Pager Performance for the Western Transportation Institute’s Augmented Speed Enforcement Project

The purpose of the augmented Speed Enforcement (aSE) project is to detect speeding vehicles in a work zone and provide alerts to drivers and warnings to work zone workers. When the system detects a vehicle approaching above a trigger speed, the system activates a pager system that warns the workers of the speeding vehicle. Basic range measurements were performed for the transmitter and a repeater; the range is about 600 feet. The transmitter to repeater range measures over 1700 feet. Transmitter and repeater power consumption were also measured. This report contains the full results of the pager system tests.
