the detection data to a roadside traffic controller or remote server, traffic
management system, or other vehicle detection applications.
An access point uses a single cable to support 10Base-T Ethernet
communications as well as DC power input and, in some versions, serial
communications to the contact closure card that furnishes the interface to standard
traffic controllers.
