Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system for debiting road tolls, also known as an electronic toll system.
  • FIG. 1 shows a fee entry point 1, a badge 2 for attachment to a motor vehicle 3, a public telecommunications network 4, a fee entry point 5 and a paying agent 6.
  • the present example is based on a badge system that was originally developed to identify the individuals of a livestock to be monitored by remote inquiry. A further development of this badge system is currently being introduced in the European railways to monitor freight wagons and freight containers.
  • the original badges with which the animals were marked in any way known per se, were constructed in such a way that, when receiving RF energy at a certain frequency, they used the energy received to be on the same frequency with the number of the badge and thus to send back the modulated signal to the number of the marked animal.
  • Interrogation stations could be attached to drinking troughs, game changes or entrances to pens. They had to have an RF continuous wave transmitter and an RF receiver with a demodulator, with which the badges could be queried and their numbers evaluated.
  • Such badges also called TAGs, and such interrogation stations are also commercially available, for example badges of the type AT5540 or AT5100 from Alcatel-Amtech, Paris or devices of the type AR2602 and AI1200 from the same company for activating badges and for detecting the badge number.
  • the solution according to the invention usually allows fee collection points to be constructed using already existing facilities, such as Combine bridges or carriers of traffic signs. As a rule, several fee entry points can be grouped together.
  • toll collection shown on a motorway bridge there is one device for activating badges and for recognizing the badge number for each direction of travel and lane.
  • the required facilities are only available once. The facilities that are required to document any violations, to exclude ambiguities in the recording or to enable type-dependent tariffing (motorcycle, car, truck) are not shown.
  • the badge 2 is about the size of a telephone card and should be attached, for example, behind the rear-view mirror in the vehicle 3. Neither a fixed nor an electrically conductive connection to the vehicle 3 is required.
  • a badge number is required as data content of the badge, which can be queried from the outside. More information, that are user-specific or vehicle-specific can be added, but are not mandatory. While they could reduce the risk of incorrect bookings, they would also reduce the anonymity and flexibility of the application. If only a badge number is used, for example, a larger user group with a correspondingly large number of vehicles and also a larger number of badges could exchange the badges either specifically or at random, either from an operational point of view for the purpose of order-related billing or to achieve a high degree of anonymity .
  • the billing number read from the badge 2 is reported to the fee entry center 5 via the public telecommunications network 4.
  • This message must also contain all the data necessary for the fee collection center to charge the location, time and vehicle-type-specific fees together with the data available there. Which data is then also documented is a purely organizational question and is independent of the present invention.
  • the charge registration center 5 now has a charge memory which has a storage location which can be directly or indirectly addressed by the badge number for each billing number assigned to this charge registration center. Furthermore, the toll registration center has means to record the street usage fee to be charged on the basis of the reported data, possibly with additional information to be documented, in the allocated storage space.
  • the charging stations can each be like a mobile radio subscriber station or like a stationary one Terminal equipment connected to the public telecommunications network; however, they can also initially be combined in a radio network or cable network of the operator, and can only be connected together to the public telecommunications network.
  • Sufficient implementation options are also known for the technical design of the fee collection center.
  • it can also be connected to a device for recording and charging telephone charges.
  • the relevant fee collection center is selected on the basis of the sticker number.
  • the means required to determine the responsible toll collection center based on the badge number and to forward messages about road tolls to be charged can either be in each toll collection center itself or in a toll collection center assigned to a plurality of toll collection centers.
  • Network centers of road network or telecommunications network operators or facilities of so-called intelligent networks can also be considered for this.
  • the storage spaces for fee credit must save the respective credit balance.
  • the corresponding fee must be deducted after passing through a toll station.
  • the storage accounts for clearing accounts must each save at least the sum of all accrued and unpaid charges and a bank account from which the charges incurred can be debited. Similar to normal bank accounts, the necessary individual data of each booking process must be saved here.
  • devices can be assigned to the charge store, which, in the event of insufficient charge credit, issues a message to a traffic monitoring point assigned to the requesting charge entry point. It can also be provided that only random checks with requests to the central fee office are provided. This would correspond to the usual procedure for ticket inspection in local public transport. If neither a clearing account nor a fee credit can be determined, the badge must be reported as forged or invalid.
  • a paying agent 6 is also provided in FIG. 1 for the billing process with the aid of fee credits.
  • it is coupled to a filling station, for example a motorway filling station. Border crossing points can also be considered.
  • a filling station for example a motorway filling station. Border crossing points can also be considered.
  • the sale of badges with fixed credit is also possible on machines that have no connection to the rest of the system. If there is enough cheap manufacturing possibility for badges, it is not necessary to increase the fee credit. Also a return option for Plaques with repayment of the remaining credit are possible, for which purpose a corresponding bidirectional connection between the paying agent 6 and the fee collection center 5 is required.
  • the system described can also be combined with other types of systems for paying road user fees both on the entry side with the fee entry point 1 and on the billing side. It can also be combined with devices for monitoring or controlling traffic or for generating statistics.
