High-speed weigh in motion (HS-WIM) is a real-time unmanned system for measuring the weight of a freight-carrying vehicle while it is in motion without controlling vehicle traffic flow or deceleration. In Korea, HS-WIM systems are installed on the national highways and general national ways for pre-selection by law enforcement. In this study, to improve the measurement accuracy of HS-WIM, we devise improvements to the existing integral and peak weight conversion algorithms, and we provide a new fusion algorithm that can be applied to the mat-type HS-WIM. As a result of analyzing vehicle driving tests at a real site, we confirmed the highest level of weight-measuring accuracy.

In this paper, we propose the design technique of the vehicle's load weight measuring system using tire pressure, which is one of the physical elements of tires. The proposed technique consists of four processes: noise correction by load and vibration, gas flow correction, data mixer and weight conversion. Noise correction by load and vibration eliminates noise that increases the tire's internal pressure due to external shocks and vibrations produced by the vehicle while it is in motion. In the gas flow correction process, the noise of the internal pressure of the tire is increased due to the temperature rise of the ground with respect to the data obtained through the noise correction process due to the load and vibration. In the data mixer process, the load and pressure on the tolerances the empty, median and the full load are classified according to the change in pressure of the tire that is delivered perpendicular to the tire in the event of cargo. In the weight conversion process, weight is expressed by weight through weight conversion algorithms using noise correction results by load and vibration and gas flow correction. The weight conversion algorithm calculates the weight conversion factor, which is the slope of the linear function with respect to the load and pressure change, and converts the weight. In order to evaluate the accuracy of the loading weight measurement system of the vehicle using the tire pneumatic system technique proposed in this paper, we propose the design technique of the vehicle's load weight measuring system using tire pressure, which is one of the physical elements of tires.. Noise correction results by load and vibration and gas flow data correction results showed reliable results. In addition, repeated weight precision test showed better weight accuracy than the standard value of 90% of domestic companies.
