System and method for inducing vehicles to orderly enter toll station

Abstract

The invention discloses a system and method for inducing vehicles to orderly enter a toll station, wherein the system comprises a vehicle detector, a traffic guidance screen and a calculation module;the vehicle detector is used for detecting the arrival condition of the vehicles in a toll collection square, and collecting the vehicle detection data of each toll collection channel; the traffic guidance screen is used for displaying the toll collection condition information of the toll collection channels so as to guide the vehicles to orderly enter the toll station; and the calculation moduleis used for counting the number of queuing vehicles in each toll collection channel according to the vehicle detection data, obtaining toll collection data, calculating estimated service time of eachtoll collection channel according to the toll collection data, and generating toll collection condition information according to the number of queuing vehicles and the service time. The traffic guidance screen is mounted on the traffic lane to publish queuing length, service time and other information of each channel in advance, a driver is guided to reasonably select a toll collection channel andchange lanes in advance before entering the toll station, the problems of highway toll collection square congestion, frequent traffic flow interleaving and the like are solved, and the method can bewidely applied to the field of traffic management and control.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of traffic management and control, in particular to a system and method for inducing vehicles to enter toll stations in an orderly manner. Background technique [0002] As the main artery of economic development, expressway is a powerful guarantee for economic development, while toll stations, as an indispensable accessory facility of expressway, play an irreplaceable role. At the same time, expressway toll stations are also the bottleneck of expressway traffic flow, which directly affects the traffic capacity of road sections and even the entire road network. [0003] From 2019, my country will gradually cancel the toll stations at provincial borders on expressways, and accelerate the promotion and application of electronic non-stop quick toll collection. At present, more than 90% of the toll channels in each toll station are ETC channels, and only 1 to 2 mixed channels or MTC channels are reserved for vehicles that...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Since there is no fixed principle for the location arrangement of ETC and MTC channels, that is, there are significant differences in the arrangement and combination of channels of different toll stations, and the location distribution of toll stations is not the same as when they were not rebuilt, resulting in many vehicles without ETC cards installed wrongly. Entering the ETC passage creates a difficult situation, which affects the passage of subsequent vehicles; in addition, the number of toll passages is usually greater than the number of driving lanes, and there is a one-to-many relationship between driving lanes and toll passages, which leads to vehicles entering the toll plaza. There will be shunting, merging and interweaving. The interweaving of traffic will greatly affect the driving efficiency and increase the probability of congestion. At the same time, the reliability of the ETC channel is affected by the failure rate of the machine. Once the ETC channel fails, the fleet of this channel can only wait or pass. Changing lanes into other passages not only greatly increases the number of traffic weaves in the toll plaza, but also increases queuing and delays

[0004] In the context of accelerating the promotion of ETC application services, the problem of expressway toll station congestion and traffic interweaving is becoming more and more serious, affecting the overall service quality and service level of the expressway, which in turn puts pressure on the normal operation of the entire expressway network
