A Highly Selective Vehicle Classification Utilizing Dual-Loop Inductive Detector

In general, currently employed vehicle classification algorithms based on the magnetic signature can distinguish among only a few vehicle classes. The work presents a new approach to this problem. A set of characteristic parameters measurable from the magnetic signature and limits of their uncertain...
