Transportation System Performance Measurement Using Loop Signature Amplifiers (102-FH2-009) Small Business Innovation Research Phase II
Project Information
Project ID:
FHWA-PROJ-13-0096
Project Abstract:
Phase II:
- Developed basic simulation model based on open published algorithms and papers.
- Developed C++ project to share data between operating programs.
- Developed a server client architecture for programs. A Phase II has been awarded.
- Developed a database architecture for input output streams.
- Developed architecture for handling multiple turning and auxiliary lanes.
- Added linkage to coordinate cumulative and time interval measures of effectiveness with graphical files.
Goals:
Evaluate whether it is possible to utilize enhanced loop sensor amplifiers to measure and track vehicle signatures to create anonymous travel time and origin-destination information.

Project Outputs:
Phase I demonstrated that it was possible to utilize special loop amplifiers to measure the pulse intensity in high resolution time intervals. Phase I demonstrated that different classes of vehicles gave different vehicle signatures. Phase II will investigate the uniqueness of the signatures and whether they can be used for vehicle identification and reidentification.
