Abstract

A method for localizing an on-board unit, which has a radio transceiver and an identifier, to a predefined area around a radio beacon, comprising the following steps: a) storing the identifier and an associated radio property in a database; b) sending a first request; c) receiving a first response from an on-board unit; d) determining, from the database, the radio property of the transceiver associated with the received identifier; and e) localizing the on-board unit in the predefined area; wherein: the steps b) to e) are repeated, for each run-through of the steps b) to e), a localization result is stored in a presence list, and the localizing is verified when the number of the positive localization results exceeds a threshold value.
