VEHICLE LOCATION SYSTEMS

Abstract:

Disclosed embodiments include vehicle locating systems and vehicles locatable by vehicle locating systems. An illustrative vehicle locating system includes a first Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacon having a first location associated therewith and configured to receive a first radio frequency signal from a vehicle and coded with vehicle identification information. The first BLE beacon may be further configured to calculate a first proximity of the vehicle to the first BLE beacon and send to a server a first proximity signal indicative of the first proximity. A second BLE beacon has a second location associated therewith and is configured to receive a second radio frequency signal from the vehicle and coded with the vehicle identification information. The second BLE beacon may be further configured to calculate a second proximity of the vehicle to the second BLE beacon and send to the server a second proximity signal representative of the second proximity.
