Abstract

The invention relates to the field of intelligent transportation, and discloses a positioning device and a method for an on-board unit (OBU) in an electronic toll collection (ETC) system. The positioning device and the method can be used for accurately positioning the OBU. The positioning device comprises at least two antennae, at lest two receiving modules and a data processing module, wherein the two antennae are used for receiving microwave signals sent by the on-board unit respectively; each one of the receiving modules is connected with one antenna respectively, and is used for acquiringthe power strength value of the microwave signal according to the microwave signal received by the connected antenna; and the data processing module is connected with each receiving module, and is used for determining position information of the on-board unit according to the power strength values of the microwave signals received by the at least two antennae in all antennae and the position information of the at least two antennae.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of intelligent transportation, in particular to a positioning device and method for a vehicle-mounted unit in an ETC system. Background technique [0002] With the development of the economy, the number of urban vehicles has increased, and the traffic volume on the road has increased significantly, while the expressway toll stations often become traffic jams. At present, the Electronic Toll Collection System (ETC system) adopted in China can accelerate the speed of vehicles to a certain extent and relieve traffic pressure. However, this scheme uses single-lane traffic with lane railings, and the speed of vehicles is not high. Since toll booths are still required, the construction and land occupation costs are relatively high. [0003] The Multi Lane Free Flow (MLFF) tolling technology does not require lane railings, does not restrict lanes, and the vehicle speed can reach the normal speed of the expressway, which is ...
