Abstract :
In this paper, we study the vehicle navigation system against snow in winter season. In our residential area (Hokkaido, Northern part of Japan), we have snowfall and occasionally, even autobus loses the way and downfalls from the road by poor visibility and whiteout. In order to construct the strong navigation system against poor visibility and whiteout, we study communication system between vehicle and road using RF-ID system. We made experiment during winter season, we will show prototype model of vehicle navigation system and our results.
