1. A vehicle, comprising:
- at least one motor being configured for selective mechanical coupling with at least one drive wheel of the vehicle; and
a motor controller that provides a motor control signal to the at least one motor or an electrical component connected to the at least one motor, wherein the motor controller further utilizes the at least one motor to transmit an electromagnetic signal to a receiver system, and wherein the motor controller comprises a motor speed controller that selectively adjusts a rotational speed of the at least one motor thereby causing the at least one motor to emit the electromagnetic signal at a predetermined frequency.

Abstract
Systems of an electrical vehicle and the operations thereof are provided. In particular, a motor controller is described. The motor controller is described to have the ability to emit an electromagnetic signal via a motor of the electrical vehicle. The motor controller may be designed to control a speed of the motor'"'"'s rotation so as to control a frequency of the emitted electromagnetic signal.

10. A motor controller for use in an electric vehicle, the motor controller comprising:
-
a motor speed controller that provides motor control signals that adjust a rotational speed of a motor; and a motor decoupling manager that selectively mechanically couples and decouples the motor from a drive shaft, wherein the motor speed controller further utilizes the motor to transmit an electromagnetic signal when the motor is mechanically decoupled from the drive shaft. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A system for transmitting a message, the system comprising:
-
a motor configured to be mechanically coupled to and decoupled from a first drive wheel of a vehicle; and a motor controller in communication with the motor, the motor controller being positioned in a feedback control loop for the motor and further receiving an external input signal that causes the motor controller to utilize the motor for transmission of an electromagnetic signal. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)
