MAGNETIC INDUCTION COMMUNICATION-BASED VEHICLE CONTROL APPARATUS AND METHOD

A magnetic induction communication-based vehicle control apparatus and method are disclosed. The apparatus includes a first coil (1001), a processor (1002), and a communications interface (1003). The first coil (1001) receives a signal of second coils (1004) laid along a lane. There is a preset relative location relationship between the first coil (1001) and the second coils (1004). When a vehicle equipped with the vehicle control apparatus deviates from a predetermined travel direction, the first coil (1001) generates an electromotive force signal based on a change in the relative location relationship between the first coil (1001) and the second coils (1004). The processor (1002) outputs a second signal based on the electromotive force signal, where the second signal is used to indicate the vehicle to adjust a running track to travel along the predetermined travel direction. According to the apparatus and the method, a travel direction of the vehicle is controlled based on magnetic induction communication. This does not occupy spectrum resources, and features security of near-field communication.
