Description

Toll Collection system and Method for Closed Toll Gate

The present invention relates to a system and method for toll collection, in particular, toll gate of the closed toll gate to collect the toll according to the distance from the entrance to automatically recognize the vehicle passing through the toll gate to the closed toll road It is about collection method.

In general, a vehicle using a toll road such as a highway is required to pay a toll. To this end, a toll gate is installed at the entrance and the exit of the toll road to collect the toll.

Also, the toll collection method is divided into an open type that collects a certain fare according to the type of vehicle at the entrance toll gate and a closed type that collects the fare differentially based on the type of vehicle and the distance used at the exit toll gate. The present invention relates to a method for toll collection of a closed toll gate.

In order to collect charges in the above manner, conventionally, a person is disposed at each toll gate to stop the vehicle and calculate the charge when the vehicle enters and exits.

This conventional method has caused a lot of manpower that has to be disposed in the toll gate, and the loss of vehicle operation delay, waste of fuel cost, etc. due to the vehicle stopped to pay a fee.

Therefore, a toll collection system using a short range wireless dedicated communication system technology is currently being introduced.

Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) is a roadside unit (RSU) installed around a road using a frequency band of 5.8 GHz and an on-vehicle device (OBU) mounted on a vehicle. It is a system that communicates only when a vehicle equipped with a vehicle mounting device passes through a communication zone formed by an antenna connected to a roadside base station by a wireless communication method between board units.

In addition, current short-range wireless dedicated communication system is divided into two types, passive and active.

The short-range wireless dedicated communication system has been introduced and commercialized long time ago in advanced countries such as the United States and Japan, or is in the research stage for commercialization.

In particular, the short-range wireless dedicated communication system that has been commercialized in developed countries to date is passive, and its propagation characteristics are the same as those of FIG. 1, and FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the characteristics of the conventional passive short-range wireless dedicated communication system.

Referring to FIG. 1, the passive type adopts a unidirectional communication method. That is, when the roadside base station 20 sends out a radio wave to a vehicle equipped with the vehicle mounting apparatus 10 which has entered the communication area, the vehicle mounting apparatus 10 conveys the radio wave transmitted from the roadside base station 20. This is how you do it.

However, the passive short-range wireless dedicated communication system cannot provide various services only with its own vehicle-mounted device. Therefore, it is necessary to configure a system linked with a car navigation system (CNS) to expand its application area and to provide other services. The problem of allocating different frequencies for each service makes it difficult to provide multiple services with only a single vehicle-mounted device.

Meanwhile, FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating propagation characteristics of an active short-range wireless dedicated communication system applied to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, a bidirectional communication method between the vehicle-mounted device 10 and the roadside base station 20 is adopted. . In other words, not only the roadside base station 20, but also the vehicle-mounted device 10 has a unique power transmission function.

In other words, the on-vehicle device of the active short-range wireless dedicated communication system has a unique power transmission function, and includes a function of collecting information from surrounding vehicles, so that the information can be exchanged with the roadside base station, and thus the application area is wide.

The active short-range wireless dedicated communication system is capable of integrating the bus information system (BIS) and the vehicle tracking system into a single vehicle on board as well as the function to inform the traffic information and the charge collection using the smart card. It can receive video and audio according to its own information requirements, and it is possible to collect and distribute various Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) information.

In the present invention, unlike the prior art, an active short range wireless dedicated communication system is implemented.

As described above, in order to solve problems such as waste of manpower, waste of fuel costs, and delays in driving a system in which a conventional manpower is disposed at a toll gate and collecting charges, the present invention uses an active short-range wireless dedicated communication system. To present a toll collection system and method for automatically collecting tolls through wireless communication with roadside base stations when vehicles equipped with on-vehicle devices pass through a toll gate, and in particular, types of vehicles that pass on toll roads. And a toll collection system and method for a closed toll gate that collects a different amount according to the distance between the entrance toll gate and the entrance toll gate.

1 is a diagram showing propagation characteristics of a conventional passive short-range wireless dedicated communication system.

2 is a diagram showing propagation characteristics of an active short-range wireless dedicated communication system applied to the present invention.
