The communication unit 140 may connect the device 100 and a server device (not shown) for managing disabled parking. The communication unit 140 includes at least one of a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN), Internet of Things (IOT), Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT), MIoT (Mobile IoT), SIGFOX, and LoRaWAN Based communication module. Particularly, since the parking interrupter can be configured to be attached to or mounted on a part of a parking guide sign or a disabled parking sign, etc., the communication unit 140 can include a communication module capable of realizing low- It is enough.

The control unit 110 stores a ROM or a ROM 112 storing a control program for controlling the apparatus 100 and a signal or data input from the outside of the apparatus 100, And a RAM (RAM) 113 used as a storage area for a work to be performed. The CPU 111 may include a single core, a dual core, a triple core, or a quad core. Preferably, the CPU 111 can be designed so as to minimize power consumption while processing the control program. The CPU 111, the ROM 112, and the RAM 113 may be interconnected via an internal bus. The control unit 110 may control the operations of the communication unit 140, the camera unit 130, the sensor unit 120, and the storage unit 150 so as to minimize the power consumed by the apparatus 100. [

The storage unit 150 may store signals or data input / output corresponding to the operation of the sensor unit 120, the camera unit 130, and the communication unit 140 under the control of the controller 110. [ The storage unit 150 may store control programs and applications for controlling the apparatus 100 or the control unit 110. [

Particularly, the small-size power supply unit 160 is not required to be connected to a commercial power source, and is small enough to be attached to or mounted on a part of a parking guide sign or a parking sign. In addition, the small power unit 160 may include a portable battery. As another example, the small power unit 160 may include a wireless power receiving module capable of receiving and outputting power from a wireless power supply unit that transmits power wirelessly.

Hereinafter, the operation of the component provided in the above-described parking interrupter will be described.

The control unit 110 is operated in a standby mode and the control unit 110 may switch to an operation mode when a sensor value is input from a proximity sensor included in the sensor unit 120 to perform an operation described below. Here, the standby mode may be an operation for checking whether a signal is inputted from the sensor unit 120 without the controller 110 performing a separate operation.

Furthermore, the control unit 110 may generate a signal indicating that it is normally operating for each predetermined time unit, and may transmit the generated signal to an external device (e.g., a server device).

On the other hand, the control unit 110, which has been switched to the operation mode, can control the operation of the camera unit 130 to be started. Accordingly, the camera unit 130 may provide an image to be captured to the control unit 110, and may store the image in the storage unit 150.

The control unit 110 can confirm whether or not the vehicle located in the parking zone is a registered vehicle using the photographed image. For example, the control unit 110 can check whether there is an indication (e.g., a disabled parking permit) for identifying a disabled vehicle in the photographed image. Alternatively, the control unit 110 recognizes the license plate area in the photographed image, and detects the vehicle number to confirm whether the vehicle is registered as a disabled vehicle. At this time, the control unit 110 confirms whether the vehicle is registered as the disabled vehicle based on the data stored in the storage unit or transmits the vehicle number to the server device that manages the disabled parking through the communication unit 140, You can ask for confirmation.

Further, the control unit 110 transmits the photographed image to the server apparatus for managing the disabled parking through the communication unit 140, requests confirmation of whether or not the vehicle is a disabled registered vehicle, .

As another example, the control unit 110 may check whether the vehicle is a disabled registered vehicle by using an RFID tag containing disabled parking information (e.g., an identifier indicating whether the vehicle is a disabled registered vehicle). For example, the communication unit 140 may further include an RFID communication module capable of performing RFID communication. Accordingly, the control unit 110 can start the operation of the RFID communication module for a predetermined time (e.g., three minutes) as it is switched to the operation mode, and can confirm whether the disabled parking information is obtained from the RFID tag. If disabled parking information is not obtained from the RFID tag for a predetermined time (e.g., 3 minutes), the control unit 110 controls the operation of the camera unit 130 to acquire an image of the vehicle located in the parking area have. Further, the control unit 110 may start the operation of the camera unit 130 to acquire an image of a vehicle located in the parking area while starting the operation of the RFID communication module.

In response to confirming that the vehicle located in the parking zone is in violation of the parking regulation of the disabled by the above-described operation, the control unit 110 transmits an identifier indicating the disabled parking violation to the server device managing the disabled parking, .

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, an image photographed through the camera section 130 may include an image or a moving picture format. The control unit 110 preferably controls the camera unit 130 to capture an image of an image format every predetermined time (e.g., three minutes). Here, the predetermined time reference for photographing the image in the image format can be variously set based on the regulations related to the disabled parking violation. For example, if the law on disabled parking violations stipulates that a vehicle is parked in a disabled parking zone for more than five minutes, the predetermined time reference may be set to three minutes.

In transmitting the image to the server device managing the parking of the disabled, the control unit 110 performs coding processing using a temporal / spatial difference between images to generate a resource (e.g., data Transmission amount, etc.) can be reduced.

The controller 110 confirms the violation of the parking regulation of the disabled person and, in response thereto, terminates the operation mode when the imaging of the disabled person is completed and the identifier indicating the parking violation of the disabled person.

2 is a flow chart showing a procedure of a parking interrupting method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The parking interrupting method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure can be performed by the parking interrupter described above.

The parking interrupter basically operates in the standby mode (S201) in order to minimize power consumption, and can switch to the operation mode when the sensor value is input from the proximity sensor.

Here, the standby mode may be an operation for confirming whether or not a signal is inputted from the proximity sensor, without performing a separate operation by the parking interrupter.

Further, the parking interrupter may generate a signal indicating that the parking interrupter is operating normally every predetermined time unit, and may transmit the generated signal to an external device (e.g., a server device or the like). At this time, the parking interrupter can provide the state of the power supply provided in the parking interrupter, that is, the state of the battery (e.g., remaining battery capacity, remaining battery usage time, etc.).

On the other hand, if the sensor value is input from the proximity sensor (S202-YES), the parking interrupter is switched to the operation mode (S203).

In step S204, the parking interrupter can check whether the vehicle located in the parking area violates the parking regulation related to the disabled. Specifically, the parking interrupter can use the photographed image to confirm whether or not the vehicle located in the parking zone is a registered vehicle for the disabled. For example, the parking interrupter can check whether there is an indication (e.g., a disabled parking permit) in the photographed image that identifies the disabled vehicle.

As another example, the parking interrupter transmits an image (or a vehicle identification number acquired from a photographed image) photographed by a server device that manages parking of a disabled person or a violation report server device that manages a parking violation, , And may receive the confirmation result from the server device managing the disabled parking or the violation report server device.

Although one embodiment of the present disclosure has illustrated that a vehicle located in a parking area violates a parking related disability legislation based on a photographed image, the present disclosure is not so limited. For example, the parking interrupter may check whether the vehicle is a disabled registered vehicle by using an RFID tag containing disabled parking information (e.g., an identifier indicating whether the vehicle is a disabled registered vehicle). That is, the parking interrupter may further include an RFID communication module capable of performing RFID communication, and can start the operation of the RFID communication module in the operation mode, and can confirm whether parking information for disabled persons is obtained from the RFID tag. If the disabled parking information is not obtained from the RFID tag for a predetermined time (e.g., 3 minutes), the parking interrupter can control the operation of the camera to acquire the image of the vehicle located in the parking area.

Next, in step S205, in response to confirming that the vehicle located in the parking area is in violation of the parking regulation of the disabled, the parking interrupter transmits an identifier indicating the disabled parking violation to the server device managing the parking of the disabled, .

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the image to be photographed may comprise an image or video format. The parking interrupter can control the camera so that an image in the image format can be photographed every predetermined time (for example, three minutes). Here, the predetermined time reference for photographing the image in the image format can be variously set based on the regulations related to the disabled parking violation. For example, if the law on disabled parking violations stipulates that a vehicle is parked in a disabled parking zone for more than five minutes, the predetermined time reference may be set to three minutes.

In addition, in step S205, when the parking interrupter transmits an image to the server device managing the parking of the disabled, the image is encoded using a temporal / spatial differential between the images, Eg, the amount of data transferred, etc.).

Next, the parking interrupter confirms the violation of the parking regulation of the disabled person and, in response thereto, terminates the operation mode and returns to the standby mode when the identifier indicating the disabled parking violation and the transmission of the photographed image are completed (S206).

3 is a diagram showing a configuration of a disabled parking intervention system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 3, the disabled parking control system may include a parking interrupter 310, a parking intervention server device 320, and a violation notification server device 330.

Since the parking interrupter 310 may correspond to the parking interrupter described above, refer to the description of the parking interrupter.

The parking interrupter 310 is a communication device that performs communication such as LPWAN (Low Power Wide Area Network), Internet of Things (IOT), NarrowBand IoT (NarrowBand IoT), MIoT (Mobile IOT), SIGFOX, LoRaWAN Wireless communication network 305 based on the wireless network. The parking interrupter 310, the parking interrupter server device 320 and the violation notification server device 330 can be connected through the wired / wireless communication network 305 and can transmit and receive data through TCP or UDP communication.

The parking interrupter server device 320 can receive data provided from the parking interrupter 310. [ In particular, the parking intervention server device 320 can detect an identification (e.g., a disabled parking permit) identifying the disabled vehicle from the data (e.g., image) provided from the parking interrupter 310 or can detect the vehicle identification number . Based on the detected information, the parking-restriction server device 320 can check whether the vehicle located in the parking zone has violated the parking regulation of the disabled person, and provide the checked result to the parking control device 310. [

The parking interrupter server device 320 receives data (e.g., image data) about the vehicle that violates the disabled parking regulations from the parking interrupter 310 and can store the data.

The parking enforcement server apparatus 320 transmits information (e.g., vehicle identification number) about the vehicle that violated the disabled parking regulation regulations and data (e.g., image data) corresponding to the vehicle that violated the disabled parking regulation to the abuse report server apparatus 330).

The violation notification server device 330 is a server device that automatically receives information on a vehicle that violates the parking regulation of a disabled person based on data provided from the parking control server device 320 or the like and stores and manages related data . For example, the violation report server device 330 may receive a notification message generated according to a predetermined rule from the parking restriction server device 320. [ The violation report server device 330 can confirm the report message, classify the information included in the report message, and store the classified information in a predetermined area. The notification message may include information indicating a violation of a law, information on a vehicle that violates the law, and information proving a violation of the law. Herein, the information indicating the infringing regulation may include an identifier indicating the regulation (for example, a discrimination violation identifier, a parking violation identifier for a disabled person, a signal violation identifier, etc.) And the information proving the violation of the rule may include the violation time and the photographed image.

The violation notification server device 330 may include a database for managing a disabled person's vehicle. The violation notification server device 330 may check the vehicle identification number provided from the parking interrupter 310 or the parking restriction server device 320, It may be checked whether the vehicle is registered as a disabled vehicle and the result thereof may be provided.

4 is a signal flow diagram illustrating the operational sequence of a disabled parking intervention system in accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 4, the parking interrupter 310 may be basically operated in a standby mode in order to minimize power consumption (S401). Here, the standby mode may be an operation for checking whether the parking interrupter 310 does not perform a separate operation and a signal is input from the proximity sensor.

The parking interrupter 310 generates a signal indicating that it is normally operating at predetermined time intervals and transmits a state information message including the generated signal to the parking interrupter server device 320 that manages parking interrupts (S402). In addition, the parking interrupter 310 may transmit a power status information message including the power status of the apparatus, i.e., the status of the battery (e.g., remaining battery level, battery remaining time, etc.) (S403).

Although steps S402 and S403 illustrate that the parking interrupter 310 itself transmits a message containing the corresponding data to the parking control server device 320 every predetermined time unit, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, . For example, the parking control server apparatus 320 transmits a message requesting status information to the parking interrupter 310 every predetermined time unit or in response to a request from the manager, and the parking interrupter 310 It is possible to confirm and transmit the corresponding information. The steps S402 and S403 may be processed or omitted at the request of the manager managing the parking interrupter 310 or the parking interrupter server device 320. [

Meanwhile, the parking interrupter 310 can be switched to the operation mode when the sensor value is input from the proximity sensor (S404).

Next, in step S405, the parking interrupter 310 can start photographing the area of the vehicle located in the parking zone.

In step S406, the parking interrupter 310 can confirm whether or not the parking regulation of the disabled is violated. For example, the parking interrupter 310 may detect an indication (e.g., a disabled parking permit) that identifies a disabled vehicle in the video. And, if an indication (e.g., a disabled parking permit) for identifying a disabled person in the photographed image is not detected, it can be determined that the vehicle in the parking space is in violation of the disabled parking regulation.

Accordingly, the parking breaker 310 can generate information that verifies the violation of the regulation (S407). For example, the information that proves a violation of a regulation may include information about the time the vehicle violates the regulation (such as the time of entry, the time of stopping, etc.) in the parking zone, and the captured image.

In step S408, the parking interrupter 310 may provide a violation registration message including information for verifying the violation of the regulation to the parking restriction server device 320. [

In response to this, the parking regulatory server apparatus 320 confirms the violation registration message, stores the information for verifying the violation of the regulations, and then stores information indicating the violation of the regulations, information about the violation of the regulations, (S409). The violation notification server apparatus 330 confirms the notification message, classifies the information included in the notification message, and transmits the notification message to the violation notification server apparatus 330 And can be stored in a predetermined area. The notification message may include information indicating a violation of a law, information on a vehicle that violates the law, and information proving a violation of the law. Herein, the information indicating the infringing regulation may include an identifier indicating the regulation (for example, a discrimination violation identifier, a parking violation identifier for a disabled person, a signal violation identifier, etc.) And the information proving the violation of the rule may include the violation time and the photographed image.

Furthermore, the violation notification server device 330 processes the decision on violation of the law based on the information included in the notification message, generates a notification result message including the result, and provides the notification result message to the parking restriction server device 320 (S410).

Although it has been illustrated in the step S406 of the embodiment of the present disclosure that the parking interrupter 310 detects an indication of identification of a disabled vehicle (e.g., a disabled parking permit) from the photographed image to confirm the violation of the disabled parking regulation, The present invention is not limited thereto and can be variously changed. For example, in the operation of confirming the violation of the disabled parking regulation, the parking interrupter 310 can perform RFID communication, obtain the disabled parking information from the RFID tag, and check whether the disabled parking regulation is violated.

As another example, the parking interrupter server device 320 receives the violation confirmation request message from the parking interrupter 310, analyzes corresponding data of the photographed image, and displays an indication , A parking permit for a disabled person), or can detect the vehicle identification number. At this time, if an indication for identifying the disabled vehicle is not detected, the parking enforcement server device 320 detects the vehicle identification number and transmits the detected vehicle identification number to the reporting server device 330 so that the vehicle is registered as a disabled vehicle You can check if it is a vehicle. If the indication of the disabled person is not detected and the response received from the violation reporting server device 330 is not a disabled vehicle, the parking restriction server device 320 may determine that the vehicle is in violation of the disabled parking regulation. The parking enforcement server apparatus 320 can generate a violation acknowledgment message including the confirmed result and transmit it to the parking interrupter 310. [ At this time, the messages transmitted and received between the parking interrupter 310 and the parking lot server apparatus 320 may be transmitted to a low power wide area network (LPWAN), Internet of Things (IOT), Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) ), SIGFOX, LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network), or the like.

The parking interrupter interlocking unit 501 processes data transmission / reception with the parking interrupter, and the violation notification server interlock unit 502 can process data transmission / reception with the violation notification server unit.

For example, the parking interrupter interlocking unit 501 may check data included in a message (e.g., a status information message, a power status information message, etc.) received from the parking interrupter and transmit the data to the data processing unit 503. The violation notification server interworking unit 502 checks the data included in the message received from the violation notification server apparatus (e.g., a report result message) and transfers the data to the data processing unit 503 or provides the data from the data processing unit 503 (E.g., a notification message) including data to be transmitted to the violation notification server device.

The data processing section 503 can process data received from the parking interrupter or the violation notification server device to handle the operation of interrupting the parking violation against the vehicle and the operation of managing the parking interrupter.

Specifically, the data processing unit 503 can check the state information of the parking interrupter and the power state information, and store it in the data storage unit 506. The state information of the parking interrupter and the power state information stored in the data storage unit 506 may be illustrated as shown in FIG. 6A, and may include a device identifier, an installation location, an operator name, an operator telephone number, Can be stored. Here, the device identifier may be a number or name assigned to identify the parking interrupter.

[0050] FIG. The information for verifying the regulation violation stored in the data storage unit 506 can be illustrated as shown in FIG. 6B, and information such as a device identifier, a report transaction number, a photo file name, a video file name, . Here, the declared transaction number may be an identification number assigned whenever a report is received at the parking interrupter, and a plurality of images or a single moving image may be matched to the declared transaction number. The name of the picture file is the file name of the picture related to the declaration, and the name of the moving picture file is the name of the moving picture file related to the declaration. The photographing time means the time when the parking interrupter captures the corresponding image, and may be information generated by the parking interrupter. The reception time means the time when the video is received from the parking interrupter and can be generated by the parking interrupter server.

The data processing unit 503 can generate information for verifying the violation of the regulation and an identifier for requesting the notification to transmit the notification to the violation notification server unit through the violation notification server interlock unit 502, As shown in FIG. The report result stored in the data storage unit 506 can be illustrated as shown in FIG. 6C. Furthermore, the report result may include a determination result of a violation of a regulation received from the violation report server device 330. [

The parking brake interrupter management unit 505 may provide a user interface (e.g., a GUI) that provides information on the parking interrupter so that the parking interrupter can be managed.

The user interface may include a display window for confirming the general status (identification number, installation location, installation operator information, etc.) of the parking interrupter, status information, power status information, data log, and the like. In addition, the user interface may include a control window for remotely setting the environment of the parking interrupter.

For example, the control window can set the environment of the parking interrupter exemplified below.

- Parking allowance time (time to start shooting of the vehicle located in the parking area)

- Recording interval (eg, recording in seconds, recording in 1 minute)

- Maximum number of pictures taken

- Video shooting mode (picture shooting mode, movie shooting mode)

- Photo transmission method (coded transmission, uncoded transmission)

- Status information transmission cycle

- Power state information transmission period

On the other hand, since the parking interrupter has a communication section capable of low-power wireless communication and a small-sized power source section, connection of a commercial power source is not required. Therefore, the parking interrupter can be attached or mounted on a parking guide sign or a disabled parking sign.

According to the present disclosure described above, the parking lot management authority does not need to physically construct an illegal parking enforcement system in the parking lot, but merely sets up a parking guide sign provided with the parking interrupter proposed by the present disclosure or a disabled parking sign, By simply putting it, you can manage the vehicles that are parked illegally in the disabled parking area. The parking interrupter operates as a battery and is automatically connected to an external parking interrupter system through a mobile communication network, so that it can be used instantly without restriction of position and without installation process.
