Geomagnetic sensor, traffic information measuring device
Description
The present invention relates to a buried traffic information measuring device using a geomagnetic sensor, and in particular, detects the earth's magnetic field distorted by a vehicle running on the road to detect traffic information on the road, such as traffic volume, vehicle presence, vehicle speed, occupancy, and vehicle type. In addition to providing a device that can be accurately identified, the concrete pavement and the asphalt pavement, which are rigid pavement, have little effect on the overlapping of the pavement and the repaving after cutting. A convenient embedded traffic information measuring apparatus.
In order to detect the information of the vehicle passing through the road, various vehicle detection devices such as loop detectors, image detectors, ultrasonic detectors, microwave detectors, and laser detectors have been used.
The loop detector is the most widely used detection device. It detects the occupancy of the vehicle by applying an oscillation signal to the roof coil embedded on the road surface and detecting a change in the magnetic field when there is a metallic object on the road surface. Loop detectors are more widely used as vehicle occupancy sensors because they are more vulnerable to cutting during road construction than ultrasonic and imaging methods. Loop detectors install one or a pair per lane and use oscillating waves of different frequencies to prevent errors caused by magnetic fields induced in adjacent loop coils. As mentioned above, the loop detector has been adopted in most cases in Korea because the detection information is more reliable and cheaper to install than other types of detectors, but the following disadvantages are pointed out.
-The loop detector is affected by the inductance change depending on the pavement of the road and the materials used. Therefore, there is a remarkable difference in performance depending on the absence of construction failure and the shape and size of the detector. That is, there are many cases where it is impossible to collect and collect erroneous data due to moisture or disconnection of the loop detector due to careless construction.
-It is necessary to control traffic flow during installation.
-Deterioration of detector performance due to road damage and deterioration of detector performance due to deformation of pavement. On-site installation is the most detectable method on the market, but no comprehensive verification has been done.
-In case of general national highways, the failure status of loop detectors is increasing by year, with 48 places in 1999, 49 places in 2000, 127 places in 2001, and 140 places in 2002. As the cause of the failure, the failure caused by road damage and disconnection is increasing very rapidly, and the suspension of operation due to the road pavement construction is also increasing.
-For highways, there is a cost for repairing damage and fault detectors once a year for one loop detector. It takes about 2 ~ 3 weeks from the service order of the roof detector to repair and the police consultation according to the selection of maintenance company and the road blockage.The damage and the failure of the loop detector are mostly caused by the lanes. For lanes where information is not collected, traffic information is provided by referring to the information of adjacent lanes.
-It is buried in the road surface, causing a breakdown over time such as damage by a vehicle or natural corrosion (approximately 2 years of endurance of the loop sensor if no loop break occurs).
-According to the internal data of the police unmanned enforcement equipment, the sensor breakdown occurs about twice a year, which is expected to be 20 ~ 30%.
As described above, the loop detector embeds the roof coil over a fairly wide ground, making installation and maintenance difficult, high frequency of breakage, and low speed vehicle detection. In particular, due to road changes in Korea, where asphalt is mostly asphalt, irregularities are generated due to temperature changes, and the breakage rate is high.
1 is a cross-sectional view of the asphalt structure, Figure 2 shows the plastic deformation and fatigue crack as a general damage type of asphalt pavement. Asphalt is composed of an
The image sensor is a method of recognizing a distribution of pixel values of a region to be detected in advance and determining whether to enter a vehicle by changing pixel values when the vehicle enters. In case of Youngsam detector, there is a non-embedded type, and the application cases are increasing recently because of the relative merits of inconvenient installation work and difficulty in maintenance of buried type such as loop detector. In addition, unlike other detectors, there is an advantage that the administrator can check with the naked eye, so if the performance improvement such as resolution is supported, it is expected to be developed in the future. However, it is pointed out that the image detector analysis results are very sensitive to changes in climatic conditions and the environment, such as deterioration of discrimination performance due to sudden changes in the amount of light during rainy weather and sunset. In addition, the installation cost of one place is relatively very expensive.
Ultrasonic sensors are sensitive to climate and surrounding environment, and the detection area is conical, so there is no directivity. Microwave detectors are mainly used to obtain vehicle speed information, but they are expensive to install and require specialists for maintenance. Laser detectors require periodic maintenance for oscillator tuning, and expensive equipment to obtain accurate information.
In order to overcome this disadvantage, a traffic information collection system using a geomagnetic sensor has recently been developed. The conventional traffic information collection system using a geomagnetic sensor is an exposure type to attach and expose by using an adhesive such as epoxy on the road surface as shown in Figure 3, and embedded in the
Since the present invention can be installed in the package only by circular drilling, the installation is simple by minimal traffic control, and reliable data measurement is possible regardless of the quality of the construction and the state of the packaging surface, and repair in case of system failure It is very easy to replace, and when the road repackage is required and the lane position is changed, the geomagnetic sensor case can be easily removed from the package, and the traffic information measuring device can be reused when repacking and changing lanes. It aims to provide.
In addition, even when overlaid on the pavement, it is possible to continuously operate the system only by installing the intermediate connection, and reusable road-filled traffic information that prevents the battery generated from the ground such as asphalt from being damaged by high geothermal heat after installation. It is to provide a measuring device.
Still another object of the present invention is to embed a piezo cable in a package even at an installation place such as a tunnel entrance / exit entrance where solar light cannot be used, and to detect the geomagnetic sensor by a voltage induced by the pressure applied to the piezo cable when the vehicle passes. An object of the present invention is to provide a road-mounted traffic information measuring device that can be driven.
An object of the present invention is a buried type traffic information measuring device using a geomagnetic sensor and embedded in a road to measure traffic information, which is embedded in the road, has a receiving space inside, and a case having an open surface at the top thereof. A geomagnetism case provided with a main body, a case cover detachably attached to the case main body, and covering the opening surface, and accommodated in an accommodation space of the geomagnetism case and detecting a change of geomagnetism caused by a vehicle passing through an upper part of the road, A buried type traffic information measuring apparatus using a geomagnetic sensor, characterized by comprising a geomagnetic sensor unit for wirelessly transmitting a signal and a power source unit for supplying power to the geomagnetic sensor unit.
The power supply unit is configured to include a solar cell and a storage battery accumulating power generated from the solar cell, and the case cover further includes a concave recessed surface, which accommodates the cell and is formed of a transparent material to protect the solar cell. In order to provide a transparent cover coupled to the case cover at the top of the cell.
Alternatively, the power supply unit may be configured to include a piezo cable embedded in a road near the geomagnetic case and a storage battery that accumulates power generated from the piezo cable.
The traffic information measuring apparatus of the present invention can be easily installed with minimal manpower and time input by fixing a protective case with a filler and then installing a geomagnetic sensor therein after circular drilling in the package.
In addition, the geomagnetic sensor protected by a solid case is always installed in a fixed position inside the case, so that it is possible to secure constant and reliable data at all times regardless of construction quality, and is a rigid case fixed in a small round hole of the package. Since the geomagnetic sensor is installed inside, there is an effect that damage such as disconnection of the sensor does not occur due to breakage of the package such as plastic deformation and fatigue cracking.
The geomagnetic sensor installed inside the case opens the cover to protect the case in case of a failure, and it is very easy to repair or replace the geomagnetic sensor, which enables quick system restart with minimal traffic control and convenient maintenance. Since there is a peeling layer between the case and the filler to fill the round hole, the geomagnetic sensor case can be easily removed from the package by lifting the case at any time, so that it can be reused when repacking and changing lanes. City has the advantage that the system can be operated continuously by installing the intermediate connection in the existing case.
By installing an insulation cover surrounding the battery, it is possible to prevent the battery generated from the ground such as asphalt from being damaged by high geothermal heat.
In addition, the traffic information measuring device of the present invention, when the entrance and exit of the tunnel or the solar light for energy acquisition is not secured, and it is difficult to supply sufficient power by the solar cell, the piezo cable is embedded in the package, the piezo when passing the vehicle Due to the voltage induced by the pressure applied to the cable, it is possible to provide a road-mounted traffic information measuring device capable of driving the geomagnetic sensor.

8 is an embodiment of a buried traffic information measuring device using a geomagnetic sensor according to the present invention. The difference from the traffic information measuring apparatus shown in FIG. 5 will be described in detail. In FIG. 8, a piezo cable is used without using a solar cell as an energy source.
FIG. 9 is a block diagram illustrating a supporter sensor unit and a power unit applied to the buried traffic information measuring apparatus of the present invention. The
The piezo cable is used as an axle detection sensor. When the piezo cable is powered by the weight of the vehicle (when pressure is detected), the voltage generated at that time is used for energy accumulation and axle detection signals. The charging unit includes a rectifier circuit for converting an AC signal generated from a piezo cable or a solar cell into a DC voltage, and a capacitor for smoothing it. A rechargeable battery is a rechargeable battery that functions to supply power to the geomagnetic sensor. In particular, if a piezo cable or solar cell fails, a separate generic battery (not charged) can be used to transmit data in an emergency.
The microprocessor controls the entire system, wakes up via input signals from the piezo cable, and drives / controls the geomagnetic sensor. The internal A / D converter is used to digitize the voltage signal from the occupied (magnetic) sensor, which is responsible for information processing such as vehicle presence and vehicle classification. In addition, the traffic information is temporarily stored in the flash memory, and a control signal is wirelessly transmitted to the receiver when necessary.
According to the present invention, there is provided a buried traffic information measuring device using two types of geomagnetic sensors: (1) a method of using a piezo cable as an axle sensor and a power source, and (2) a method of not using a piezo cable. In the piezo cable system, the microprocessor can be woken up by using the voltage generated by the piezo cable when the vehicle passes over the piezo cable. On the other hand, in the remaining method, a trigger circuit is separately provided between the geomagnetic sensor and the microprocessor, and the microprocessor can be woken up using the trigger signal generated therefrom. In this case, since the geomagnetic sensor and the voltage amplifier must be kept powered and operated at all times, power consumption is increased rather than using a piezo cable. In the present invention, a microprocessor having each terminal (two terminals in total) capable of receiving two interrupt signals generated from a piezo cable and a trigger can be easily applied to any method.
The wireless RF transceiver module is responsible for transmitting the acquired traffic information to the receiver. FLASH MEMORY is a storage medium that temporarily stores acquired traffic information. The flash memory is stored even when there is no power supply, and data storage such as when transmitting a signal directly from a microprocessor is not necessary or processed. If the amount of data is not large, it does not necessarily have to be provided.
The sensor control circuit is responsible for generating the control signals (Set / Reset, Offset) necessary to drive the geomagnetic sensor, and the set / reset signal aligns the magnetic material of the magnetization sensor in one direction to precisely change the change caused by the magnetic field. To be detected. The offset signal uses a bridge circuit to detect the change of the minute magnetization sensor, and serves to make the output voltage zero. The geomagnetic sensor is a sensor in which the earth's geomagnetic field changes when the vehicle moves, and the resistance changes by detecting the intensity of the geomagnetic field that changes. Honeywell's HMC105X IC was used as the sensor. The voltage amplifier is a device for amplifying the signal before converting the voltage into digital because the voltage output from the geomagnetic sensor is very small, a few mV.
Hereinafter, the operation of the circuit block diagram of FIG. 9 will be described.
1. When the power is turned on, the microprocessor goes to sleep mode (power save mode).
2. When the piezo cable is pressed by the vehicle, a voltage is generated, which charges the battery through the charging section and at the same time wakes up the microprocessor (operation mode).
3. The microprocessor drives the geomagnetic sensor through the sensor control circuit and amplifies the voltage signal from the sensor through the voltage amplifier.
4. The amplified signal is acquired as digital data through the A / D converter built in the microprocessor.
5. From the data thus obtained, information such as vehicle speed, occupancy rate and axle is extracted.
6. If necessary, the extracted data is stored in flash memory, and the data stored at regular intervals is transmitted to the receiver through the wireless RF transceiver module and then returned to SLEEP mode.
