Multi-lane vehicle access using ultra-wideband systems and methods

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions which, when executed by a hardware processor, are configured to:

• receive, from a first vehicle, a first ultra-wideband signal;
• receive, from a second vehicle, a second ultra-wideband signal;
• analyze the first and second ultra-wideband signals to determine respective first and second position data associated with the respective first and second vehicles;
• determine, based on the first position data, a location of the first vehicle within a multi-lane access point;
• determine, based on the second position data, a location of the second vehicle within the multi-lane access point;
• and
• transmit, to a first movable barrier operator, an instruction to open a first movable barrier for the first vehicle, based on the determined location of the first vehicle.

A method for controlling vehicle flow through a multi-lane access point, the method comprising:

• receiving, from a first vehicle, a first ultra-wideband signal;
• receiving, from a second vehicle, a second ultra-wideband signal;
• analyzing the first and second ultra-wideband signals to determine respective first and second position data associated with the respective first and second vehicles;
• determining, based on the first position data, a location of the first vehicle within the multi-lane access point;
• determining, based on the second position data, a location of the second vehicle within the multi-lane access point;
• and
• transmitting, to a first movable barrier operator, an instruction to open a first movable barrier for the first vehicle, based on the determined location of the first vehicle.
