Re: car tracking system
hello sibtain
that is a very good idea most of the car tracking systems are satellite based
for your problem i think you can use a microcontroller based system that can control the frequency and power of the transmitter located in the car
by telling the transmitter to change its power or frequency you can get a lot of help . of course you will have to use some kind of directional antennas that will rotate 360 degree checking where the maximum reception is ,if its same everywhee it can ask the transmitter to reduce amplitude or jump to a higher frequency once the direction is found things an get easier
you can also use 2 or 3 base stations that will look for the direction ,which once found can become the three corners of a triangle ,angles are known ,the distance between base stations is known you can also calculate the distance i think !
bye
hope this helps
