Key Personnel

   Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) - - Highway Electronics provides technical support and leadership for multiple ETC contracts for our clients. We have created a complete Statement of Work (SOW) for the Toronto's Highway 407 Toll System Extension and Enhancements contract. Our staff also defined a SOW for 407 ETR Concession Ltd., that defines the requirements for an ATM Fiber Communication System used to support that fully electronic tolling system. Highway Electronics also provides the 407 ETR Concession with project technical direction and oversight of the systems integrator, Raytheon, and the communication system contractor, Bell Telephone of Canada.

   Requests of Proposal, Proposal Generation, Statement of Work Preparation - - Highway Electronics has supported our clients in requirements definition, proposal response review, SOW creation and contract negotiations for over $90 million dollars in contracts. Prior to joining the Highway Electronics organization, our staff created proposals that resulted in the capture of over $200 million dollars in contract awards for ITS systems. Highway Electronics can use the knowledge, expertise and experience they gained in these efforts to make your project development efforts successful and profitable.

   Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO) - - Highway Electronics provides technical analysis and evaluation of DSRC systems for several major CVO organizations. This analysis includes several different types of DSRC technologies and other communication systems that can be used in Truck Stops, at Border Crossings, for Weigh Station Clearance, and other CVO implementations. Prior to joining the Highway Electronics organization, our engineering staff worked for a major electronic contractor and created designs that are used in all the major CVO projects in the United States. These included the I-75 corridor system, that runs 1200-plus miles from Florida, USA to Toronto, Canada and the HELP project that covers a majority of the western states in the USA. These same design concepts were also used in the CVO border crossing projects between the USA and Canada, and the USA and Mexico.

   Dedicated Short Range Communication Standards - - Highway Electronics' engineering staff provides key technical inputs to DSRC standards both in North America (ASTM/IEEE) and Internationally (ISO). Highway Electronics is a key member of the North America's American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) writing groups that developed the ASTM version 6 Data Link Layer and the ASTM version 7 Physical Layer. Highway Electronics is also a member of the IEEE writing group that developed the IEEE P1455 Application Layer and Mailbox Application standard. Highway Electronics' Roger O'Connor developed the concept of the 'sandwich standard' that is the US National DSRC standard. He is also a US technical expert to the International Standards Organization (ISO) DSRC technical committee (TC204).

   RF Analysis - - Highway Electronics' engineering staff has extensive knowledge in the development and utilization of analysis programs that can predict the performance of DSRC systems. These analysis programs will not be 'ivory tower' models. These models will accurately predict 'real life' DSRC performance. They are based on knowledge about the physics of the DSRC link and the characteristics of the RF environment gained after years of communication model development for a major electronic contractor.

   Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) - - Highway Electronics' staff provides our clients with technical support in all areas of ITS design. Highway Electronics understands the USOs National Architecture that is being used as a model around the world. Highway Electronics can convert this architecture into systems that can be implemented and developed into profitable businesses.
