Abstract

In the method for automated access control of air passengers in airports, the boarding pass carried by an air passenger is evaluated. The data recorded as a bar code on the boarding pass is read by means of a bar code reader at a pass-through. A central database is used to check whether a blocking note is stored for the respective boarding pass. If this is not the case, the locking device of the pass-through is opened. As soon as the air passenger has passed through the pass-through, a blocking note relating to the boarding pass is dispatched and stored in the database.

Description

Verfahren und Einrichtung zur automatisierten Zutrittskontrolle von Fluggästen in Method and device for automated access control of passengers in
FlughäfenAirports
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Einrichtung zur automatisierten Zutrittskontrolle von Fluggästen in Flughäfen mittels der von den Fluggästen mitgeführten Bordkarten.The invention relates to a method and a device for the automated access control of passengers in airports by means of the boarding passes carried by the passengers.
Beim Einchecken für einen Flug wird dem Fluggast eine Bordkarte ausgehändigt. In der Reiseprozeßkette bis zum Einsteigen erfolgt mehrfach eine Kontrolle der Bordkarte durch das dafür abgestellte Personal. Diese der üblichen Praxis entsprechende Kontrolle der Bordkarten ist personalintensiv und genügt nur minimalen Sicherheitskriterien. Insbesondere kann mit einer solchen rein visuellen Kontrolle der Bordkarten nicht verhindert werden, daß Fälschungen benutzt werden.When checking in for a flight, the passenger is given a boarding pass. In the travel process chain to the boarding takes place several times a check of the boarding pass by the staff for this purpose. This control of boarding passes according to the usual practice is labor-intensive and meets only minimal safety criteria. In particular, with such a purely visual control of boarding passes can not be prevented that counterfeits are used.
Die vorliegende Erfindung nutzt den Umstand, daß die FluggesellschaftenThe present invention takes advantage of the fact that the airlines
Bordkarten ausgeben, die mit einer Strichcode-Codierung versehen sind. Entsprechende Bordkarten werden als „Bar Coded Bording Pass" (BCBP) bezeichnet. Auf einem solchen BCBP sind in codierter Form mindestens folgendeIssue boarding passes, which are provided with a bar code coding. Corresponding boarding passes are referred to as the "Bar Coded Bording Pass" (BCBP), and at least one of such coded BCBPs
Daten gespeichert:Data saved:
- Flugnummer- flight number
- Flugtag- Flight day
- Check-in sequence number.- Check-in sequence number.
Anhand dieser Daten ist jede Bordkarte eindeutig identifiziert.Based on this data each boarding pass is clearly identified.
Naturgemäß darf eine Bordkarte nur einmal benutzt werden. Die in den beigefügten Patentansprüchen angegebene Erfindung schlägt daher vor, die Kontrolle der Bordkarten mittels speziellen Durchgangsschleusen zu automatisieren. An den Durchgangsschleusen sind Barcode-Leser (Scanner) angeordnet, und der Fluggast wird aufgefordert, seine Bordkarte dem Barcode- Leser zu präsentieren. Die von der Bordkarte eingelesenen Daten werden dann mit dem Datenbestand einer flughafenweit erreichbaren zentralen Datenbank abgeglichen. Bei erfolgreichem Datenabgleich wird die Absperreinrichtung der Durchgangsschleuse vorübergehend geöffnet. Anschließend wird der Durchgang des Fluggastes durch die Durchgangsschleuse registriert. Nachdem der Fluggast die Durchgangsschleuse passiert hat, wird ein Sperrvermerk zu der Datenbank gesendet und darin eingetragen. Falls nun eine gefälschte Bordkarte verwendet wird und zu der echten Bordkarte bereits ein Sperrvermerk eingetragen ist, wird der Benutzer der gefälschten Bordkarte bei der automatisierten Bordkartenkontrolle abgewiesen.Naturally, a boarding pass may only be used once. The invention set forth in the appended claims therefore proposes to automate the control of the boarding passes by means of special transit locks. Barcode readers (scanners) are located at the transit gates and the passenger is requested to present his boarding pass to the barcode reader. The read in from the boarding pass then data aligned with the database of an airport-wide accessible central database. If the data alignment is successful, the shut-off device of the through-lock is opened temporarily. Subsequently, the passage of the passenger is registered through the transit lock. After the passenger has passed the transit lock, an inhibit note is sent to the database and entered therein. If now a fake boarding pass is used and the real boarding pass is already registered a blocking note, the user of the fake boarding pass is rejected during the automated boarding pass control.
Die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene automatisierte Bordkartenkontrolle kann eine Reihe weiterer Aufgaben erfüllen. Zum einen können die bei der Bordkartenkontrolle ausgelesenen Daten zu Statistikzwecken weiterverarbeitet werden. Ferner ist vorgesehen, das Passieren der Durchgangsschleuse als Kriterium zum Verladen von Gepäckstücken zu verwenden. Falls nämlich ein Fluggast, zu dessen Bordkarte kein Sperrvermerk eingetragen ist, trotz erfolgreichen Datenabgleichs die Durchgangsschleuse nicht passiert, kann so verhindert werden, daß sein Gepäck eingeladen wird und später wieder entladen werden muß.The inventively provided automated boarding pass control can fulfill a number of other tasks. On the one hand, the data read out during boarding pass control can be further processed for statistical purposes. It is further provided to use the passage of the through-lock as a criterion for loading luggage. Namely, if a passenger to whose boarding pass registered no blocking note, despite successful data matching the transit lock does not happen, can be prevented so that his luggage is invited and later unloaded again.
Darüber hinaus ist vorgesehen, die automatisierte Bordkartenkontrolle zu nutzen, um gezielt Fluggäste ohne ausreichende SicherheitsüberprüfungenIn addition, it is envisaged to use the automated boarding pass control to target passengers without adequate security checks

Dieser Vermerk wird bei der Bordkartenkontrolle erkannt, wobei dann der Fluggast aufgefordert wird, eine besondere Service-Stelle aufzusuchen.Deposit a corresponding note in the barcode on the boarding pass. This note is recognized at the boarding pass check, and then the passenger is requested to go to a special service point.
Einzelheiten der Erfindung sind in den beigefügten Zeichnungen dargestellt. In den Zeichnungen zeigen:Details of the invention are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the drawings show:
- Figur 1 ein Übersichtsschema einer Flughafen-Einrichtung zur automatisierten Zutrittskontrolle mittels Bordkarten; und- Figure 1 is a block diagram of an airport facility for automated access control using boarding passes; and
- Figur 2 ein Flußdiagramm, das den Ablauf des Verfahrens zur automatisierten Zutrittskontrolle veranschaulicht. Bei dem in Figur 1 dargestellten Übersichtsschema wird vorausgesetzt, daß das Gelände eines Flughafens in allgemein zugängliche Verkehrsbereiche und davon abgegrenzte gesicherte Abfertigungsbereiche aufgeteilt ist. Für die Fluggäste ist ein Betreten des gesicherten Abfertigungsbereiches nur durch spezielle Schleusen möglich, an denen eine automatisierte Bordkartenkontrolle stattfindet. In Figur 1 sind zwei Bordkartenkontrollstellen schematisch dargestellt. Jede Bordkartenkontrollstelle enthält eine Anzahl von Durchgangsschleusen. Bei dem gezeigten Beispiel sind drei derartige Schleusen für vollautomatisierten Betrieb eingerichtet. Eine weitere Schleuse in jeder der zwei Bordkartenkontrollstellen ist für die Unterstützung durch spezielles Personal eingerichtet.Figure 2 is a flow chart illustrating the procedure of the automated access control method. In the overview scheme shown in FIG. 1, it is assumed that the terrain of an airport is divided into generally accessible traffic areas and secured dispatching areas delimited therefrom. For passengers, access to the secure check-in area is only possible through special locks on which an automated boarding pass inspection takes place. In Figure 1, two boarding pass checkpoints are shown schematically. Each boarding pass control station includes a number of transit locks. In the example shown, three such locks are set up for fully automated operation. Another lock in each of the two boarding pass checkpoints is set up for the assistance of dedicated personnel.
Jede Durchgangsschleuse ist mit einer Absperreinrichtung, einem Steuergerät („dient") und einem Barcode-Leser ausgestattet. Alle Steuergeräte sind über ein Netzwerk mit einer zentralen Datenbank verbunden, die flughafenweit über das Netzwerk erreichbar ist. Da die automatisierte Bordkartenkontrolle keine unzumutbaren Wartezeiten an den Durchgangsschleusen erzeugen darf, werden alle Komponenten des Systems mit hoher Leistungsfähigkeit ausgelegt. Zu den nützlichen Ausstattungen der Durchgangsschleusen gehört eine Anzeigetafel, auf der die Fluggäste flugrelevante Daten angezeigt bekommen. Ferner ist jede Bordkartenkontrollsteüe mit Anzeigekonsolen ausgestattet, auf denen die für den Abfertigungsprozeß relevanten Daten angezeigt werden. Die Datenbank stützt sich auf einen leistungsfähigen Server. Ferner sind über das Netzwerk Dateneingabestationen angeschlossen, über die alle relevanten Flugdaten in die Datenbank eingegeben werden. Für die Auswertung der Daten können spezielle Auswerteterminals über das Netzwerk auf die Datenbank zugreifen.Each gateway is equipped with a shut-off device, a "serving" controller and a barcode reader, and all the controllers are networked to a central database that can be reached across the network from anywhere in the airport Amongst the useful features of the transit locks is a display board where passengers can view flight-related data, and each boarding card control desk is equipped with display consoles that display the data relevant to the handling process The database is based on a powerful server, and data entry stations are connected via the network to enter all relevant flight data into the database access the database via the network.

Schritt 20 der Fluggast aufgefordert, sich zu einer bestimmten Service-Stelle zu begeben. Im Schritt 22 wird geprüft, ob die Bordkarte gültig ist. Ist die Bordkarte ungültig, erfolgt die Aufforderung wie im Schritt 20. Im Schritt 26 wird die Absperreinrichtung der Durchgangsschleuse geöffnet. Daraufhin werden dem Fluggast im Schritt 28 die für seinen Flug relevanten Daten auf der Anzeigetafel der Durchgangsschleuse angezeigt. Im Schritt 30 wird geprüft, ob der Fluggast die Durchgangsschleuse passiert hat. Ist dies nicht der Fall, wird im Schritt 32 geprüft, ob eine Wartezeit von einigen Sekunden verstrichen ist. Ist dies der Fall, wird angenommen, daß der Fluggast die Durchgangsschleuse nicht passiert hat, und im Schritt 34 wird die Absperreinrichtung der Durchgangsschleuse wieder geschlossen. Andernfalls wird im Schritt 36 veranlaßt, daß ein Sperrvermerk zu der Bordkarte abgesetzt und in der Datenbank gespeichert wird. Zugleich kann auf der Anzeigetafel der Durchgangsschleuse eine Botschaft wie „Guten Flug" angezeigt werden. Step 20 The passenger is asked to go to a specific service point. In step 22 it is checked whether the boarding pass is valid. If the boarding pass is invalid, the request is made as in step 20. In step 26, the shut-off device of the through-lock is opened. Then, in step 28, the passenger will be presented with the data relevant to his flight on the through-lock display panel. In step 30 it is checked whether the passenger has passed through the through-lock. If this is not the case, it is checked in step 32 whether a waiting period of a few seconds has elapsed. If this is the case, it is assumed that the passenger has not passed the passage lock, and in step 34, the shut-off valve is closed again. Otherwise, at step 36, an inhibit note is issued to the boarding pass and stored in the database. At the same time, a message such as "Good Flight" can be displayed on the transit gate scoreboard.
