Advanced Positioning Technology Approach for a Co-operative Vehicle Infrastructure Systems (CVIS)

Kurzfassung

This paper describes the system approach for a future positioning system to be developed for the European CVIS project (www.cvisproject.org) that deals with an increased transport safety and efficiency using advanced positioning, mapping and communication technologies. Positioning and mapping functions will be provided by the sub-project POMA, where new methods for the combination of several positioning components will be developed. The whole positioning system setup of CVIS will then be deployed at DLR in Berlin. This setup will not only cover onboard components but also infrastructure based sensors and sensor networks together with enhanced positioning algorithms. This new approach shall enable high accuracy and reliability for the following field trials spread over Europe.
