A simple region-specific broadcasting system for broadcasting information
pertinent to motor vehicles in sequential regions of a roadway or highway
directly to such vehicles when the vehicles are passing through such
sequential regions. Existing cellular facilities and resources may be
advantageously used in the implementation of the system. A system for
broadcasting short range RF real-time information to motor vehicles
traveling along a roadway implemented through a sequence of transceiving
short range broadcast stations along said highway, the stations spaced so
that the broadcast ranges of said stations tangentially overlap each
other. Each of the sequence of motor vehicles moving along this roadway
should include a transceiver for the short range RF signals. There is in
each of the motor vehicles with said transceivers, an implementation for
transmitting data that is specific to the transmitting motor vehicle,
together with means in the broadcast stations for broadcasting the data
specific to the transmitting motor vehicle to all of said motor vehicle
transceivers.
