[0008] In another possible implementation, the traffic volume of Class 1 trucks and Class 2 trucks of toll-collecting vehicle types in the first traffic volume data is directly converted into the traffic volume of small trucks and medium trucks of the standard vehicle types for inter-modulation according to the division standard, including: drawing a total mass distribution curve of Class 1 trucks based on a long time series of highway entrance weighing data to obtain the quantity distribution of the total mass of Class 1 trucks at different tonnages; searching for the first peak of the probability distribution on the left side of the total mass distribution curve by constructing a sliding window, and the corresponding total mass is the average unloaded mass of Class 1 trucks; if within a long time series and a large sample range, the error in directly converting the traffic volume of Class 1 trucks into the traffic volume of small trucks for inter-modulation according to the division standard and the average unloaded mass does not exceed a first preset threshold, then the traffic volume of Class 1 trucks is directly converted into the traffic volume of small trucks of the standard vehicle types for inter-modulation; if within a long time series and a large sample range, the error in directly converting the traffic volume of Class 2 trucks into the traffic volume of medium trucks for inter-modulation according to the division standard and the average unloaded mass does not exceed a second preset threshold, then the traffic volume of Class 2 trucks is directly converted into the traffic volume of medium trucks of the standard vehicle types for inter-modulation.

[0009] In another possible implementation, the traffic volume of Class 1 trucks and Class 2 trucks of the toll model in the first traffic volume data is converted proportionally into the traffic volume of small trucks and medium trucks of the standard interchange model, including: obtaining historical data of continuous interchange stations on highways, and determining the ratio of medium and small truck traffic volumes on a route basis based on the historical data; and splitting the total traffic volume of Class 1 trucks and Class 2 trucks in the ETC gantry traffic data proportionally.

[0019] The technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0020] like Figure 1 The flowchart of a method for calculating the real-time traffic volume of a highway section based on an ETC gantry according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, and the method comprises: Step S11, obtaining the basic data of the road section of the expressway network to be calculated and the basic data of the ETC gantry, and determining the basic information of the ETC dispatch station based on the basic data of the road section and the basic data of the ETC gantry.

[0021] Optionally, obtain the basic data of the road section of the highway network to be calculated and the basic data of the ETC gantry, and set the basic information field of the ETC interchange station with reference to the basic information of the interchange station of the highway traffic situation survey system. Specifically refer to the basic information of the interchange station of the highway traffic situation survey system, and configure the basic information of the new interchange station based on the ETC gantry information and the information of the road section where it is located. The configured basic information fields of the ETC interchange station are shown in Table 1 below.

[0022] Table 1 ETC traffic station basic information field design table and description Then, according to the dynamic traffic index field of the existing traffic control station, the dynamic traffic index field of the ETC traffic control station is set. The set dynamic traffic index field of the ETC traffic control station is shown in Table 2.

[0023] Table 2 ETC traffic dispatch station dynamic traffic index field design and description table Step S12, obtaining the first traffic volume data of the toll vehicle type of the ETC exchange station in real time according to the basic information.

[0024] Optionally, the real-time traffic volume of each vehicle type at the ETC exchange station is calculated at a preset frequency through the dynamic traffic data of the ETC gantry, and the transaction flow data and license plate recognition data of the ETC gantry in the ETC toll collection system are obtained. The preset frequency is preferably 5 minutes, that is, statistics are counted every 5 minutes.

[0025] Then, the transaction flow data and license plate recognition data are deduplicated. The specific method of deduplication is as follows: if the gantry number and license plate of multiple data records are the same, and the time interval of passing through the ETC gantry is less than the preset interval, it is determined to be duplicate data; for multiple records determined to be duplicates, the record with the latest time is retained; if the time is the same, any record is retained and the rest are discarded; in the case where there are two ETC gantries in the same direction, the transaction flow data and license plate recognition data of the two ETC gantries are merged separately, and then the above deduplication processing is performed. The preset interval can be set as needed, preferably 1 minute.

[0026] For the deduplicated license plate recognition data, statistics are collected at a preset frequency based on the time when the vehicle passes through the ETC gantry to obtain the license plate recognition traffic volume. The license plate recognition traffic volume is the total traffic volume passing through the ETC gantry. For the deduplicated transaction flow data, statistics are collected at a preset frequency based on the time and vehicle type when the vehicle passes through the ETC gantry to obtain the transaction traffic volume by vehicle type. The transaction traffic volume includes the traffic volume of various vehicle types.

[0027] The combined statistics of license plate recognition traffic volume and vehicle type transaction traffic volume are used to obtain the first traffic volume data of the toll vehicle type at the ETC interchange station.

[0028] Step S13, converting the first traffic volume data into second traffic volume data of the traffic control standard vehicle type based on a preset classification standard, wherein the preset classification standard includes the classification standard of the toll vehicle type in the highway ETC toll collection system and the classification standard of the highway traffic control standard vehicle type.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present invention, according to the "Classification of Vehicle Types for Toll Road Vehicle Tolls" (JT / T489-2019), toll vehicles are specifically classified into three major categories: passenger cars, trucks, and special operation vehicles. Among them, passenger cars are divided into 4 categories according to the vehicle type and the approved number of passengers registered by the traffic management department; trucks are divided into 6 categories according to the total number of axles, vehicle length and maximum allowable total mass; the classification standard of special operation vehicles is similar to that of trucks, and is divided into 6 categories, mainly for cars equipped with special equipment or appliances, designed and manufactured for engineering special (including health and medical) operations. In the ETC gantry system, separate codes are given for different vehicle types, with four types of passenger cars coded as 14, six types of trucks coded as 1116, and six types of special operation vehicles coded as 2126. In addition, the vehicle classification is subdivided based on the toll truck model, and J1 type containers and J2 type containers are separately coded as 24 and 28.

[0030] According to the classification standards of standard vehicle types for highway traffic coordination, standard vehicle types for traffic coordination are divided into 7 categories according to the number of axles, vehicle length and rated load capacity. Among them, buses are divided into 2 categories: small and medium-sized buses and large buses. Trucks are divided into 5 categories: small trucks, medium trucks, large trucks, extra-large trucks and container trucks.

[0031] By comparing the two classification standards, we can get the correspondence between the standard models and the toll models. The correspondence table between the standard models and the toll models is shown in Table 3.

[0032] Table 3 Correspondence between standard models and toll models Among them, the five models of the cross-adjustment standard models, including small and medium-sized passenger cars, large passenger cars, large trucks, extra-large trucks, and containers, can all be directly matched. However, due to the different definitions of truck mass in the two standards, the cross-adjustment standard model classification standard requires that the load capacity of small trucks is less than 2 tons, and that of medium trucks is between 2 and 7 tons; while the toll model classification standard requires that the total mass of Class 1 trucks is less than 4.5 tons, and that of Class 2 trucks is not less than 4.5 tons. There is overlap between Class 1 and Class 2 trucks and the standards for small trucks and medium trucks, so they cannot be directly matched. From the matching analysis of the two vehicle classification standards, the two have a high degree of matching in vehicle classification. Only the matching of toll models Class 1 trucks and Class 2 trucks with the cross-adjustment standard models of small trucks and medium trucks has overlaps, which requires conversion.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present invention, the traffic volume of Class 1 trucks and Class 2 trucks of the toll model in the first traffic volume data can be directly converted into the traffic volume of small trucks and medium trucks in the standard traffic model according to the preset division standard. Optionally, the total mass distribution curve of Class 1 trucks is drawn based on the long-term series of highway entrance weighing data to obtain the quantity distribution of the total mass of Class 1 trucks at different tonnages; the first peak of the probability distribution on the left side of the total mass distribution curve is searched by constructing a sliding window, and the corresponding total mass is the average unloaded mass of Class 1 trucks; if within the long-term series and large sample range, the error of directly converting the traffic volume of Class 1 trucks to the traffic volume of small trucks for inter-modulation according to the division standard and the average unloaded mass does not exceed the first preset threshold, then the traffic volume of Class 1 trucks is directly converted into the traffic volume of small trucks in the standard traffic model; if within the long-term series and large sample range, the error of directly converting the traffic volume of Class 2 trucks to the traffic volume of medium trucks for inter-modulation according to the division standard and the average unloaded mass does not exceed the second preset threshold, then the traffic volume of Class 2 trucks is directly converted into the traffic volume of medium trucks in the standard traffic model. The first preset threshold and the second preset threshold can be set as needed. The first preset threshold is preferably 10%. The second preset threshold may be the same as or different from the first preset threshold. In the embodiment of the present invention, the second preset threshold is described as being equal to the first preset threshold.

[0034] Under the two vehicle classification standards, the vehicle length classification standards are the same, both are 6 meters; but the mass classification standards are different. The traffic light trucks are required to have a load capacity ≤ 2 tons, and the toll 1 class trucks are required to have a total mass of less than 4.5 tons. The difference is concentrated in the empty mass of the truck (i.e. the truck's own weight). When the vehicle is unloaded, the empty mass of the same model is basically the same. When loaded, the total mass of the truck varies greatly due to the different weights of the cargo. In order to avoid estimation errors caused by changes in the load of highway trucks in different periods, the total mass distribution curve of Class 1 trucks can be drawn based on the long-term series of highway entrance weighing data to obtain the quantity distribution of the total mass of Class 1 trucks in different tonnages. By constructing a sliding window to search for the first peak of the probability distribution on the left, the corresponding total mass is the average empty mass of Class 1 trucks. If the statistical results satisfy the formula within a long time series and a large sample range: in, The difference between the average empty weight of trucks with a load greater than 2 tons and less than 4.5 tons is , which proves that the error of directly converting the traffic volume of Class 1 trucks into the traffic volume of small trucks in traffic dispatching does not exceed 10%, which meets the accuracy requirements of traffic dispatching vehicle type collection and can be directly matched. The verification idea of ​​direct conversion of Class 2 trucks and trucks in traffic dispatching is the same.

[0035] Alternatively, the traffic volume of Class 1 and Class 2 trucks of the toll model in the first traffic volume data can be converted proportionally into the traffic volume of small trucks and medium trucks in the standard interchange model. Optionally, obtain the historical data of continuous interchange stations on highways, and determine the proportion of medium and small truck traffic volume by route based on the historical data; split the total traffic volume of Class 1 and Class 2 trucks in the ETC gantry traffic data proportionally. In the historical data, there is a route t with a total of n interchange stations. The small truck traffic volume at the i-th (i=1,2,3,…n) ETC interchange station in the route is , the truck traffic volume is , and the total traffic volume of all ETC gantry type 1 trucks and type 2 trucks in route t is , then the split small truck traffic volume for: Medium truck traffic for: The advantages of the proportional splitting method are that it is simple and easy to implement, and the analysis results are highly representative, but it has high requirements on the scale of the traffic station and the quality of the data, and the manual verification operation takes a long time and is costly. Under the condition of meeting the accuracy of traffic model collection, the conversion rules of the direct correspondence method are simple and can achieve real-time conversion, and the conversion process has low requirements on computing performance.

[0036] For the traffic volume of other types of vehicles other than the traffic volume of Class 1 trucks and Class 2 trucks in the first traffic volume data, the traffic volume of other types of vehicles of the toll vehicle in the first traffic volume data is converted into the traffic volume of the corresponding vehicle in the cross-modulation standard vehicle according to the preset corresponding relationship table, i.e., Table 3. The traffic volume of each vehicle in the cross-modulation standard vehicle after the conversion is combined to obtain the second traffic volume data.

[0037] Step S14, collecting statistics on the second traffic volume data to determine the traffic volume of each standard vehicle type at the ETC inter-modulation station.

[0038] Similar to the first traffic volume, the second traffic volume data also includes license plate identification traffic volume and transaction traffic volume by vehicle type. License plate identification traffic volume is the total traffic volume of all inter-modulation standard vehicle types at the ETC inter-modulation station. Transaction traffic volume includes the traffic volume of each inter-modulation standard vehicle type at the ETC inter-modulation station.

[0039] For the traffic volume during the non-free passage period, there is a situation where the transaction data is missing due to the driver's violation. In step S14, optionally, for the non-free passage period, the proportion of each vehicle type is calculated according to the transaction traffic volume by vehicle type; the traffic volume of each vehicle type in the illegal traffic volume is determined according to the proportion of each vehicle type, and the illegal traffic volume is equal to the license plate traffic volume minus the transaction traffic volume; the traffic volume of each vehicle type in the illegal traffic volume and the traffic volume of each vehicle type in the transaction traffic volume are calculated to obtain the traffic volume of each standard vehicle type in the non-free passage period.

[0040] Regarding the traffic volume during the free passage period, there are cases where transaction data is missing due to free passage of MTC passenger cars and violations by drivers. In an embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the total traffic volume of other models other than Class 1 passenger cars during the free passage period is expanded according to the proportion of illegal traffic volume to license plate traffic volume during the non-free passage period; the traffic volume of other standard models other than Class 1 passenger cars during the free passage period is calculated according to the total traffic volume of other models other than Class 1 passenger cars during the free passage period and the proportion of each model during the non-free passage period; the traffic volume of Class 1 passenger cars during the free passage period is equal to the license plate traffic volume during the free passage period minus the total traffic volume of other models. In this way, the traffic volume of each standard model of the free passage period is obtained.

[0041] The embodiment of the present invention realizes the comprehensiveness and accuracy of real-time operation monitoring of the expressway network by focusing on the vehicle passing data of the expressway ETC toll collection system, the basic data of the road network, and the data content of the existing exchange stations. The problem of high cost and heavy maintenance workload caused by the construction of cross arms, ETC gantries, special cable construction, and the arrangement of special personnel for operation and maintenance of new exchange stations is solved without adding other equipment, providing strong data support for evaluating the traffic accessibility of the entire public transportation network.

[0042] In summary, the embodiment of the present invention obtains the basic data of the section of the expressway network to be calculated and the basic data of the ETC gantry, and determines the basic information of the ETC interchange station according to the basic data of the section and the basic data of the ETC gantry; obtains the first traffic volume data of the toll vehicle type of the ETC interchange station in real time according to the basic information; converts the first traffic volume data into the second traffic volume data of the interchange standard vehicle type based on a preset division standard, and the preset division standard includes the division standard of the toll vehicle type in the expressway ETC toll collection system and the division standard of the highway interchange standard vehicle type; statistics the second traffic volume data to determine the traffic volume of each interchange standard vehicle type of the ETC interchange station, and the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the real-time operation monitoring of the expressway network can be achieved without adding other equipment for the newly built interchange station, which can reduce costs and provide strong data support for evaluating the traffic accessibility of the entire public transportation network.
