METHOD FOR READING A VEHICLE TAG WITHIN A READ STATION
First Claim
1. A method of reading a data transmission from an electronic transmitting device mounted to a vehicle tire assembly, comprising:
- positioning a convex upper surface of a stand to intercept a vehicle tire of the vehicle tire assembly;
establishing rotational engagement between the vehicle tire and the convex upper surface of the stand to slow the speed of the vehicle and reduce the rotational rate at which the vehicle tire rotates to a targeted reduced rotational read rate;
directing an antenna field from at least one antenna toward an approach path of the vehicle tire to the convex upper surface of the stand to receive data transmission from the electronic transmitting device as the vehicle tire passes over the stand upper surface at the reduced rotational read rate.

Abstract
A method of reading a data transmission from an electronic transmitting device mounted to a vehicle tire assembly includes: positioning a convex upper surface of a stand to intercept a vehicle tire of the vehicle tire assembly; establishing rotational engagement between the vehicle tire and the convex upper surface of the stand to slow the speed of the vehicle and reduce the rotational rate at which the vehicle tire rotates to a targeted reduced rotational read rate; and directing an antenna field from at least one antenna toward an approach path (and at least one antenna toward the exiting path) of the vehicle tire to the convex upper surface and lower surface of the stand to receive data transmission from the electronic transmitting device as the vehicle tire passes over the stand upper surface then down the lower surface at the reduced rotational read rate.
