  • Abstract
    A lateral reference/sensor configuration is described which appears to have overcome the problems caused by steel reinforcing in concrete. Previously used reference/sensor systems performed as predicted on nonreinforced road surfaces but exhibited gain and lateral offset variations as a function of distance along a steel-reinforced highway. An automatic lateral guidance system using the new configuration has been successfully tested on continuously reinforced concrete at speeds up to 80 mi/h.
