Abstract
Embodiments include systems and methods for automatically populating a safety message, such as a Basic Safety Message (BSM), with a position and combined length of a vehicle and a towed object. Some embodiments include determining a distance from one or more antennas coupled to a receiver in the vehicle to a remote sensor on the towed object by processing short-range wireless signals received from the remote sensor. Some embodiments include populating the safety message with a position of the vehicle and the towed object based on the determined distance from the one or more antennas to the remote sensor.
