Embodiment Construction

[0034] FIG. 3 is an embodiment of the level system proposed by the present invention. In the checkpoint 300, a roadside antenna 101 and a car sensor 320 are installed on the upper part or both sides of the checkpoint area, and other components are the same as those shown in FIG. 2 . Install multiple of these levels in the level area.

[0035] FIG. 1 shows the structure of a fee collection system according to an embodiment of the present invention. This fee collection system is provided with the following devices: a roadside communication antenna 21 composed of an antenna unit 101 and a directional controller 111 for controlling its directional pattern; The communication controller 25 of the necessary information about payment; One detects the automobile sensor 320 that automobile enters checkpoint; One judges the automobile data detector 130 of detected automobile position and outline; An electromagnetic wave path judging part 150, can be in antenna unit 101 and Select an el...

Abstract

An electronic toll collection system (ETCS) for use in a tollgate for charging a car without the need for the car to stop, in which communication failures or errors due to reflected waves from a structure or a passing car are prevented. A roadside communication antenna which communicates with a vehicle-mounted communication antenna for charging, and a car sensor which detects a car (cars) in an area wider than a designed communication area are installed at the tollgate. As an electromagnetic wave path judgment section obtains data on the profile and position of a car which has entered the tollgate, from a car data detector, it calculates electromagnetic wave paths of direct and reflected waves which connect the roadside communication antenna 21 and the vehicle-mounted antenna in each of the cars, and calculates the receiving electric field strength for each of the paths.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electronic fee collection system based on the wireless communication of checkpoints, in particular to a communication method suitable for checkpoints in a wireless environment. Background technique [0002] An Electronic Toll Collection System (ETCS) is an electronic system that enables drivers to receive tickets or pay tolls without stopping at checkpoints on toll roads, such as highways. [0003] Figures 2A and 2B show a schematic diagram of a level using an ETCS. Fig. 2A is a perspective view, and Fig. 2B is a top view. The checkpoint 300 is separated from the adjacent passage area by a safety island 311 . A roadside communication antenna 21 is installed on the checkpoint 300 . When the car 31 with the vehicle-mounted communication antenna enters the designed communication area 350, the information required for payment is exchanged through wireless signals between the roadside communication antenna 21 and the vehicle-m...
