Abstract

See full text

A vehicle-mounted device that enables adjustment by wireless communication from an external portion, of a threshold value employed for detecting strength of a radio wave emitted from a roadside device. A vehicle-mounted device is disposed within an electromagnetic-shield box, and radio waves for activating use are sent from an antenna within the electromagnetic-shield box to the vehicle-mounted device. The vehicle-mounted device, when activated by this radio wave for activating use, sends an activation acknowledgement signal. A computer determines whether the vehicle-mounted device has been activated according to the presence or absence of the activation acknowledgement signal. The computer sends a radio wave from the antenna to the vehicle-mounted device to set a threshold value in correspondence to the presence or absence of this activation, and sets the threshold value of the vehicle-mounted device. These operations are performed repeatedly to adjust the threshold value of the vehicle-mounted device to an appropriate value.
