Abstract

See full text

A method for calibrating a WIM (Weigh in Motion) sensor built into a road during travel of a calibrating vehicle measures the dynamic wheel force on the road and on the WIM sensor directly at the measuring wheel, depending on time or location. These wheel force data are transmitted to an evaluating unit. As the calibrating vehicle passes over, WIM signal data are simultaneously measured at the WIM sensor and transmitted to the evaluating unit. The wheel force data are synchronized with the WIM signal data in the evaluating unit. A calibration function is determined by comparing the dynamic wheel force data with the WIM signal data.
