It has a configuration to which information data is added.
[0029]
The history information request message 400 is a message sent by the receipt issuing device 100 to the IC card 200 in order to request the usage history information 204, and is subjected to arithmetic processing on a message identification code 401 indicating the history information request message 400. The configuration is such that a first random number 402 generated by the unit 101 is added. The first random number 402 is held by the arithmetic processing unit 101.
[0030]
The history information response message 403 is a message transmitted from the IC card 200 to the receipt issuing device 100 as a response to the history information request message 400, and the message identification code 404 indicating the history information response message 403 has a data length. 403, a card ID 406 for uniquely specifying the IC card 200 that sends the history information response message 403, and all usage information including data 300 to 304 stored in the storage unit 203 of the IC card 200. 204, a first signature information (digital signature) 407, and a second random number 408. The first signature information 407 is obtained by electronically encrypting data obtained by adding the card ID 406, the data 300 to 304 of all the usage history information 204, and the first random number 402 using the built-in encryption key in the arithmetic processing unit 201. This is generated by the conversion process, and is used by the authorization processing unit 103 of the receipt issuing device 100 to authenticate the history information response message 403. The second random number 408 is generated by the arithmetic processing unit 201. The second random number 408 is held by the arithmetic processing unit 201. Further, the data length 405 represents the number of bits from the card ID 406 to the number of issuances 304.
[0031]
The mutual authentication message 409 is a message for notifying the IC card 200 of a result of the authentication processing unit 103 authenticating the history information response message 403 by the receipt issuing device 100, and the history information response message 403 is valid ( Therefore, the use history information 204 of the history information response message 403 is notified), and the second signature information 411 is added to the message identification code 410. The second signature information 411 is obtained by storing the second random number 408 assigned to the history information response message 403 in the arithmetic processing unit 201 of the IC card 200 by the arithmetic processing unit 101 of the receipt issuing device 100. Created by an electronic encryption process using the same encryption key as the encryption key.
[0032]

A history number 300 of the usage history information 204 printed on a message recognition code 413 indicating that the message is a print completion notification message 412 and a number 304 of issuance of a receipt from the usage history information 204 are given as an instruction message. It was done. The update completion notification message 414 is a message transmitted from the IC card 200 to the receipt issuing device 100 as a response to the printing completion notification message 412, and includes only the message identification code 415 indicating the update completion notification message 414. Be composed.
[0034]
Next, the operation of the first embodiment will be described.
[0035]
FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing a specific example of the processing procedure of the receipt issuing device 100 in FIG. Hereinafter, the first embodiment will be described with an example in which the first embodiment is used for a taxi as described above. It is also assumed that the taxi travels on the highway on the highway using ETC, the passenger reaches a desired destination, and the driver is in a stage where the driver charges the passenger. For this reason, in the IC card 200 possessed by the driver, the use history information associated with the traffic on the expressway is stored in the storage unit 203 as described above.
[0036]
1 and 4, first, a taxi driver inserts the IC card 200 into the IC card R / W section 108 of the receipt issuing device 100. As a result, the system program 106 stored in the storage unit 104 of the receipt issuing device 100 is activated (Step 500). As a result, the arithmetic processing unit 101 generates a history information request message 400 to which the first random number 402 has been added, and sends it out of the IC card R / W unit 108 to the IC card 200 (step 501). Wait for a response (step 502). The first random number 402 is stored in the authentication processing unit 103.
[0037]
Thereafter, as a response to the history information request message 400, the history information response message 403 to which the history information 204, the first signature information 407, and the second random number 408 are added from the IC card 200 to the IC card R / W unit 108 is sent. Upon receipt (step 502), the arithmetic processing unit 101 determines whether or not the history information response message 403 has a specified format. If the history information response message 403 has a specified format, the history information response message 403 is determined. Is authenticated by the authentication processing unit 103 (step 503). This authentication uses the above-mentioned encryption key to add information obtained by adding the card ID 406 (FIG. 3) of the history information response message 403, the usage history information, and the first random number 402 previously transmitted in the history information request message 400. The processing is performed by creating signature information and comparing the signature information with the first signature information 407 in the received history information response message 403. If the signature information does not match (step 503), the received history information response message 403 is regarded as invalid, and the processing is stopped (step 504). If the signature information matches, the received history information response message is received. 403 is authenticated as valid (step 503).
[0038]
If the history information response message 403 is authenticated, the arithmetic processing unit 101 determines the second signature information from the second random number 408 of the received history information response message 403 and the built-in encryption key. 411, a mutual authentication message 409 (FIG. 3) obtained by adding the message 411 to the message identification code 410 is transmitted from the IC card R / W unit 108 to the IC card 200, and the usage history information of the received history information response message 403 is used. 24 is displayed on the display unit 102. FIG. 5A shows a specific example of the selection screen 520, in which all the usage history information 204 in the history information response message 403 is displayed together with the card ID (step 505). Of the displayed usage history information 204, a receipt that needs to be issued is selected. In this case, the usage history information 204 of the use section of the expressway through which the taxi has just passed is selected (by selecting by touch operation). When the "confirm" button 521 is operated (such a button may be a touch operation or a click operation: step 506), the arithmetic processing is performed. The unit 101 activates the receipt issuing program 105 stored in the storage unit 104 to create a format of a receipt to be printed from the selected usage history information 204 (step 507). When there are a plurality of use history information 204 that require a receipt to be issued due to, for example, passing through a highway a plurality of times, the user can select each of the use history information 204 and operate the “confirm” button 521 to obtain these. A receipt format is created for each usage history information 204.
[0039]
In FIG. 5, all the use history information 204 is displayed at the same time. However, as shown in FIG. 6, the use history information 204 may be displayed one by one. In this case, the No. shown in FIG. By operating the “scroll” button 522 in the display state of the usage history information 204 of the history number “0” (history number “0”), as shown in FIG. 1 (history number “1”) is displayed, and each time the “scroll” button 522 is operated, new usage history information 204 is displayed one by one. Then, when the "confirm" button 521 is operated while the necessary use history information 204 is displayed (step 506), the format of the receipt is created as described above (step 507). When there are a plurality of pieces of use history information 204 necessary due to, for example, passing through a highway a plurality of times, the "confirmation" button 521 is operated for each display, and the format of the receipt Is created.
[0040]
Next, the arithmetic processing unit 101 operates the printing unit 107, and uses the format of the receipt to temporarily print the items excluding the total amount 605 and the issuer name as shown in FIG. A receipt 600 'is issued (step 508). This is confirmed by the taxi driver and also by the passenger (step 509). Here, the temporary receipt 600 'does not have the total amount 605 and the name of the issuer, and thus has no effect as a receipt, and is issued for confirmation of the contents.
[0041]
Here, the total amount 605 and the issuer name are not printed on the temporary receipt 600 ′, but only one of them may not be printed. Similarly, the effect as the receipt is Absent. Further, in the case of a taxi, a provisional receipt 600 'is issued in this way to confirm by a passenger, but for example, a person who directly operates the receipt issuing device 100 such as a truck driver. When only the temporary receipt needs to be confirmed, the temporary receipt 600 ′ may be displayed on the display unit 102 as an image. In the case of a taxi, the receipt issuing device 100 is installed in a place where the driver can easily operate. Therefore, such a screen display makes it difficult for passengers to confirm.
[0042]
As described above, the confirmation screen 530 shown in FIG. 5B is displayed on the display unit 102 along with the issuance of the provisional receipt 600 ′. Then, as a result of confirming the provisional receipt 600 ′, if the provisional receipt 600 ′ is not normal (for example, the selected use history information 204 is incorrect: Step 509), the “Reissue” button 532 is clicked. By performing the operation, the processing from step 501 is repeated again (or may be repeated from step 505). However, if the operation is normal, the “OK” button 531 is operated to perform the processing shown in FIG. As shown in b), a regular receipt 600 on which the total amount 605 and the issuer name 606 which are not printed on the temporary receipt 600 'are also printed is issued from the printing unit 107 (step 510). Further, the electronic signature data 607 generated by the authentication processing unit 103 is also printed on the receipt 600.
[0043]
If a receipt format for a plurality of use history information 204 is created as described above by, for example, passing through an expressway a plurality of times, a receipt is issued for each of the use history information 204. .
[0044]
When the printing of the receipt 600 is completed, the arithmetic processing unit 101 of the receipt issuing device 100 sends the message identification code 413 the history number 300 of the usage history information 204 that issued the current receipt and the history information response message 403 (FIG. 3). Then, a print end notification message 412 is added to the issuance number 304 which is one more than the issuance number 304 in the above, and is sent from the IC card R / W unit 108 to the IC card 200 (step 511). When a receipt is issued for each of the plurality of usage history information 204, the history number 300 and the number of issuances 304 of the usage history information 204 are added to the print end notification message 412. The IC card 200 waits for a response to the print end notification message 412 from the IC card 200 (step 512). When the update completion notification message 414 from the IC card 200 is received from the IC card R / W unit 108 as a response, a receipt is received. The process for issuing ends (step 513).
[0045]
FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing a specific example of the processing procedure of the IC card 200 in FIG. 1 with respect to the processing procedure of the receipt issuing device 100 shown in FIG.
[0046]
1 and 5, when the IC card 200 is inserted into the IC card R / W unit 108 of the receipt issuing device 100 (Step 700), the IC card 200 waits for reception of a message from the receipt issuing device 100 (Step 700). 701), when the history information request message 400 from the receipt issuing device 100 is received by the connection unit 202 (Step 702), the arithmetic processing unit 201 reads all the usage history information 204 from the storage unit 203, and reads the usage history information 204. Using the above-described built-in encryption key, information obtained by adding the card ID 406 of the IC card 200 and the first random number 402 of the history information request message 400 to the first signature information 407 is created. Information 204, the first signature information 407, a newly generated second random number 408, a card ID 406, and a data length 4 And 5 to create history information response message 403 granted to stage partial identification code 404, and sends the receipt issuing device 100 from the connecting portion 202 (step 703).
[0047]
After that, when the connection unit 202 receives the mutual authentication message 409 to which the second signature 411 formed by processing the second random number 408 using the above-described encryption key from the receipt issuing device 100, The unit 201 supplies the mutual authentication message 409 to the authentication processing unit 205 after determining the quality of the format. The authentication processing unit 205 generates signature information by processing the second random number 408 generated when the history information response message 403 is generated in step 703 using the above-described encryption key. Is compared with the second signature information 411 of the received mutual authentication message 409. When the signature information matches, the mutual authentication message 409 from the receipt issuing device 100 is authenticated as valid, and the history information response message 403 is determined as authentic in the receipt issuing device 100. (Step 705), and waits for reception of the next message from the receipt issuing device 100 (Step 706). However, if the two pieces of signature information compared by the authentication processing unit 205 do not match, or if the mutual authentication message 409 is not sent from the receipt issuing device 100 even after a predetermined time has elapsed, the received signature information is received. If the mutual authentication message 409 is authenticated as incorrect or the receipt issuing device 100 determines that the history information response message 403 is not authenticated (step 705), the process is stopped (step 704).
[0048]
In step 705, the second signature information 411 of the mutual authentication message 409 is decrypted into a second random number 408 using an encryption key, and the decrypted second random number 408 and the second random number 408 stored in the arithmetic processing unit 201 are stored. The authentication may be performed by comparing the random number 408 with the random number 408.
[0049]
In this manner, the receipt issuing device 100 performs authentication using the signature information 407 of the history information response message 403 (FIG. 3) from the IC card 200 (step 503 in FIG. 4), and together with this, the IC card 200 As described above, the authentication is performed using the mutual authentication message 409 from the receipt issuing device 100, and the mutual authentication is performed between the receipt issuing device 100 and the IC card 200.

[0081]
FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating a specific example of the processing procedure of the receipt issuing device 100, the IC card 200, and the usage history management device 900 in FIG. In the following, an example will be described in which the second embodiment is used for a transportation company, and the truck travels on an expressway using ETC. In this case, the receipt issuing device 100, the use history management device 900, and the reading terminal (not shown) of the IC card are installed in a transportation company, and the truck is equipped with an on-board device of ETC. By attaching the IC card 200 to this, information from the ETC is recorded on the IC card 200 as the use history information 204 of the highway. FIG. 12 shows a processing operation for issuing a receipt of a highway toll paid by the ETC using the IC card 200 in which the usage history information 204 is stored as described above. The usage history information 204 stored in the IC card 200 is read from the terminal (not shown) by the usage history management server 900 and stored in the usage history storage unit 902 as customer usage history information 903. It is. The card ID 406 of the IC card 200 is “0123” in FIG.
[0082]
9 and 12, first, the truck driver inserts the IC card 200 into the IC card R / W section 108 of the receipt issuing device 100, and this is the IC card 200, the receipt issuing device 100, and the usage history management. The operation of the server 900 starts.
[0083]
In the receipt issuing device 100, the system program 106 is activated, the arithmetic processing unit 101 creates a history information request message 400 (FIG. 11), sends the message 400 from the IC card R / W unit 108 to the IC card 200, and Wait (step 1000). In the IC card 200, when the history information request message 400 is received by the connection unit 202, the arithmetic processing unit 201 responds to this by sending all history numbers 300 of the usage history information 204 from the storage unit 203 (that is, the history number “ 0 ”,“ 1 ”, and“ 2 ”), and a history information response message 403 (FIG. 11) to which this is attached and the card ID 406 of“ 0123 ”of the IC card 200 is created. It is sent to the issuing device 100 (step 1001).
[0084]
In the receipt issuing device 100, when the history information response message 403 is received from the IC card R / W unit 108, the arithmetic processing unit 101 causes the data portion of the history information response message 403 excluding the message identification code 404 and the A history acquisition message 416 (FIG. 11) is created by adding the random number 402 of 1 to the message identification code 417, and sent to the use history management server 900 from the communication control unit 109 via the network 800 (step 1002). At this time, the first random number 402 is held in the arithmetic processing unit 101.
[0085]
In the usage history management server 900, when the communication control unit 904 receives the history acquisition message 416, the arithmetic processing unit 901 stores the card ID 406 and the history number 300 assigned to the history acquisition message 416 in the usage history storage unit 902. (Step 1003). As a result of the comparison, the customer use history information 903 for the IC card 200, that is, the card ID 406 is "0123" and the history numbers "0", "1", " 2), all the data of the date and time 301, the use section 302, the amount of money 303, and the number of issuances 304 are read out, the first signature information 420 and the second random number 421 are added to the message identification code 419, and the history acquisition response message 418 (FIG. 11) is created and sent from the communication control unit 904 to the receipt issuing device 100 (step 1004). Here, as the first signature information 420, data obtained by adding the first random number 402 assigned to the history acquisition message 416 to the customer use history information 903 for the IC card 200 by the arithmetic processing unit 901 is included in the built-in encryption code. The second random number 421 is generated by processing with a key, and is also generated by the arithmetic processing unit 901, and is held by the arithmetic processing unit 901.
[0086]
Therefore, in the receipt issuing device 100, when the transmission control unit 109 receives the history acquisition response message 418, the arithmetic processing unit 101 executes the above-described usage history management including the second random number 421 of the history acquisition response message 418. By processing using the same encryption key as the encryption key in the server 900, the second signature information 411 is created, and this is added to the message identification code 410 to create the mutual authentication message 422 (FIG. 11). Then, the mutual authentication message 422 is sent from the communication control unit 109 to the use history management server 900 (step 1005).
[0087]
Then, in the usage history management server 900, when the communication control unit 904 receives the mutual authentication message 422, the arithmetic processing unit 901 processes the second random number 421 stored therein using the above-mentioned encryption key. Thus, the signature information is created, and the authentication processing unit 905 compares the signature information with the second signature information 411 of the received mutual authentication message 422. If the signature information matches, the process waits for the next information from the receipt issuing device 100. If not, the process is stopped (step 1007). Similarly, in the receipt issuing device 100, when the above-described history acquisition response message 418 is received from the usage history management server 900, the arithmetic processing unit 101 holds the history acquisition response message 418 in the customer use history information 903 of the history acquisition response message 418. By processing the data to which the first random number 402 is added using the built-in encryption key, signature information is created, and the authentication processing unit 103 outputs the signature information and the first log of the received history acquisition response message 418. The signature information 420 is compared with the signature information 420. When these pieces of signature information match, the process proceeds to the next processing operation, but when they do not match, the processing is stopped (step 1006).
[0088]
In step 1007, the second signature information 411 of the mutual authentication message 422 is decrypted into a second random number 421 using an encryption key, and the decrypted second random number 421 and the second random number 421 stored in the arithmetic processing unit 901 are stored. The authentication may be performed by comparing the random number 421 with the authentication number.
[0089]
When the customer usage history information 903 is sent from the usage history management server 900 to the receipt issuing device 100 in this way, the receipt issuing device 100 and the usage history management server 900 perform mutual authentication. As a result, it is accurately determined that the validity of the customer use history information 903 has been received by the receipt issuing device 100 without being falsified during transmission, and that the use history management server 900 has been properly notified of this. It has been confirmed. If any one of these is not properly authenticated, the side that has authenticated it aborts the process, so that the process on the other side is eventually interrupted.
[0090]
In the receipt issuing device 100, when the authentication processing unit 103 authenticates that the history acquisition response message 418 received is valid (step 1006), the arithmetic processing unit 101 operates the display unit 102 to operate the history acquisition response message. 418 of the customer history information 903 is displayed (step 1008). The display example is the same as the selection screen 520 shown in FIG. 5A or FIG. 6 above, and one or more desired customer use history information 903 of the displayed customer use history information 903 is selected. When this is done (Step 1009: Here, it is assumed that the customer use history information 903 of the history number 300 of “0” is selected), the arithmetic processing unit 101 sets the “0” of the selected customer use history information 903 to “0”. Of the IC card 200 and the card ID 406 of “0123” of the IC card 200 to the message identification code 424 to create a receipt acquisition message 423 (FIG. 11), and send it from the communication control unit 109 to the use history management server 900. (Step 1010).
[0091]
Therefore, in the usage history management server 900, when the receipt acquisition message 423 is received by the communication control unit 904, the arithmetic processing unit 901 sends the card ID 406 in the receipt acquisition message 423 from the usage history storage unit 902 to “0123”. The customer use history information 903 with the history number 300 of “0” is read (when there are a plurality of history numbers 300 in the receipt acquisition message 423, the customer use history information 903 of all the history numbers 300 is read. Read), and supplies it to the receipt issuing processing unit 906. The receipt issuance processing unit 906 creates a receipt format 427 for creating a receipt by printing based on the customer use history information 903 (when a plurality of customer use history information 903 is supplied, each A receipt format is created for each receipt), and this is added to the message identification code 426 to create a receipt acquisition response message 425 (step 1011), which is sent from the communication control unit 904 to the receipt issuing device 100. (Step 1012).
[0092]
In the receipt issuing device 100, when the communication control unit 109 receives the receipt acquisition response message 425, the arithmetic processing unit 101 supplies the receipt format 427 of the receipt acquisition response message 425 to the printing unit 107, and As shown in (a), a provisional receipt 600 'from which at least one of the total amount and the issuer name is removed is issued (step 1013), and the receipt is made in the same manner as in the first embodiment. The receiver of the letter (in this case, the truck driver) checks whether the total amount 605 or the items other than the issuer name are normally printed (step 1014).
