In accordance with an embodiment, a method for delivering a certificate to a vehicle comprising transmitting the certificate to the vehicle via near field coupling is provided. The near field coupling can be accomplished by transmitting data using a near field coupled antenna to a receiver. The near field coupled antenna can also be used for content delivery such as for example, a streaming video signal, a streaming webcast signal, non-streaming transfer of information, etc. The method can be used for location validation of land vehicles, marine vehicles, and pedestrians as well as content delivery, and payment mechanisms. In accordance with another embodiment a traffic control system is configured to control vehicles and pedestrians in an intelligent transportation system.

A malfunction management unit (MMU) includes advanced diagnostic and set-up
capabilities accessed through a display-based user interface. In general, the
MMU is capable of displaying (1) monitor status information, wherein the
monitor status information includes information relating to the status of at
least a portion of the input signals; and (2) diagnostic information, wherein
the diagnostic information includes an indication of fault type, an indication
of faulty signals, and troubleshooting information associated with said fault
type and relevant faulty signals. The diagnostic information includes a
textual interpretation of the results of a field check analysis.
