Criminal vehicle control method using electronic toll collection system {SUPERVISE MEHOED FOR OFFENSE VEHICLES USING ELECTRONIC TOLL COLLECTION SYSTEM}

The present invention relates to a method for cracking down a criminal vehicle using an electronic toll collection system, and in particular, without re-investment of equipment for criminal vehicle crackdown by using imaging equipment and sensing equipment currently used in an electronic toll collection system (ETCS). The present invention relates to a method for cracking down on a criminal vehicle using an electronic toll collection system, which enables the rapid arrest of criminal vehicles entering the country.

ITS (Intelligent Transport System) is a new technology that innovatively improves the mobility, stability, efficiency and traffic environment of transportation by combining the existing transportation system with advanced technologies such as information communication, electronics, control and computer. Refers to the transportation system.

In particular, the Electronic Toll Collection System (ETCS), which is designed for automatic toll collection during Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) in intelligent traffic systems, transmits / receives I / O processing at a certain distance to the point where the vehicle passes. Each Gantry with an antenna is installed to wirelessly communicate with the OBU (On Board Unit) card installed inside the vehicle to pass and input various vehicle information and collect fees.

This system is being used for highway toll collection and urban congestion toll collection, and its importance is increasing as a means to effectively and efficiently handle traffic volume.

On the other hand, the electronic toll collection system (ETCS) uses a camera to photograph license plates and use the image information when there is violation information, such as when an OBU card is not attached or the remaining card fee is insufficient. It is a system that conducts the inquiry of the car and issues a notice of violation.

The traffic management system is divided into the Freeway Traffic Management System (FTMS) and the Urban Traffic Management System (UTCS). For example, Korea Expressway Corporation uses the Seoul Expressway, the Gyeongin Expressway, and the Gyeongbu Expressway. The highway control system (FTMS) is operated on the section, and each local government including Seoul Metropolitan Government has established and operated the Urban Traffic Control System (UTCS) in cooperation with the Ligation Agency.

The government provides advanced traffic management system (ATMS) with five services including real-time traffic control, accidental situation management, automatic enforcement, automatic toll collection, heavy vehicle management, and traffic management system, automatic enforcement system and automatic tariff for cities, highways and national roads. It operates six construction systems, including a collection system and a heavy vehicle management system.

On the other hand, the conventional toll collection system (TCS) of the conventional highway determines the type of vehicle by the sensor to classify the type of vehicle when the vehicle enters, the position of the fare ticket is different according to the vehicle type, the vehicle always stops to receive the fare ticket Due to the delay of the vehicle is happening.

The Electronic Toll Collection System (ETCS), designed to improve this problem, installs each Gantry with a transmitting and receiving antenna at a certain distance at the point where the vehicle passes, and wirelessly communicates with the OBU card installed inside the vehicle. Input and output of vehicle information and collection of charges, cameras are installed to photograph the vehicle number in order to deal with violation information such as when the OBU card is not attached or the fee remaining on the card is insufficient.

Currently, the Korea Toll Road Electronic Toll Collection System (ETCS) has the same structure as that of Figure 1, and this device is equipped with two Gantries (G1 and G2), and one of them (G1) It is used to attach the sorting sensor, and another (G2) is used to attach the equipment for communicating with the OBU card.

Accordingly, when the vehicle enters the toll gate, the sensor classifying the vehicle type classifies the vehicle type, and the apparatus for reading the OBU card collects a fee from the card attached to the entered vehicle by communicating with the OBU card.

By the way, if the OBU card is not known to be charged or the violation information, such as not attached to the OBU card is known to shoot the back or front of the vehicle and the vehicle image is configured to issue a penalty by querying the vehicle.

However, in the related art, the image of the vehicle is photographed only when the OBU card is violated, and the image is compressed and stored, thereby preventing the efficient use of the image photographing apparatus.

Therefore, the present invention has been created to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, without re-investment of the device for criminal vehicle control by utilizing the imaging equipment and sensing equipment currently used in the electronic toll collection system (ETCS), Criminal vehicle control method using electronic toll collection system that enables criminals who enter highways to be cracked and to quickly detect crime vehicles such as vehicle theft and license plate theft to have a great effect on crime prevention. The purpose is to provide.
