Abstract

Method for checking data relating to a motor vehicle and its circumstances, e.g. relating to its parking in a metered area, involves issuing a vehicle with a transponder which is reader by a checking person with a suitable short-range checking device. Once the data has been read by a checking unit and checked for validity, it is displayed to the checking person. The data can be used in conjunction with other data, e.g. originating from a central control center, which is communicated over a long-range communications device. An independent claim is made for a system for checking data relating to a motor vehicle and its circumstances.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Überprüfung von Daten betreffend einen durch eine Kontrollperson zu überprüfenden Sachverhalt eines Gegenstands, insbesondere eines Fahrzeugs, wobei die zu überprüfenden Daten sowohl Informationen betreffend den Gegenstand als auch betreffend den zu überprüfenden Sachverhalt enthalten und insbesondere mit einem Manipulationsschutz, wie z. B. einer elektronischen Signatur oder dergleichen, versehen sind.The invention relates to a method for checking data regarding a subject to be checked by a control subject of an object, in particular a vehicle, wherein the data to be checked both information regarding the subject and regarding the subject matter to be examined and in particular with a tamper protection, such , As an electronic signature or the like, are provided.

Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin ein System zur Überprüfung von Daten betreffend einen durch eine Kontrollperson zu überprüfenden Sachverhalt eines Gegenstands, insbesondere eines Fahrzeugs, wobei die zu überprüfenden Daten sowohl Informationen betreffend den Gegenstand als auch betreffend den zu überprüfenden Sachverhalt enthalten und insbesondere mit einem Manipulationsschutz, wie z. B. einer elektronischen Signatur oder dergleichen, versehen sind. Auch betrifft die Erfindung einen Transponder sowie eine Kontrollvorrichtung für ein solches System.The invention further relates to a system for checking data relating to a subject of an object, in particular a vehicle, to be checked by a control person, wherein the data to be checked contain information concerning the object as well as the subject matter to be checked and in particular with manipulation protection, such as z. As an electronic signature or the like, are provided. The invention also relates to a transponder and a control device for such a system.

Dabei ist im Allgemeinen kein Besitzverhältnis hinsichtlich des Gegenstands, in Bezug auf den ein bestimmter Sachverhalt zu überprüfen ist, und der Kontrollperson gegeben.In general, there is no ownership of the object, in relation to a particular one The facts are to be checked and given to the inspector.

Aus der Praxis sind verschiedene Verfahren bekannt, um Daten betreffend einen Sachverhalt eines Gegenstands durch eine Kontrollperson zu überprüfenden.From practice, various methods are known for verifying data relating to an item's subject matter by a controller.

Insoweit kann z. B. bei parkenden Kraftfahrzeugen eine Parkberechtigung durch visuelle Kontrolle eines im Kraftfahrzeug ausgelegten Parkscheins überprüft werden. Da der Fahrer des Kraftfahrzeugs in der Regel den Parkschein auf der Fahrerseite auf das Armaturenbrett legt und Kraftfahrzeuge üblicherweise auf der rechten Straßenseite abgestellt werden, muss die Kontrollperson zur Überprüfung des Parkscheins die Straße betreten und wird insofern durch den fließenden Verkehr gefährdet. Auch ist es von Nachteil, dass durch die unmittelbare Begutachtung eines jeden Kraftfahrzeugs dieses quasi als "verdächtig" angesehen wird und insofern die Führer der Fahrzeuge unangenehm berührt sein können. Vorfälle zwischen Kontrollpersonen, wie z. B. Politessen, und Fahrzeugführern sind häufig und belasten die Arbeit der Kontrollpersonen.In that regard, z. B. in parking motor vehicles a parking authorization by visual inspection of a designed in the motor vehicle parking ticket to be checked. Since the driver of the motor vehicle usually puts the parking ticket on the driver's side on the dashboard and motor vehicles are usually parked on the right side of the road, the inspector must enter the street to check the parking ticket and is thus endangered by the flowing traffic. It is also a disadvantage that the direct assessment of each motor vehicle this is considered quasi "suspicious" and insofar as the drivers of the vehicles can be unpleasantly affected. Incidents between control persons, such as As road wardens, and drivers are frequent and burden the work of the inspectors.

Nachteilig bei hinter der Windschutzscheibe befindlichen Informationen ist, dass diese bei verschmutzter Verglasung und/oder Feuchtigkeit auf den Scheiben von außen nur schlecht oder aber gar nicht mehr erkennbar sind.A disadvantage of information located behind the windshield is that they are only poorly or no longer recognizable from the outside when dirty glazing and / or moisture on the windows.

Weiterhin ist es bekannt, dass über Mobilfunk ein "einbuchen" in ein entgeltliches Parksystem erfolgen kann und somit eine Parkerlaubnis gegen entsprechendes Entgelt erworben wird, wobei dann keine schriftliche Bestätigung für die Parkerlaubnis erstellt werden kann. Nachteilig hierbei ist, dass zur Überprüfung der Parkerlaubnis die Kontrollperson die Erlaubnisvergabestelle kontaktieren muss, was in der Regel ebenfalls per Mobilfunk geschieht. Die damit verbundenen Kosten verhindern jedoch eine wirtschaftlich Nutzung dieses Kontrollverfahrens.Furthermore, it is known that via mobile phone can "book" in a paid parking system and thus a parking permit is purchased for a corresponding fee, then no written confirmation for the parking permit can be created. The disadvantage here is that to check the parking permit, the control person must contact the licensing authority, which is usually also done via mobile phone. However, the associated costs prevent an economic use of this control method.

Auch sind passive "Tags" bekannt, die am Kraftfahrzeug angebracht sind und mittels entsprechender Kommunikationsgeräte ausgelesen werden können. Die passiven Tags werden dabei durch den Lesevorgang mit Energie versorgt, wodurch eine Versendung des Speicherinhalts ermöglicht wird. Allerdings ist die Reichweite solcher passiver Tags mit ca. 10 bis 30 cm sehr begrenzt, so dass die gleichen Nachteile wie bei gedruckten Parkscheinen bestehen.Also, passive "tags" are known, which are mounted on the motor vehicle and can be read by means of appropriate communication devices. The passive tags are powered by the reading process with energy, whereby a transmission of the memory content is made possible. However, the range of such passive tags with about 10 to 30 cm is very limited, so that there are the same disadvantages as in printed parking tickets.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, die vorgenannten Nachteile zu vermeiden und eine Möglichkeit anzugeben, mit der Daten betreffend einen Sachverhalt eines Gegenstands durch eine Kontrollperson leicht und aus einer gewissen Entfernung von einigen Metern überprüft werden können.The object of the invention is to avoid the aforementioned disadvantages and to provide a way in which data relating to a situation of an object can be easily checked by a control person and from a certain distance of a few meters.

WO-02/48975 offenbart die Merkmale des Oberbegriffs von Anspruch 1 und 3. WO-02/48975 discloses the features of the preamble of claims 1 and 3.

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch ein Verfahren zur Überprüfung von Daten betreffend einen durch eine Kontrollperson zu überprüfenden Sachverhalt eines Gegenstands, insbesondere eines Fahrzeugs, wobei die zu überprüfenden Daten sowohl Informationen betreffend den Gegenstand als auch betreffend den zu überprüfenden Sachverhalt enthalten und insbesondere mit einem Manipulationsschutz, wie z. B. einer elektronischen Signatur oder dergleichen, versehen sind, wobei dem Gegenstand eine insbesondere als Transponder ausgebildete Identifizierungseinrichtung zugeordnet ist, die einen Speicher zur Hinterlegung der zu überprüfenden Daten aufweist, der durch eine der Kontrollperson zugeordnete Kommunikationseinrichtung per Kurzstreckenfunk auslesbar ist, wobei die Kontrollperson mittels der Kommunikationseinrichtung eine Anfrage hinsichtlich der zu überprüfenden Daten an die Identifizierungseinrichtung richtet, und
entweder
bei im Speicher der Identifizierungseinrichtung hinterlegten entsprechenden zu überprüfenden Daten nach Auslesen und insbesondere Überprüfung dieser Daten auf ihre Echtheit zumindest ein Signal zur Bestätigung des angefragten Sachverhalts auf einer der Kontrollperson zugeordneten Anzeigeeinrichtung ausgegeben wird,
oder aber
bei (noch) nicht im Speicher der Identifizierungseinrichtung hinterlegten entsprechenden zu überprüfenden Daten, wenn ggf. lediglich die Informationen betreffend den Gegenstand, d. h. eine Kraftfahrzeug- und/oder Transponderkennung empfangen wurden, die Kontrollperson eine weitere Anfrage hinsichtlich der zu überprüfenden Daten tätigt, die entweder mittels einer ihr zugeordneten weiteren Kommunikationseinrichtung per Langstreckenfunk an eine die zu überprüfenden Daten betreffende zentrale Verwaltungsstelle oder über die Kommunikationseinrichtung per Kurzstreckenfunk an eine mit der zentralen Verwaltungsstelle verbundene Kurzstreckenfunkschnittstelle in der näheren Umgebung erfolgt und die zu überprüfenden Daten im Bestätigungsfalle von der zentralen Verwaltungsstelle per Langstreckenfunk an die weitere Kommunikationseinrichtung der Kontrollperson übermittelt, auf der Anzeigeeinrichtung angezeigt und mit der Kommunikationseinrichtung per Kurzstreckenfunk in den Speicher der Identifizierungseinrichtung geschrieben werden. Die Daten können dabei beispielsweise über einen mobilen Internetzugang oder dergleichen erreicht werden, der entweder per Mobilfunk (Langstreckenfunk) oder durch Nutzung sogenannter Hotspots (Kurzstreckenfunk) erfolgen kann.This object is achieved by a method for checking data relating to a subject of an object, in particular a vehicle, to be checked by a control person, wherein the data to be checked contain both information concerning the object and the situation to be checked, and in particular with manipulation protection, such as As an electronic signature or the like, are provided, wherein the object is associated with a particular designed as a transponder identification device having a memory for depositing the data to be checked, which is readable by a control person associated communication device via short distance radio, wherein the control person means the communication device directs a request regarding the data to be checked to the identification device, and
either
in the case of data to be checked stored in the memory of the identification device, after reading and in particular checking of these data for their authenticity, at least one signal for confirming the requested subject matter is output on a display device associated with the control person,
or but
at (not yet) stored in the memory of the identification device corresponding data to be checked, if possibly only the information relating to the object, ie a motor vehicle and / or transponder identification were received, the control person makes a further request regarding the data to be checked, either by means of a further communication device assigned to it by means of long-distance radio to a central administration station concerned with the data to be checked or via the communication device via short-distance radio to a short-range radio interface in the immediate vicinity connected to the central administration station and the data to be checked in the case of confirmation from the central administrative office via long-distance radio the further communication device of the control person transmitted, displayed on the display device and the communication device by short-range radio in the memory of Id be written. The data can be, for example be achieved via a mobile Internet access or the like, which can be done either by mobile (long-distance radio) or by using so-called hotspots (short-range radio).

Hierdurch kann eine Kontrollperson Daten betreffend einen Sachverhalt eines Gegenstands leicht und aus einer gewissen Entfernung von einigen Metern überprüfen, so dass ein Betreten der Strasse nicht erforderlich ist und es zudem nicht ohne Weiteres ersichtlich ist, welches Kraftfahrzeug von der Kontrollperson momentan überprüft wird. Die Kosten für die Überprüfung werden insofern gering gehalten, da lediglich bei der Erstüberprüfung eines bestimmten Sachverhalts eine Datenüberprüfung per Langstreckenfunk, d. h. per Mobilfunk, erforderlich ist und bei späteren Überprüfungen, beispielsweise durch andere Kontrollpersonen, aufgrund der in die Identifizierungseinrichtung übertragenen Daten eine Überprüfung per gebührenfreien Kurzstreckenfunk ausreicht. Die Daten können dabei gegen Manipulation gesichert sein, insbesondere in Form einer sogenannten elektronischen bzw. digitalen Signatur; in diesem Fall ist in der Kommunikationseinrichtung der Kontrollperson eine Überprüfungseinrichtung mit entsprechenden Überprüfungs- und Echtheitskriterien vorgesehen.In this way, a control person can easily check data relating to an object of an object and from a certain distance of a few meters, so that it is not necessary to enter the street and it is also not readily apparent which motor vehicle is currently being checked by the control person. The cost of the review will be kept to a minimum, since only at the time of the initial check of a particular issue, a data check by long-distance radio, ie. H. by means of mobile telephony, and, in the case of later reviews, for example by other controllers, a check by toll-free short-distance radio is sufficient on the basis of the data transmitted to the identification device. The data can be secured against manipulation, in particular in the form of a so-called electronic or digital signature; In this case, a checking device with corresponding checking and authenticity criteria is provided in the communication device of the control person.

Vorzugsweise können die Kommunikationseinrichtung für Abfragen der Identifizierungseinrichtung per Kurzstreckenfunk und die Anzeigeeinrichtung insbesondere zusammen mit der weiteren Kommunikationseinrichtung für Abfragen per Langstreckenfunk in eine gemeinsame Kontrollvorrichtung integriert sein, so dass zum einen nur ein Gerät mitgeführt werden muss und die Kosten für die Hardware durch ein gemeinsames Gehäuse und durch die Vermeidung mehrfacher identischer Bauteile gering gehalten werden. Aufgrund der primär per Kurzstreckenfunk erfolgenden Kontrolle werden auch die Mobilfunkkosten gering gehalten, da jeweils nur bei einer "Erstabfrage" eine Anfrage an die zentrale Verwaltungsstelle erfolgen muss und ansonsten ein direktes Auslesen der Identifizierungseinrichtung erfolgen kann.Preferably, the communication device for interrogation of the identification device by short-range radio and the display device can be integrated in particular together with the other communication device for queries by long-distance radio in a common control device, so that on the one hand only one device must be carried and the cost of hardware through a common housing and kept low by avoiding multiple identical components. by virtue of The primarily by short-range radio control also the mobile costs are kept low, since in each case only a "first query" a request to the central administration must be made and otherwise a direct reading of the identification device can be done.

Die der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Aufgabe wird ebenfalls gelöst durch ein System zur Überprüfung von Daten betreffend einen durch eine Kontrollperson zu überprüfenden Sachverhalt eines Gegenstands, insbesondere eines Fahrzeugs, wobei die zu überprüfenden Daten sowohl Informationen betreffend den Gegenstand als auch betreffend den zu überprüfenden Sachverhalt enthalten und insbesondere mit einem Manipulationsschutz, wie z. B. einer elektronischen Signatur oder dergleichen, versehen sind, wobei dem Gegenstand eine insbesondere als Transponder ausgebildete Identifizierungseinrichtung zugeordnet ist, die einen Speicher zur Hinterlegung der zu überprüfenden Daten aufweist, der durch eine der Kontrollperson zugeordnete Kommunikationseinrichtung per Kurzstreckenfunk auslesbar ist, wobei eine Anfrage hinsichtlich der zu überprüfenden Daten mittels der Kommunikationseinrichtung der Kontrollperson an die Identifizierungseinrichtung richtbar ist, und
entweder
bei im Speicher der Identifizierungseinrichtung hinterlegten entsprechenden zu überprüfenden Daten nach Auslesen und insbesondere Überprüfung dieser Daten auf ihre Echtheit zumindest ein Signal zur Bestätigung des angefragten Sachverhalts auf einer der Kontrollperson zugeordneten Anzeigeeinrichtung ausgebbar ist,
oder aber
bei (noch) nicht im Speicher der Identifizierungseinrichtung hinterlegten entsprechenden zu überprüfenden Daten, wenn ggf. lediglich die Informationen betreffend den Gegenstand, d. h. eine Kraftfahrzeug- und/oder Transponderkennung empfangen wurden, eine weitere Anfrage hinsichtlich der zu überprüfenden Daten mittels einer der Kontrollperson zugeordneten weiteren Kommunikationseinrichtung per Langstreckenfunk an eine die zu überprüfenden Daten betreffende zentrale Verwaltungsstelle oder über die Kommunikationseinrichtung per Kurzstreckenfunk an eine mit der zentralen Verwaltungsstelle verbundene Kurzstreckenfunkschnittstelle in der näheren Umgebung tätigbar ist und die zu überprüfenden Daten im Bestätigungsfalle von der zentralen Verwaltungsstelle per Langstreckenfunk an die weitere Kommunikationseinrichtung der Kontrollperson übermittelbar sind, auf der Anzeigeeinrichtung anzeigbar und mit der Kommunikationseinrichtung per Kurzstreckenfunk in den Speicher der Identifizierungseinrichtung schreibbar sind.The object underlying the invention is also achieved by a system for checking data relating to a subject to be checked by a control subject of an object, in particular a vehicle, wherein the data to be checked both contain information regarding the subject matter as well as concerning the facts to be checked and in particular with a manipulation protection, such. As an electronic signature or the like, are provided, wherein the object is associated with a particular formed as a transponder identification device having a memory for depositing the data to be checked, which is readable by a control person associated communication device via short-distance radio, wherein a request regarding the data to be checked can be directed by means of the communication device of the control person to the identification device, and
either
if the data to be checked stored in the memory of the identification device can be output after read-out and in particular checking of these data for authenticity, at least one signal for confirming the requested state of affairs can be output on a display device assigned to the control person,
or but
at (not yet) stored in the memory of the identification device corresponding data to be checked if possibly only the information relating to the object, ie a motor vehicle and / or transponder identification were received, a further request for the data to be checked by means of a further associated with the control person Communication device via long-distance radio to the data to be checked data concerning central administration or via the communication device short-range radio to a connected to the central administrative short-range radio interface in the vicinity and the data to be checked in the case of confirmation from the central administration office via long-distance radio to the further communication device of Control person can be transmitted, displayed on the display device and the communication device via short-range radio in the memory of the identification be writable.

Hierdurch ist eine Überprüfung der Daten betreffend einen Sachverhalt eines Gegenstands durch eine Kontrollperson leicht und aus einer gewissen Entfernung von einigen Metern möglich, ohne dass ein Betreten der Strasse erforderlich ist. Es ist auch nicht ohne Weiteres ersichtlich, welches Kraftfahrzeug von der Kontrollperson momentan überprüft wird, und die Kosten für die Überprüfung werden gering gehalten, da lediglich bei der Erstüberprüfung eines bestimmten Sachverhalts eine Datenüberprüfung per Langstreckenfunk, d. h. per Mobilfunk, erforderlich ist, wohingegen bei späteren Überprüfungen, beispielsweise durch andere Kontrollpersonen, aufgrund der in die Identifizierungseinrichtung übertragenen Daten eine Überprüfung per gebührenfreien Kurzstreckenfunk ausreicht.This makes it possible to check the data relating to a subject matter of a subject easily and at a certain distance of a few meters without having to enter the road. It is also not readily apparent which motor vehicle is currently being reviewed by the control person, and the cost of the review is kept low, since only at the initial verification of a particular issue, a data check by long-distance radio, ie by mobile phone is required, whereas at later Checks, for example by other controllers, are sufficient to allow verification by toll-free short-distance radio on the basis of the data transmitted to the identification device.

Die Daten können dabei gegen Manipulation gesichert sein, insbesondere in Form einer sogenannten elektronischen bzw. digitalen Signatur; in diesem Fall ist in der Kommunikationseinrichtung der Kontrollperson eine Überprüfungseinrichtung mit entsprechenden Überprüfungs- und Echtheitskriterien vorgesehen.The data can be secured against manipulation, in particular in the form of a so-called electronic or digital signature; In this case, a checking device with corresponding checking and authenticity criteria is provided in the communication device of the control person.

Vorzugsweise können die Kommunikationseinrichtung für Abfragen der Identifizierungseinrichtung per Kurzstreckenfunk und die Anzeigeeinrichtung insbesondere zusammen mit der weiteren Kommunikationseinrichtung für Abfragen per Langstreckenfunk in eine gemeinsame Kontrollvorrichtung integriert sein.The communication device for querying the identification device by short-range radio and the display device can in particular be integrated together with the further communication device for queries by long-distance radio into a common control device.

Vorteilhafterweise kann dabei ein Transponder für ein System der vorgenannten Art derart ausgebildet sein, dass der Transponder zum einen eine eindeutige Identifizierungskennung aufweist und der Speicher als Schreib-Lese-Speicher, insbesondere ohne Löschfunktion, ausgebildet ist.Advantageously, a transponder for a system of the aforementioned type can be designed such that the transponder on the one hand has a unique identifier and the memory is designed as a read-write memory, in particular without a deletion function.

Dabei kann der Transponder mit einer Ein/Ausschaltfunktion versehen sein, die insbesondere einen gepulsten Stand-by-Betrieb (Polling) ermöglichen, so dass durch weitere Energieeinsparung eine möglichst lange Betriebsdauer des Transponders ohne Austausch oder Aufladen der Energiequelle gewährleistet ist. Dabei kann in dem Stand-by-Betrieb der Transponder auch lediglich empfangsbereit für Anfragen sein und erst bei Detektion oder Empfang einer Anfrage wieder vollständig aktiviert werden.In this case, the transponder can be provided with an on / off function, which in particular enable a pulsed stand-by operation (polling), so that as long as possible a service life of the transponder without replacement or charging of the energy source is ensured by further energy savings. In this case, in the stand-by mode, the transponder may also be ready to receive requests only and be fully activated again only upon detection or receipt of a request.

Auch kann die Sendefrequenz des Transponders hinsichtlich Strombedarf und Reichweite für den Betrieb in einem Fahrzeug und die sichere Ablesung durch eine Kontrollperson optimiert sein, so dass eine gerade ausreichende Reichweite erzielt wird und somit der Energieverbrauch möglichst gering gehalten wird.Also, the transmission frequency of the transponder in terms of power consumption and range for operation in a vehicle and the safe reading by a controller to be optimized so that just a sufficient range is achieved and thus the energy consumption is minimized.

Vorteilhafterweise kann dabei eine Kontrollvorrichtung für ein System der vorgenannten Art derart ausgebildet sein, dass, wobei eine Reichweitenanpassung vorgesehen ist. Hierdurch wird die Anzahl der auf eine Anfrage der Kontrollperson "antwortenden" Identifizierungseinrichtungen reduziert, so dass die Kontrollperson schnell und ohne langes Auswählen die richtigen angefragten Daten aus den verschiedenen empfangenen Datensätzen herausfinden und weiter überprüfen kann.Advantageously, a control device for a system of the aforementioned type can be designed in such a way that a range adjustment is provided. This reduces the number of identification devices "responding" to a request from the control person, so that the control person can quickly and without further selecting find out the correct requested data from the various received data sets and further check.

Erfindungsgemäß kann eine Anzeige für die Position der aktuell überprüften Identifizierungseinrichtung vorgesehen sein, so dass bei mehreren auf eine Anfrage hin empfangenen Datensätzen die Auswahl des zu überprüfenden Datensatzes allein aufgrund "geographischer" Kriterien erfolgen kann.According to the invention, an indication of the position of the currently checked identification device can be provided, so that in the case of a plurality of data records received in response to a request, the selection of the data set to be checked can be based solely on "geographical" criteria.

Vorteilhafterweise kann dabei eine zentrale Verwaltungsstelle für ein System der vorgenannten Art derart ausgebildet sein, dass ein Speicher für Daten betreffend einen durch eine Kontrollperson zu überprüfenden Sachverhalt eines Gegenstands, insbesondere eines Fahrzeugs, sowie eine Kommunikationseinrichtung für die Kommunikation per Kurzstreckenfunk und/oder per Langstreckenfunk vorgesehen ist. Hierdurch kann eine solche zentrale Verwaltungsstelle entweder für einen sehr großflächigen Bereich, wie z. B. ein ganzes Stadtgebiet oder dergleichen eingesetzt werden, wobei dann Langstreckenfunk zum Einsatz kommt, es kann aber auch entweder zusätzlich oder aber ausschließlich ein lokal sehr beschränkter Einsatz, z. B. lediglich für eine geringe Anzahl an Kraftfahrzeugstellflächen, erfolgen, wobei ein solcher ausschließlich lokal sehr beschränkter Einsatz lediglich Kurzstreckenfunk erforderlich macht.Advantageously, a central administration point for a system of the aforementioned type can be designed such that a memory for data regarding a subject to be checked by a control subject of an object, in particular a vehicle, as well as a communication device for communication via short-range radio and / or long-range radio provided is. As a result, such a central administration either for a very large area, such. B. a whole city or the like be used, in which case long-distance radio is used, but it can also be either in addition or only a locally very limited use, eg. B. only for a small number of motor vehicle shelves, done, with such only locally very limited use makes only short-distance radio required.

Dabei kann zumindest eine insbesondere als Responder ausgebildete und mit dem Speicher der zentralen Verwaltungsstelle verbundene Kommunikationseinrichtung der zentralen Verwaltungsstelle in ein Straßen- oder Gebäudemobiliar, wie z. B. Parkscheinautomat, Poller- oder Schrankensystem, integriert sein, so dass per Kurzstreckenfunk die Abfrage einer zentralen Abrechnungseinheit an einem Parkplatz oder dergleichen möglich ist. Dies ist beispielsweise bei sogenannten Real-Time-Abrechnungsverfahren sinnvoll, bei denen ein Parkschein für einen langen Zeitraum gelöst und im Kraftfahrzeug hinterlegt werden kann und, sofern die bezahlte Parkzeit nicht benötigt wird, eine Rückerstattung eines Teilbetrages erfolgen kann. Die Kontrollperson, die in einem solchen Fall einen vermeintlich gültigen Parkschein im Kraftfahrzeug findet, muss dann prüfen, ob die zu diesem Parkschein erfolgte Zahlung eventuell bereits teilweise wieder erstattet worden ist und das Fahrzeug insoweit momentan die Parkfläche ohne Entrichtung einer Nutzungsgebühr nutzt.In this case, at least one in particular designed as a responder and connected to the memory of the central administrative office communication device of the central administration office in a street or building furniture, such. As parking ticket machine, bollard or barrier system, be integrated so that the short-distance radio query a central billing unit at a parking lot or the like is possible. This is useful, for example, in so-called real-time billing procedures, in which a parking ticket can be released for a long period of time and deposited in the motor vehicle and, if the paid parking time is not required, a partial amount can be refunded. The control person, who finds in such a case a supposedly valid parking ticket in the motor vehicle, then has to check whether the payment made for this parking ticket may already have been partially reimbursed and the vehicle currently uses the parking area without payment of a user fee.

Gegebenenfalls können solche Transponder oder auch Responder sogar als Relaisstation fungieren und eine Anfrage per Kurzstreckenfunk an eine zentrale Verwaltungsstelle weiterleiten. If appropriate, such transponders or responders even act as a relay station and forward a request by short-distance radio to a central administrative office.
