Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of security technology, and in particular to a door access control system and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The establishment of an access control system is one of the security measures widely adopted by enterprises, institutions, schools, communities, offices and other important places. It is an important means to prevent lawless elements from entering and exiting at will, illegally stealing property or sensitive information, and protecting the life and property safety of units, residents and employees in the area. For places such as factories and parks with large areas and diversified internal area functional divisions, after setting up a large number of access control nodes, the existing access control system often needs to set up a complex permission system to manage the access rights of internal and external personnel. In this case, once an outsider visits and the visitor needs to carry out activities in multiple internal areas, it is necessary to perform very cumbersome access permission configuration to ensure that the visitor has sufficient access rights in the active area and will not mistakenly enter the confidential area, thereby causing sensitive information leakage. In the prior art, the above problem is generally solved by the way of permission classification, by assigning corresponding permission levels to visitors so that they can pass through the access control nodes corresponding to the permission levels, but cannot pass through the access control nodes that exceed their permission levels. However, simple permission level allocation cannot completely solve the above-mentioned information security problems. For example, when some visitors need to enter high-permission level areas or access some high-permission level information due to business needs, they need to be assigned high-permission level entry and exit permissions, which leads to greater security risks. Summary of the invention

[0003] Based on the above problems, the present invention proposes an access control system and a control method thereof, which can safely and efficiently allocate the entry and exit rights of visitors.

[0014] The time when the visitor leaves the target area in the itinerary information plus the buffer time is used as the lower limit of the authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area.

Therefore, the features defined as "first", "second", etc. can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more.

[0050] In the description of this specification, the description of the terms "one embodiment", "some implementations", "specific embodiments", etc. means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, the schematic representation of the above terms does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.

[0051] An access control system and a control method thereof provided according to some embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0052] like Figure 1As shown, the first aspect of the present invention proposes a door access control system, including an entrance and exit set at a control area and a sub-area within the control area, a plurality of door access control nodes for controlling the access rights of the control area and the sub-area within the control area, and a permission management device for allocating the access rights of the control area and the sub-area within the control area. The control area refers to an area where the access rights are managed by the door access control system. The control area can be a park such as a factory park, a campus park or a community, and the control area can also be a building or an office. According to the size of the control area, the control area can also include one or more sub-areas, and the sub-area can be a sub-area within a park, a building within a park, a unit within a building, a floor or an office, and each sub-area is controlled by its own door access control node. The door access control node can be a gate access control of a park, a building, an office or other area, or a channel gate of the access channel of the above area.

[0053] Specifically, the rights management device includes a processor and a memory, such as Figure 2 As shown, the processor executes the computer program stored in the memory to implement the following method:

[0054] Enter the visitor's itinerary information, including the time when the visitor enters and leaves the controlled area and sub-areas within the controlled area;

[0055] Bind a unique identification number to the visitor;

[0056] Determine the activity route of the visitor according to the itinerary information;

[0057] Determine the access control nodes that the activity route passes through;

[0058] The visitor is granted permission to pass through the access control node based on the travel information and the activity route.

[0059] Specifically, in some embodiments of the present invention, after the step of entering the visitor's itinerary information, it also includes entering the visitor's biometric identification information, such as facial information, fingerprint information, etc., and binding the visitor's biometric identification information with the visitor's unique identification number. When the visitor passes through an authorized access control node, the visitor can pass through the corresponding access control node using facial recognition or fingerprint recognition. In other embodiments of the present invention, after the step of binding a unique identification number for the visitor, it also includes writing the unique identification number into the visitor's identity card, and distributing the identity card to the visitor before the visitor enters the control area. The visitor can use the identity card to move around in the control area according to the activity route. Using the technical solution of the above-mentioned embodiment, the access control system configures the permissions of each access control node for the visitor based on the visitor's itinerary information, making the permission configuration of the access control system safer and more efficient.

[0060] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned access control system, in the step of granting the visitor permission to pass through the access control node according to the travel information and the activity route, the permission management device is configured as follows:

[0061] Determine the time when the visitor in the itinerary information enters and leaves the controlled area and the sub-areas within the controlled area;

[0062] Determine the access control nodes corresponding to entering and leaving the controlled area and the sub-areas within the controlled area;

[0063] The time when the visitor enters the target area in the itinerary information minus the buffer time is used as the upper limit of the authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area, and the target area includes the control area and the sub-areas within the control area;

[0064] The time when the visitor leaves the target area in the itinerary information plus the buffer time is used as the lower limit of the authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area.

[0065] For example, when one of the itinerary items included in the user's itinerary information is a meeting in Conference Room A from 9:00 to 10:00. Conference Room A has only one door as an entrance and exit, and Conference Room A is a sub-area within the control area. The time when the visitor enters the sub-area is determined to be 9:00 and the time when he leaves the sub-area is 10:00. The door of Conference Room A is both the access control node for entering the sub-area and the access control node for leaving the sub-area. In the technical solution of the above implementation, a buffer time is pre-configured as the tolerance time for early arrival or delayed departure. According to actual needs, the buffer time can be configured to 10 minutes, 15 minutes or half an hour, etc. Furthermore, when the visitor does not leave the corresponding control area or a sub-area of ​​the control area within the authorized time, the administrator of the access control system can configure a delay time for the visitor, which is equal to or slightly greater than the difference between the lower boundary of the authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the current control area or the sub-area of ​​the control area and the current time, so that the authorization time of the access control nodes corresponding to the itinerary after the current itinerary of the visitor is added with the delay time, thereby avoiding the need for reconfiguration of the authorization time of the access control nodes passed by all subsequent activity routes due to the delay of a certain itinerary of the visitor, which causes the authorization time to become invalid.

[0066] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned access control system, in the step of granting the visitor permission to pass through the access control node according to the travel information and the activity route, the permission management device is configured as follows:

[0067] According to the geographical location inclusion relationship between the control area and the sub-areas within the control area, the corresponding access control nodes passed by the activity route are determined as parent-child node relationships;

[0068] Configure the authorized time range of a child node to be a subset of the authorized time range of the parent node.

[0069] Furthermore, the access control node authorization time mode of the access control system includes a nested mode. When the access control node authorization time mode of the access control system is configured as a nested mode, the access control node authorization time of the visitor is authorized using the nested mode. Specifically, in the nested mode, the access control nodes of the control area are determined as root nodes. For example, when the control area is a factory park, the gate access control node of the factory park is determined as the root node, and each area in the park is determined as a parent-child node relationship based on the geographical location. Continuing to take the factory park as an example, the access control node at the entrance of the office building in the park is a child node of the root node, and the root node is correspondingly the parent node of the access control node at the entrance of the office building. Similarly, the office building contains multiple sub-areas. For example, one floor is a sub-area, and an access control node is installed for the entrance and exit passage of each floor. The access control nodes of each floor are all child nodes of the entrance access control node of the office building, and so on. Exemplarily, in the nested mode, when the visitor's itinerary information shows that the time of entering and exiting the industrial park is 9:00 and 18:00 respectively, and the time of entering and exiting the office building is 9:30 and 11:30 respectively, and the buffer time is 15 minutes, the visitor's authorization time at the factory park gate access control node is [8:45-18:15], and the authorization time at the office building entrance access control node is [9:15-11:45]. The office building is geographically contained with the factory park, so its authorization time [9:15-11:45] is a subset of the authorization time [8:45-18:15] for entering and exiting the factory park. That is, the visitor can enter and exit the factory park gate access control node at any time during [8:45-18:15] and the office building entrance access control node at any time during [9:15-11:45] by using his biometric identification information or the identity card issued to him. The technical solution of this implementation makes it more efficient and simple to configure the authorization time of each access control node for visitors in the access control system. There is no need for a lot of tedious operations. The authorization time of each access control node can be directly generated for the visitor by simply entering the visitor's itinerary information.

[0070] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned access control system, in the step of granting the visitor permission to pass through the access control node according to the travel information and the activity route, the permission management device is configured as follows:

[0071] According to the travel information, configure an entry time and an exit time for each access control node on the activity route;

[0072] The authorization time of the visitor at the corresponding access control node is configured according to the entry time and exit time of each access control node.

[0073] Further, the access control node authorization time mode of the access control system includes a serial mode. When the access control node authorization time mode of the access control system is configured as a serial mode, the serial mode is used to authorize the access control node authorization time of the visitor. Specifically, in the serial mode, the authorization time of the visitor at each access control node is only related to the time sequence of the activity route passing through each access control node, and has nothing to do with the geographical location relationship of the control area or sub-area associated with each access control node. In this embodiment, the time when the visitor enters the target area in the itinerary information minus the buffer time is used as the upper boundary of the entry authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area, and the time when the visitor enters the target area in the itinerary information plus the buffer time is used as the lower boundary of the entry authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area, and the target area includes the control area and the sub-area within the control area. Similarly, the time when the visitor leaves the target area in the itinerary information minus the buffer time is used as the upper boundary of the departure authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area, and the time when the visitor leaves the target area in the itinerary information plus the buffer time is used as the lower boundary of the departure authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area. Exemplarily, in serial mode, when the visitor's itinerary information shows that the time of entering and exiting the park is 9:00 and 18:00 respectively, and the time of entering and exiting the office building is 9:30 and 11:30 respectively, and the buffer time is 15 minutes, the visitor's entry authorization time at the factory park gate access control node is [8:45-9:15], and the exit authorization time is [17:45-18:15], and the entry authorization time at the office building entrance access control node is [9:15-9:45], and the exit authorization time is [11:15-11:45]. By adopting the technical solution of the above-mentioned implementation mode, visitors are independently configured with authorization times at the entry time and exit time of each access control node. Outside the authorization time, visitors cannot pass through the corresponding access control node. That is, in the above-mentioned embodiment, during the period of [9:45-11:15], visitors cannot pass through the office building entrance access control node using their biometric identification information or the identity card issued to them; during the period of [9:15-17:45], visitors cannot pass through the factory park gate access control node using their biometric identification information or the identity card issued to them. As a result, visitors can only move in the area corresponding to the activity route within the time range arranged by the itinerary information, and cannot enter and exit at will, so that the access control system has higher security.

[0074] Further, in serial mode, the upper boundary of the entry authorization time of the rear access control node is configured as the lower boundary of the departure authorization time of the previous access control node plus the moving time, and the lower boundary of the departure authorization time of the rear access control node is configured as the upper boundary of the rear access control node plus the activity time and twice the buffer time. Adopting the technical solution of this implementation mode, in the step of entering the itinerary information of the visitor, only the time when the visitor enters the root node and the activity time of each itinerary item need to be entered to generate the upper boundary and lower boundary of the authorization time of each access control node through which the activity route passes, without the need to enter the start time and end time of each itinerary item separately. Thereby, the authorization time configuration of each access control node by the access control system is made simpler, more efficient and more flexible. In serial mode, when the visitor does not leave the corresponding control area or the sub-area of ​​the control area within the authorization time, the administrator of the access control system can reconfigure the lower boundary of the departure time of the access control node corresponding to the current sub-area for the visitor, and regenerate the upper boundary and lower boundary of the entry and departure authorization time of all the access control nodes in the rear of the activity route in the above manner.

[0075] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned access control system, the authority management device is further configured as follows:

[0076] Determine the access control nodes corresponding to the functional areas around the activity route;

[0077] The visitor is granted permission to pass through the access control node corresponding to the functional area according to the travel information and the activity route.

[0078] Specifically, the functional area includes a rest area, a shopping area, a sports area or a smoking area, etc. In the step of determining the access control nodes corresponding to the functional areas around the activity route, it also includes:

[0079] Determine whether the current sub-area needs to pass through other non-functional areas to the target functional area;

[0080] When the determination is yes, the visitor is not granted permission to pass through the access control node of the target functional area;

[0081] When the determination is no, the visitor is granted permission to pass through the access control node of the target functional area.

[0082] like Figure 2 As shown, the second aspect of the present invention provides a door access control system control method, comprising:

[0083] Enter the visitor's itinerary information, including the time when the visitor enters and leaves the controlled area and sub-areas within the controlled area;

[0084] Bind a unique identification number to the visitor;

[0085] Determine the activity route of the visitor according to the itinerary information;

[0086] Determine the access control nodes that the activity route passes through;

[0087] The visitor is granted permission to pass through the access control node based on the travel information and the activity route.

[0088] Specifically, in some embodiments of the present invention, after the step of entering the visitor's itinerary information, it also includes entering the visitor's biometric identification information, such as facial information, fingerprint information, etc., and binding the visitor's biometric identification information with the visitor's unique identification number. When the visitor passes through an authorized access control node, the visitor can pass through the corresponding access control node using facial recognition or fingerprint recognition. In other embodiments of the present invention, after the step of binding a unique identification number for the visitor, it also includes writing the unique identification number into the visitor's identity card, and distributing the identity card to the visitor before the visitor enters the control area. The visitor can use the identity card to move around in the control area according to the activity route. Using the technical solution of the above-mentioned embodiment, the access control system configures the permissions of each access control node for the visitor based on the visitor's itinerary information, making the permission configuration of the access control system safer and more efficient.

[0089] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned access control system control method, the step of granting the visitor permission to pass through the access control node according to the travel information and the activity route specifically includes:

[0090] Determine the time when the visitor in the itinerary information enters and leaves the controlled area and the sub-areas within the controlled area;

[0091] Determine the access control nodes corresponding to entering and leaving the controlled area and the sub-areas within the controlled area;

[0092] The time when the visitor enters the target area in the itinerary information minus the buffer time is used as the upper limit of the authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area, and the target area includes the control area and the sub-areas within the control area;

[0093] The time when the visitor leaves the target area in the itinerary information plus the buffer time is used as the lower limit of the authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area.

[0094] For example, when one of the itinerary items included in the user's itinerary information is a meeting in Conference Room A from 9:00 to 10:00. Conference Room A has only one door as an entrance and exit, and Conference Room A is a sub-area within the control area. The time when the visitor enters the sub-area is determined to be 9:00 and the time when he leaves the sub-area is 10:00. The door of Conference Room A is both the access control node for entering the sub-area and the access control node for leaving the sub-area. In the technical solution of the above implementation, a buffer time is pre-configured as the tolerance time for early arrival or delayed departure. According to actual needs, the buffer time can be configured to 10 minutes, 15 minutes or half an hour, etc. Furthermore, when the visitor does not leave the corresponding control area or a sub-area of ​​the control area within the authorized time, the administrator of the access control system can configure a delay time for the visitor, which is equal to or slightly greater than the difference between the lower boundary of the authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the current control area or the sub-area of ​​the control area and the current time, so that the authorization time of the access control nodes corresponding to the itinerary after the current itinerary of the visitor is added with the delay time, thereby avoiding the need for reconfiguration of the authorization time of the access control nodes passed by all subsequent activity routes due to the delay of a certain itinerary of the visitor, which causes the authorization time to become invalid.

[0095] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned access control system control method, the step of granting the visitor permission to pass through the access control node according to the travel information and the activity route specifically includes:

[0096] According to the geographical location inclusion relationship between the control area and the sub-areas within the control area, the corresponding access control nodes passed by the activity route are determined as parent-child node relationships;

[0097] Configure the authorized time range of a child node to be a subset of the authorized time range of the parent node.

[0098] Furthermore, the access control node authorization time mode of the access control system includes a nested mode. When the access control node authorization time mode of the access control system is configured as a nested mode, the access control node authorization time of the visitor is authorized using the nested mode. Specifically, in the nested mode, the access control nodes of the control area are determined as root nodes. For example, when the control area is a factory park, the gate access control node of the factory park is determined as the root node, and each area in the park is determined as a parent-child node relationship based on the geographical location. Continuing to take the factory park as an example, the access control node at the entrance of the office building in the park is a child node of the root node, and the root node is correspondingly the parent node of the access control node at the entrance of the office building. Similarly, the office building contains multiple sub-areas. For example, one floor is a sub-area, and an access control node is installed for the entrance and exit passage of each floor. The access control nodes of each floor are all child nodes of the entrance access control node of the office building, and so on. Exemplarily, in the nested mode, when the visitor's itinerary information shows that the time of entering and exiting the industrial park is 9:00 and 18:00 respectively, and the time of entering and exiting the office building is 9:30 and 11:30 respectively, and the buffer time is 15 minutes, the visitor's authorization time at the factory park gate access control node is [8:45-18:15], and the authorization time at the office building entrance access control node is [9:15-11:45]. The office building is geographically contained with the factory park, so its authorization time [9:15-11:45] is a subset of the authorization time [8:45-18:15] for entering and exiting the factory park. That is, the visitor can enter and exit the factory park gate access control node at any time during [8:45-18:15] and the office building entrance access control node at any time during [9:15-11:45] by using his biometric identification information or the identity card issued to him. The technical solution of this implementation makes it more efficient and simple to configure the authorization time of each access control node for visitors in the access control system. There is no need for a lot of tedious operations. The authorization time of each access control node can be directly generated for the visitor by simply entering the visitor's itinerary information.

[0099] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned access control system control method, the step of granting the visitor permission to pass through the access control node according to the travel information and the activity route specifically includes:

[0100] According to the travel information, configure an entry time and an exit time for each access control node on the activity route;

[0101] The authorization time of the visitor at the corresponding access control node is configured according to the entry time and exit time of each access control node.

[0102] Further, the access control node authorization time mode of the access control system includes a serial mode. When the access control node authorization time mode of the access control system is configured as a serial mode, the serial mode is used to authorize the access control node authorization time of the visitor. Specifically, in the serial mode, the authorization time of the visitor at each access control node is only related to the time sequence of the activity route passing through each access control node, and has nothing to do with the geographical location relationship of the control area or sub-area associated with each access control node. In this embodiment, the time when the visitor enters the target area in the itinerary information minus the buffer time is used as the upper boundary of the entry authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area, and the time when the visitor enters the target area in the itinerary information plus the buffer time is used as the lower boundary of the entry authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area, and the target area includes the control area and the sub-area within the control area. Similarly, the time when the visitor leaves the target area in the itinerary information minus the buffer time is used as the upper boundary of the departure authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area, and the time when the visitor leaves the target area in the itinerary information plus the buffer time is used as the lower boundary of the departure authorization time of the access control node corresponding to the target area. Exemplarily, in serial mode, when the visitor's itinerary information shows that the time of entering and exiting the park is 9:00 and 18:00 respectively, and the time of entering and exiting the office building is 9:30 and 11:30 respectively, and the buffer time is 15 minutes, the visitor's entry authorization time at the factory park gate access control node is [8:45-9:15], and the exit authorization time is [17:45-18:15], and the entry authorization time at the office building entrance access control node is [9:15-9:45], and the exit authorization time is [11:15-11:45]. By adopting the technical solution of the above-mentioned implementation mode, visitors are independently configured with authorization times at the entry time and exit time of each access control node. Outside the authorization time, visitors cannot pass through the corresponding access control node. That is, in the above-mentioned embodiment, during the period of [9:45-11:15], visitors cannot pass through the office building entrance access control node using their biometric identification information or the identity card issued to them; during the period of [9:15-17:45], visitors cannot pass through the factory park gate access control node using their biometric identification information or the identity card issued to them. As a result, visitors can only move in the area corresponding to the activity route within the time range arranged by the itinerary information, and cannot enter and exit at will, so that the access control system has higher security.

[0103] Further, in serial mode, the upper boundary of the entry authorization time of the rear access control node is configured as the lower boundary of the departure authorization time of the previous access control node plus the moving time, and the lower boundary of the departure authorization time of the rear access control node is configured as the upper boundary of the rear access control node plus the activity time and twice the buffer time. Adopting the technical solution of this implementation mode, in the step of entering the itinerary information of the visitor, only the time when the visitor enters the root node and the activity time of each itinerary item need to be entered to generate the upper boundary and lower boundary of the authorization time of each access control node through which the activity route passes, without the need to enter the start time and end time of each itinerary item separately. Thereby, the authorization time configuration of each access control node by the access control system is made simpler, more efficient and more flexible. In serial mode, when the visitor does not leave the corresponding control area or the sub-area of ​​the control area within the authorization time, the administrator of the access control system can reconfigure the lower boundary of the departure time of the access control node corresponding to the current sub-area for the visitor, and regenerate the upper boundary and lower boundary of the entry and departure authorization time of all the access control nodes in the rear of the activity route in the above manner.

[0104] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned access control system control method, it also includes:

[0105] Determine the access control nodes corresponding to the functional areas around the activity route;

[0106] The visitor is granted permission to pass through the access control node corresponding to the functional area according to the travel information and the activity route.

[0107] Specifically, the functional area includes a rest area, a shopping area, a sports area or a smoking area, etc. In the step of determining the access control nodes corresponding to the functional areas around the activity route, it also includes:

[0108] Determine whether the current sub-area needs to pass through other non-functional areas to the target functional area;

[0109] When the determination is yes, the visitor is not granted permission to pass through the access control node of the target functional area;

[0110] When the determination is no, the visitor is granted permission to pass through the access control node of the target functional area.

[0111] The present invention proposes a door access control system and a control method thereof, which comprises a plurality of door access control nodes for controlling the entry and exit rights of the control area and the sub-areas within the control area and a permission management device for allocating the entry and exit rights of the control area and the sub-areas within the control area, wherein the permission management device is configured to: input the itinerary information of the visitor, wherein the itinerary information includes the time when the visitor enters and leaves the control area and the sub-areas within the control area, bind a unique identity number to the visitor, determine the activity route of the visitor according to the itinerary information, determine the door access control nodes passed by the activity route, grant the visitor the permission to pass through the door access control nodes according to the itinerary information and the activity route, and safely and efficiently allocate the entry and exit rights of the visitor.
