| Abstract | This report documents work performed by the University of California at Davis in collaboration with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in relationship to a Precursor System Analysis dealing with a study of automated construction, maintenance, and operational requirements for Automated Highway Systems (AHS). This study was conducted in the activity area "K" dealing with AHS roadway operational analysis. The report documents a design analysis for a robotic system for automated installation of discrete magnetic markers for AHS. The design includes a manpower assessment and a cost-benefit analysis. Summaries for supporting research are included in appendices, including: a literature review, a reference architecture and classification system for AHS, and a computer simulation and animation of the prototype discrete magnetic marker placement system described in this report. This report consists of resource materials. |
