[Embodiment] The technical contents and effects of the present invention will be described in detail in the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the preferred embodiment of the roadside parking charging system of the present invention is applicable to a road area 1 in which a plurality of parking spaces 11 are provided for a plurality of vehicles 2 to stop. The system mainly includes: A radio frequency identification tag (RFID tag) 3, a reader 4 and a word 1342525 server 5 of each vehicle 2. In this example, the radio frequency identification standard 3 is in a '------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The unit 31, a demodulation/modulation unit 32, the control unit 433, a memory unit 34, and a power supply unit 35. Here, the entity type of the radio frequency identification tag 3 is not limited. A "tag" or the card shape in this case is not limited to be independent, but may be integrated into the electronic circuit of the car or other suitable changes. The antenna unit 31 is configured to receive the electromagnetic wave signal from the reader 4 and reversely transmit the signal generated by the tag 3 itself for reception by the reader 4. The circuit of the demodulation/modulation unit 32 is connected to the antenna unit 31, on the one hand, demodulating the signal from the antenna unit 31 to obtain the information content thereof, and on the other hand, is to be transmitted to the reader 4. The information is modulated (m〇dulati〇n) to generate an appropriate signal for transmission by the antenna unit 31. The circuit of the control unit 33 is connected to the demodulation/modulation unit 32, and mainly controls the other components to respond to the appropriate signals to the reader 4 after the information obtained by the demodulation/modulation unit 32 is demodulated and confirmed. Details are detailed later. . The memory unit 34 is a rewritable memory, such as a flash memory, and the stored data mainly includes a verification information, identification information of the vehicle 2, and a stored value amount. News. The verification information is used to receive the inquiry signal sent from the reader 4 at the end of the tag 3, and then the control unit 33 performs verification. After the verification, the tag 3 starts to send a response signal, otherwise it does not operate. In this example, the vehicle identification information is the license plate number of the vehicle 2, and when the user (driver) obtains the label 3, the storage is 7 1342525. However, in other applications, the identification information may be other enough to identify the vehicle. 2. Appropriate information about the owner, driver or other identity of the vehicle 2, such as the driver's identity card number. The stored value information is similar to the current MRT card stored value method. Users can add the value of the tag 3 through the automatic value added machine installed in the MRT station and the parking lot to supplement the increase in the stored value, relative to the wheel 2 After the return parking is automatically debited, the amount of the stored value will decrease. Since this value-added and deductible function has been found in many current stored value cards and wafer card products, the details of its operation are not described in detail. Of course, the memory unit 34 can also perform other configuration changes, such as storing a fixed vehicle identification information in a memory that cannot be repeatedly written, such as a random access memory (RAM), and the variable stored value information is stored in The above-mentioned rewritable memory can speed up the recognition information from the speed at which the memory cannot be repeatedly written into the memory. The power supply unit 35 mainly includes a battery for providing power required for the overall operation of the tag 3, that is, the tag 3 is a known active RFID tag. The battery can be a fUm_shaped lithium ion battery, a fUm_shaped lithium ion polymer battery, a nickel hydrogen battery, an organic radical battery, or an organic radical battery. , biofuel battery or other suitable form can be used with solar cells to supplement its power. The reader 4 is disposed at a proper location in the road area. In this example, the road area 1 is a road with a plurality of parking spaces, and the reader 4 is disposed at a side of the road near the midpoint, in other words, The reader 4 is responsible for the parking charging mechanism of the vehicle 2 in all parking spaces 11 within the road. In other variation orders 8, it is also possible to adjust the range of the receiver 4 and the money 3 signal transmission and reception, the road and the parking area, such as setting a reader 4 on two roads, in a square area. A reader 4 and the like are provided inside. The reader 4 mainly includes an antenna unit 4, a demodulation/modulation unit, a control unit 43, a memory unit 44, and a network interface unit 45. The antenna unit 41 is used to the road area! Each tag 3 transmits an electromagnetic wave signal 'and reversely receives the signal transmitted by the tag 3 to transmit back. The circuit of the demodulation/modulation unit is connected to the antenna unit 41, and the information to be transmitted to the tag 3 is modulated, modulated, and the appropriate signal is transmitted by the antenna unit 41, and the signal from the tag 3 is demodulated. To get the information in it. The circuit of the control unit 43 is connected to the demodulation/modulation unit 42 to memorize...the information is transmitted through the demodulation/modulation...the remote control unit: the radio signal is received by each of the labels 3 or the reverse control is received from each of the labels 3 The information is stored in the memory unit 44', which is particularly relevant to the present case. The control unit is used to execute the program stored in the memory unit 44, so that the reader 4 generates corresponding actions, and the details thereof are detailed later. The memory unit 44 is exemplified by a rewritable memory, such as a flash memory, and the stored data mainly includes verification information for transmitting to each of the tags 3 for verification and verification, a charge management program, and a plurality of tags. 3 Received information. The purpose of the above verification information is that the reader 4 will continue to transmit the interrogation signal containing the verification information, and after receiving the tag 2 of the vehicle 2 entering the road area, the control unit 33 in the tag 3 will receive the verification. The information is compared with the verification information of the verification information. After the verification is passed, the tag 3 starts transmitting a response message (such as vehicle identification information) to the reader 4, otherwise the tag 3 will have no response action. & In this example, after the execution of the charge management program, the control unit 43 will continue to record the time when the vehicle identification information is read from the same sign 3, and when the reader 4 captures the same vehicle identification information for more than one When the time is set, the start 2 executes the charging mechanism corresponding to the vehicle 2 for the identification information. In this example, the expected time can be set to 1 minute. In other words, when the handle 2 enters the road area 1 for 10 minutes, it is considered that it stops at the parking space u in the area and starts charging for eight. In other applications, other preset criteria may also be adopted to determine whether to charge or not. For example, depending on the local traffic conditions, the preset time is flexibly adjusted according to the local traffic conditions, and the vehicle 2 in the area is mistaken for parking. Parking space 11 is charged. After the charging mechanism is started in this example, the control unit 43 converts the corresponding parking fee into a corresponding parking fee based on the time when the identification information is read from the same tag 3, for example, every half of the time & Each time up to a charging reference point (such as 0.5hr, Ihr, I.5hr..), the control unit 43 controls to transmit the corresponding V fare to the corresponding vehicle 2 tag 3, and other operations are detailed as follows. The interface unit 45 is used to exchange information with the remote server (serVer) 5 via the communication network 6. In this example, the communication network 6 is an internet, and the network interface unit 45 and the communication network 6 are connected in a wired manner. However, other suitable wired and wireless communication networks, such as grabbing and wiFi, may also be applicable. Since the hardware and software components required to connect to the network 6 are conventional, the details of the network interface section 45 are not described herein. 10 1342525 4 The remote servo II 5 also has a network interface unit 5 for exchanging information by connecting the communication interface y and the network interface 45 of the H 4 port. The remote server 5 mainly performs a notification replenishment operation after receiving the message from the reader 4, the details of which will be described later. Based on the above architecture, as shown in the flow circle of FIG. 3, the present invention also discloses a roadside parking charging method, the main implementation steps of which are as follows:

As shown in step 901, the reader 4 disposed in the road area j continues to issue the interrogation signal; as shown in step 902, when the vehicle 2 enters the road area i, the antenna portion 31 to which the label 3 is attached will receive the reading. The inquiry signal sent from the extractor 4 is verified by the control unit 33. As shown in step 903, after the verification, the control unit 33 controls the vehicle identification information stored in the memory unit 34 to be transmitted to the reading through the antenna unit 31. Device 4, the vehicle identification information in this example is the license plate number of the vehicle;

As shown in step 904, after the reader 4 receives the vehicle identification information from each of the vehicles 2, the control #43 will execute the charge management program in the memory unit 44, and the control records the vehicle identification information together with the reception time thereof in the memory. As shown in step 905, the control unit 43 will continue to read the vehicle identification information from the same standard 3, and when the debt is read 3 4, the same reading information has been exceeded for a preset time, for example, the i-th reading is performed. When the 5th reading has exceeded ι〇 minutes, the 'immediate step' step (such as (4)_ starts the charging mechanism for the wheel number corresponding to the license plate number. Conversely, if the reader 4 continues to read the same identification information does not exceed - The preset time, for example, the first (read to the last read 11 ψ take no more than 10 minutes), ie, step 9〇7 does not start the charging mechanism; _ as shown in step 9G8, after the charging mechanism is started, the control unit 43 According to the continuous reading time of the self-identification-vehicle identification information, the built-in charging formula 'converts to the corresponding parking fee; as shown in step 909, 'at each charging time reference point (10) such as: 1 hr 1. 5hr · ), the control unit 43 will control the vehicle Do not owned

The information and the amount of the parking fee are transmitted through the antenna unit 41 for receiving by the tag 3 of the corresponding vehicle 2; as shown in step 910, the tag 3 of the corresponding vehicle 2 receives the transmitter 4, the handle identification information and the parking fee amount. The control unit 33 also performs the test, for example, whether the vehicle identification information (ie, the license plate number horse) transmitted by the reader 4 matches the license plate number built in the heartbeat 3, and further performs the V fare after verification. The amount of the stored value deduction action stored in the memory unit 34;

As shown in step 911, when the stored value is lower than the parking fee amount and the deduction action cannot be completed, as shown in step 912, the control unit commits to transmit through the antenna 31 - including its vehicle identification information (ie, the license plate number). The uncompleted debit message of the parking fee amount is provided for the reader 4; otherwise, when the stored value is not lower than the parking fee amount, as shown in step 913, the control unit commits the amount of the parking fee to be deducted from the stored value. , the completion of the charge collection mechanism; as shown in steps 914, 815 'reader 4 receives the uncompleted deduction message transmitted by the tag 3', the vehicle identification information, the parking fee amount is transmitted to the remote server 5, the ship The device 5 can be connected to the other device that stores the name and address of the owner, and obtains the information of the vehicle, and then pays the mail to the owner by appropriate means such as printing an email or a mobile phone newsletter, or by 12 1342525 Notification of payment. It is specifically pointed out that in order to reduce the computational load, the operation of the charge management program in the memory unit 44 of the reader 4 in this example can also be performed by another server, the reader It is only controlled by the ship to transmit and read the wireless signal between the tag and the tag 3. In other words, the present invention makes it necessary for the functions of the components of the reader 4 to be in the same physical position or the same electronic protection, and is not the focus or limitation of the present invention.

Salary - two inventions, in addition to eliminating the employment of new hires by the new toll collectors 'Because - only the need to set - the reader 4 in the road area 1, you can enter the vehicle in the road area into the parking space u" For those who obviously save the reader 4, it does not need to be mostly == this; and the vehicle 2 can be driven to the entrance and exit to enter the second or second? For car applications, there is no need to suspend the car or get off the car to deduct the stored value card, so the parking charge line can be greatly improved.
