Application Example
Figure 3
Track guiding a vehicle with one antenna
The figure shows a vehicle with an antenna frame for track guidance.
With the aid of the transponder (T 105) the deviation from the predeter-
mined track is determined (5 mm). With this information, an external
computer is able to determine the new direction required to return to the
predetermined track as soon as possible (the external computer is not
part of the system, we recommend the Götting Navigation Controller HG
G-73650). Rotary encoders enable changing the direction of travel
whenever necessary. Thus it is possible to switch tracks at predeter-
mined points (T107). Again, the vehicle corrects its position inde-
pendently upon reaching the next transponder.
