The sensors use an oscillator to generate the signal, which is transmitted through the air and picked up by the microphone, which then converts it into an audio file. The audio files are then examined to determine their similarity and proximity. When they are close enough, the system will transmit an alert signal to the key and will send an ID signal that matches with the vehicle.
