Mobile object locating system
First Claim
1. A system for the location of a mobile object such as a vehicle employing a remote control system comprising:
- a control device associated with the mobile object;
an identification device on the user side, for example with an associated transceiver or with separate transmitter and receiver devices;
transceiver or separate transmitter and receiver devices associated with the mobile object; and
at least one antenna arrangement associated with the mobile object for bidirectional wireless communication with the identification device, wherein the reception and/or transmission characteristics of the antenna arrangement can be set such that a monitored zone results around this mobile object which, observed in the horizontal plane, extends over a fan angle of at least substantially 360°
, wherein means for the detection of the respective spacing between the identification device and the mobile object and/or for the detection of a change in this spacing are provided, and wherein the identification device includes signaling and/or display means to signal and/or display at least the respective spacing between the identification device and the mobile object and/or the change in this spacing.

Abstract
In a system for remotely locating a mobile object and in particular of a vehicle on the basis of a remote control system comprising a control device associated with the mobile object, an identification device on the user side, for example with an associated transceiver or with separate transmitter and receiver devices, a transceiver or separate transmitter and receiver devices associated with the mobile object, and at least one antenna arrangement associated with the mobile object for bidirectional wireless communication with the identification device, the reception and/or transmission characteristics of the antenna arrangement can be set such that a monitored zone results around this mobile object which, observed in the horizontal plane, extends over a fan angle of at least substantially 360°. Means for the detection of the respective spacing between the identification device and the mobile object and/or for the detection of a change in this spacing are provided. The identification device includes signaling and/or display means to signal and/or display at least the respective spacing between the identification device and the mobile object and/or the change in this spacing.
