Abstract
Micro-mechanical sensors, originally introduced in the car as key components for passive safety systems, are now used also in a number of emerging applications like security, positioning, and telematics. Bundled together with the TeseoII™ chipset, the first-in-the-market positioning receiver able to simultaneously handle satellite signals from GPS/Galileo/Glonass/QZSS constellations, STMicroelectronics’ accelerometers and gyroscopes can address and help to solve those issues arising from satellite obscuration and/or degraded reception in various environmental conditions. To combat the complexity of today’s driving on multi-level roads and the increasing demand of anti-spoofing and anti-jamming algorithms in eToll applications, other MEMS sensors like pressure and compass may find their way into these emerging applications. This paper addresses the latest sensing solutions offered by ST in this field, with an outlook to future evolutions.
