STUCK-ON CALLS Sample Clauses

STUCK-ON CALLS. A stuck-on call is defined as an activation that continues to indicate the presence of a vehicle when in reality the vehicle has already departed. A minimum stuck-on time of 10 seconds had to elapse before it was flagged as a potential stuck-on call. Stuck-on calls may affect the safety of the crossing because they may prevent the exit gates from being lowered, increasing the chances of vehicles’ entering the conflicting areas when a train is present or approaching. The percentage of stuck-on calls was estimated as the ratio of the number of stuck-on calls to the total calls from the zone (similar to the procedure used for false calls). The methodology used in this study is intended to determine significant discrepancies in the detection performance when the sensors are compared to a human observer, and using loops detection as a pointer to potential errors. It is noted that even without any detection errors, the total number of individual calls generated by radar and loop detectors may not match exactly mainly due to the following situations: 1) vehicles following each other closely may generate a continuous call in one system, but two separate calls in other system, 2) vehicles occupying portions of both traveled lanes, particularly when turning to or from the intersecting street, and resulting two calls (one in each lane). Therefore, it is likely that the total number of calls placed by the radar minus false calls and plus missed calls, will not be equal to the total number of calls placed by the loop detectors.
