An Approach of an Automated Guided Vehicle Control System with Road Way Inherent Transponders

A combination of identification technologies and automated guided vehicle systems offers significant advantages in terms of storage, modification and adaptation of travel and navigation data for larger or flexible transportation systems. The storage of information may deposit on the track. The possibility to abandon virtual maps reduces data traffic and necessary transport data for transport operation. Overall the technical effort for vehicle navigation is reduced. The presented approach allows the operation of vehicles as decentralized modules with manageable complexity.
