LoJack is a vehicle tracking system that allows vehicles to be tracked by police, with the aim of recovering them in case of theft via a small radio transceiver clandestinely installed in a vehicle.

Bit rate: 1200 bits per second

Modulation rate: 1200 baudBaud (unit symbol Bd) is the unit for symbol rate or modulation rate in symbols per second.

Binary “0”/Space: 1.5 cycles of an 1800 HzHertz (Hz), unit of frequency, defined as one cycle per second (1 Hz). sine wave

Binary “1”/Mark: 1 cycle of a 1200 HzHertz (Hz), unit of frequency, defined as one cycle per second (1 Hz). sine wave

Samples


Example of an active vehicle beacon on 173.0750MHz with tower noise. Can anyone identify the beacon low-hi noise in HzHertz (Hz), unit of frequency, defined as one cycle per second (1 Hz).?
