  • Abstract
    This paper describes temperature influence on the uncertainty of weighing results in Weigh in Motion systems (WIM). The analysis bases on the long-term investigation of the WIM site, as well as on simulation tests conducted on sensor and conditioning circuit models. The drawn conclusions suggest, that this uncertainty may be significantly reduced if a proper temperature correction algorithm is applied.
