Abstract: In one embodiment an controller comprises logic, at least partially including hardware logic, configured to logic, at least partially including hardware logic, configured to receive location data from a location measurement apparatus, buffer the location data in a local memory, and release the location data from the local memory to a remote processor in response to one or more trigger conditions. Other embodiments may be described.

Abstract: Vehicles driving on a roadway interrogate passive tags in or on lanes of the roadway. Codes in the tags represent locations along the highway and which lane the vehicle is traveling in. Units in the vehicles communicate longitudinal and lane positions derived from the codes among each other or with infrastructure units for purposes such as traffic management, alerts concerning other vehicles, alerts concerning external conditions, or traffic control. The units may also communicate vehicle lengths or other parameters or characteristics. Vehicle units may communicate with sensors and actuators in the vehicles for purposes such as updating the vehicles' positions between adjacent tags. Specific applications for intelligent transportation systems are described.
