Description

Mobile high pass system using smart terminal and ODF terminal

The present invention relates to a high-pass system, and more particularly, after recognizing the location of the smart terminal identified using the LBS and the geomagnetic sensor as the location of the vehicle, the location information of the highway toll gate registered in advance with such location information. After calculating the actual moving distance of the vehicle in the smart terminal receiving the distance value from the OBD terminal equipped with the vehicle to determine whether to enter or exit the highway and automatically collect the tolls In addition, the present invention relates to a mobile high pass system using a smart terminal and an OBD terminal, which allow automatic charging by calculating a highway toll based on the actual moving distance.

In recent years, the high-pass system, which has been increasingly used for rapid entry and exit of a highway toll gate, has a separate high-pass terminal installed in a vehicle and a high-pass terminal installed in a high-pass lane to communicate with the high-pass terminal on a wireless communication network. It is generally composed of a system that recognizes the entrance and exit of the highway.

Accordingly, in order to use the high pass system, a high pass terminal capable of wireless communication with a system provided in the high pass dedicated lanes had to be installed. Therefore, a driver who does not use the high pass system frequently should purchase a high pass terminal. There was a problem that can not be easily used due to the burden on the cost.

In addition, in case of using such a conventional high pass system, a prepaid card or a credit card is required to perform toll payment separately from a high pass terminal capable of IR or RF communication with a system installed in a high pass dedicated lane. In the case of using a credit card, there are a lot of troublesome problems such as registering a card with a separate IC chip from a banking institution and registering it with a high pass terminal.

In addition, the high pass terminal provided inside the vehicle for toll collection is generally installed on the windshield (windshield) of the vehicle for smooth IR or RF communication with the system installed in the high pass lane. In the case of heavy sunt on the glass, there is often a problem that a communication error is not achieved smoothly and a recognition error occurs.

In addition, the high-pass terminal installed in the windshield of the vehicle was exposed to all the shocks and temperature changes received during operation for a long time, so it frequently occurs easily after a certain period of time. However, these frequent breakdowns caused many inconveniences such as frequent repairs or replacements.

Accordingly, while enjoying the convenience of the high-pass system itself, there is a greater demand for a new high-pass system that can minimize the inconvenience caused by the purchase and installation of a separate terminal.

In response to this request, technologies that allow to enter and exit the highway toll gate using a mobile phone such as a smartphone instead of a high-pass terminal have been proposed through Korea Open Utility Model No. 20-2012-0005520, and at LG Uplus, A service that allows payment of tolls using a smartphone equipped with a SIM chip with a pass function has been implemented.

However, the service proposed by the Korean Republic of Korea Utility Model No. 20-2012-0005520 or LG Uplus does not process tolls while driving at a constant speed as in the case of using a conventional high pass terminal, but is provided at a toll gate Since the smartphone had to be contacted with a separate terminal, the convenience of using a high pass terminal was inevitably greatly reduced.

Therefore, it is a hassle to purchase or install a separate high-pass terminal while maintaining the advantages of the high-pass system, which allows the toll gate to be settled without stopping the vehicle as if driving in the toll gate. There is still a request for a new type of highpass system that can eliminate the burden.

In addition, it is possible to calculate highway tolls by using smart terminals without purchasing a separate high pass terminal, and to calculate the highway tolls based on the actual distance of the vehicle, thereby improving the reliability of toll collection. The request for a new type of high-pass system will still remain.

The present invention recognizes the location of the smart terminal using the LBS and the geomagnetic sensor as the location of the vehicle, and compares the location information with the location information of the pre-registered toll gate to determine whether to enter or leave the highway. In addition, the toll can be automatically collected and the smart terminal receiving the distance value transmitted from the OBD terminal provided in the vehicle calculates the actual distance of the vehicle and then calculates the highway toll based on the actual distance. Another object of the present invention is to provide a mobile high pass system using a smart terminal and an OBD terminal that enable automatic charging.

Mobile high pass system using a smart terminal and OBD terminal for solving the above problems,

After recognizing the location information identified by LBS (Location based Service) and geomagnetic sensor as the location information of the vehicle, the location information is compared with the location information on the recognition area of the highway toll gate which is set in advance. In addition to determining whether or not, the high pass app (APP) for controlling the automatic charging of the highway toll by calculating the actual moving distance of the vehicle after entering the highway based on the driving distance value of the vehicle transmitted from the OBD terminal provided in the vehicle Is installed smart terminal; An OBD terminal connected to the ECU of the vehicle so as to obtain driving information of the vehicle and electrically connected to the smart terminal for transmitting a driving distance value of the vehicle on a communication network; A traffic toll on the highway toll calculated based on the actual travel distance of the vehicle from entering the highway toll gate calculated by the mileage value of the vehicle transmitted from the OBD terminal to entering another toll gate by a predetermined payment means Toll server; And a vehicle registered in advance after confirming the vehicle entering the recognition area of the highway toll gate, and when the high pass app is activated and it is determined that the vehicle has received the toll gate entry information, the vehicle passes the toll without having to collect the toll. It characterized in that it comprises a high pass server that allows.

1 to 3, a mobile high pass system using a smart terminal and an OBD terminal according to the present invention recognizes location information obtained by using a location based service (LBS) and a geomagnetic sensor as position information of a vehicle. Then, the location information is compared with the location information on the recognition area of the highway toll gate, which is set in advance, to determine whether the vehicle enters and exits the highway, and is based on the driving distance value of the vehicle transmitted from the OBD terminal provided in the vehicle. After entering, the smart terminal 100 is installed with a high pass app (APP) which controls the automatic charging of highway tolls by calculating the actual travel distance of the vehicle, and is connected to the ECU of the vehicle so as to obtain driving information of the vehicle. It is electrically connected to the smart terminal to transmit the mileage value of the vehicle on the communication network. Expressway tolls calculated based on the actual distance traveled by the OBD terminal 500 connected to the toll gate after entering the toll gate to enter another toll gate based on the driving distance value of the vehicle transmitted from the OBD terminal After confirming the toll server 200 to settle by a predetermined payment means and the vehicle entered on the recognition area of the expressway toll gate, the high-pass app (APP) is activated as a pre-registered vehicle, and the tollgate entry information is received. If it is determined that the vehicle is configured to include a high pass server 300 that allows the passage without the on-site collection of tolls.

In this case, the smart terminal 100 is easy to carry, is capable of transmitting and receiving data through a wireless communication network, and is equipped with a main processor and an operating system for installation and execution of application programs such as a high-pass app (APP) It consists of a smartphone or tablet PC.

As such, after downloading and installing the high pass app (APP) on the smart terminal 100 that is easy to carry and transmits and receives data, the vehicle is configured to specify and register a vehicle to use the high pass service.

As such, the smart terminal 100 in which the high pass app APP is installed, as shown in FIG. 3, limits the vehicle to which the highway toll payment is possible using the high pass app APP to the high pass server. Recognizing the position of the smart terminal and the vehicle registration unit 110 to register in advance, the toll gate registration unit 120 to register the position information of the highway toll gate that can enter the vehicle to be compared with the location information of the smart terminal, After that, the vehicle position comparison unit 130 determines whether the highway toll gate is entered or exited by comparing the position of the vehicle with the position information of the highway toll gate, and recognizes a predetermined range in which the vehicle position is registered as the position information of the highway toll gate. If it is determined that it is in the area, it starts to receive the mileage value of the vehicle from the OBD terminal and The OBD linkage unit 140 calculates the actual distance traveled by the vehicle after entering the highway by calculating the travel distance value until the position is within the recognition area registered as the position information of the toll gate. It comprises a toll billing unit 150 for requesting the toll server to automatically charge the highway toll calculated based on the actual travel distance of the vehicle.

At this time, the vehicle registration unit 110, by using a high-pass app (APP) installed in the smart terminal 100 to limit the vehicle that can be paid for tolls, such as expressways in advance, by using a vehicle of another person Even if you enter the highway by using other means of transportation, such as express buses do not need to pay tolls, the high pass app (APP) installed in the smart terminal is activated to avoid being charged tolls.

In this case, as shown in FIG. 4, in order to register a vehicle to pay a toll using a high pass app (APP) installed in the smart terminal 100, first, the high pass server 300 is recognized as an image. High Pass as driver information to register the vehicle number and model so as to identify whether the vehicle entering the toll gate is a vehicle registered in the user's High Pass app by the vehicle number, and to charge the highway toll. The driver's license and the vehicle registration card of the user who installed the app (APP) is preferably configured to register together.

As such, vehicle information registered using the high pass app (APP) installed in the smart terminal 100 is stored in a database provided in the high pass server 300, and the vehicle recognition means 400 installed in the toll gate later. The high-pass server 300 receiving the information such as the vehicle number and the model transmitted from the can be used as data to determine whether to charge the toll to the smart terminal user.

In addition, the vehicle position comparison unit 130, when the vehicle registered to pay the toll using the high pass app (APP) installed in the smart terminal 100 enters through the highway toll gate, the smart terminal 100 It is configured to determine the location information of the smart terminal grasped by the geomagnetic sensor and the LBS system provided as the location information of the vehicle.

As such, when the location information of the vehicle is accurately determined by the location information of the smart terminal, the vehicle location comparison unit 130 stores the location information of the vehicle in the smart terminal 100 and at the same time, the high pass server through a wireless communication network. Configured to transmit to 300.

At this time, in order to identify the vehicle and the user to which the location information is transmitted, the user information consisting of the unique number of the smart terminal or the user's unique number set at the time of installing the high pass app (APP) and the like to transmit the location information together with the location information. It is preferred to be configured.

Thereafter, the vehicle position comparison unit 130 continuously compares the position information of the vehicle identified by the smart terminal with the position information of the toll gate which can be advanced, and determines whether to enter the highway. As the vehicle enters through the highway toll gate, when the location information of the vehicle coincides with the location information of the highway toll gate within a predetermined range, the driving between the two highway toll gates and the OBD terminal 500 are transmitted. Preferably, the toll is calculated and imposed based on the actual travel distance calculated based on the distance value.

In this case, the location information of the vehicle may be determined by the geomagnetic sensor and the LBS system provided in the smart terminal 100, and the location information of the vehicle may be determined by the geomagnetic sensor and the conventional GPS system. Of course you can.

At this time, the vehicle recognition means 400 provided in the highway toll gate obtains a front image of the vehicle entering the toll gate, derives a vehicle number, and transmits the vehicle number to the high pass server 300, thereby providing a smart terminal in the high pass server. It is possible to determine whether the vehicle entering the toll gate determined by the location information transmitted from the vehicle is registered to use the high pass service.

Accordingly, if it is determined that the vehicle entering the toll gate is a vehicle registered to use the high pass service, the high pass service of the user is kept active until it exits the highway, and it is determined that the vehicle is not a registered vehicle. In this case, the high pass service of the user can be deactivated to prevent unnecessary toll charges.

In addition, the OBD interworking unit 140 is connected to receive a travel distance value from the OBD terminal 500, and after entering the highway by the travel distance value transmitted from the OBD terminal 500. It calculates the actual distance traveled until it exits the highway so that it can be used as data for calculating highway tolls.

To this end, the OBD interworking unit 140 determines that the location information of the vehicle determined by the location information of the smart terminal 100 is in a recognition area around the highway toll gate registered by the toll gate registration unit 120 in advance. If it is configured to start receiving the travel distance value from the OBD terminal 500, while driving the highway from the OBD terminal 500 until it is determined that the location information of the vehicle in the recognition area around the other highway toll gate It is configured to calculate the actual distance traveled on the highway from the moment of entering the highway to the departure by calculating the received driving distance value.

At this time, the OBD interworking unit 140 is configured to stop receiving the mileage value from the OBD terminal when it is determined that the mileage value is started from the OBD terminal but the subsequent route is not the highway. When it is determined that the path is still a highway even though it is determined to be in a recognition area around the highway toll gate, it is preferable that the driving distance value from the OBD terminal can be continuously received.

As such, whether or not the distance value from the OBD terminal 500 is automatically received and completed based on the position information and the recognition area of the highway toll gate registered in advance in the toll gate registration unit 120, the actual distance It is possible to charge highway tolls based on

In addition, the toll server 200, if the vehicle registered to use the high-pass service is recognized as passing through the highway toll gate is provided with a payment means for paying a toll to the installer of the corresponding high-pass app (APP) Configured servers.

To this end, a user who has installed the high pass app (APP) on the smart terminal 100 accesses the toll server 200 in advance through a wireless communication network, and then sets and registers a payment means for performing a toll payment. It is composed.

Accordingly, when the user of the smart terminal 100 has a credit card or a check card selected in advance to pay the highway toll, when the toll to be paid is generated, the toll server 200 sends the toll to the financial company. If the smart terminal 100 user requests to add the highway toll to the smart terminal usage fee, the toll server 200 requests the payment of the toll from the telecommunications company to process the payment. do.

The user of the smart terminal 100 having the high pass app (APP) installed in this way sets a payment method or a payment method in advance and registers it in the toll server 200, thereby providing location information of the smart terminal and the OBD terminal. When the toll is to be charged based on the actual travel distance calculated by the OBD linker 140 based on the traveling distance value transmitted from the 500, the high pass server interworking with the toll server 200 ( In 300, the payment of the tolls is requested, and the payment can be automatically processed by the payment method set in advance by the user.

To this end, the vehicle information is registered in the high pass server 300 using the smart terminal 100 in which the high pass app is installed, and the payment information related to the payment method is registered in the toll server 200. After setting, the high pass server 300 and the toll server 200 should be stored as final high pass service usage information by checking whether data is compatible with each other and matching.

In addition, the high-pass server 300 is connected to the vehicle recognition means 400 installed in each highway toll gate so as to take a picture for identifying the vehicle entering the highway on a wired or wireless communication network from the vehicle recognition means 400 And receiving the vehicle number to determine whether the vehicle is registered to use the high pass service.

At this time, in order to be able to process a lot of data transmitted from the vehicle recognition means 400 in real time, based on the location information and the user information of the vehicle transmitted from the activated high-pass app (APP) while entering the highway toll gate After activating the vehicle information registered as the user information in advance, it is preferably configured to determine whether the vehicle number derived by the data transmitted from the vehicle recognition means 400 is activated.

The high pass server 300 calculates toll charges when the vehicle information acquired by using the vehicle recognition means matches the vehicle information previously activated by the activated high pass app (APP) while entering the toll gate. If it is confirmed that the vehicle has been activated and subsequently entered through another highway toll gate, the toll is calculated based on the distance between the two toll gates, or the toll is calculated based on the actual travel distance calculated by the OBD linkage. By requesting the payment to the server 200 to implement a high-pass service.

As the location information of the vehicle is continuously managed by the high pass app (APP) installed in the smart terminal, the entry and exit of the highway toll gate can be grasped, and thus, the expensive high pass terminal is not used. High-pass services can be implemented without building a dedicated lane.

In addition, after installing the high pass app (APP) on the smart terminal, enter a brief vehicle information, such as the vehicle number and model to use the high pass service, select a conventional credit card or check card as a payment method or smart terminal You can easily use the Hi-Pass service simply by selecting the total price.
