[0049] The application scenarios involved in the embodiments of this application will be described below:

[0050] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 The present application illustrates a vehicle toll collection and release system provided in an embodiment of the present application, including: a roadside positioning device 10, a data processing platform 20, and a roadside V2X device 30.

[0051] The roadside positioning device 10 is communicatively connected to the data processing platform 20. The roadside positioning device 10 is used to scan vehicles appearing within a preset range to obtain first positioning data and send the first positioning data to the data processing platform 20.

[0052] In a specific implementation, the roadside positioning device 10 can be set at a first preset position on the toll road and can obtain first positioning data by scanning vehicles that have entered the preset range.

[0053] It should be noted that the aforementioned first preset position can be set according to the actual application scenario, and this application does not impose any restrictions on it.

[0054] For example, please refer to Figure 2The aforementioned roadside positioning device 10 can be installed at the entrance of a toll road (e.g., Figure 2 A1 location in the middle of the toll road (e.g., the middle area of ​​the toll road) Figure 2 Location A2 in the middle), toll road exit (such as...) Figure 2 (e.g., A3 position in the diagram). In this embodiment, the roadside positioning device is installed on the road section before entering the toll area to allow sufficient time to classify vehicles and guide them into different toll lanes. Of course, the roadside positioning device 10 can also be installed at multiple preset locations, such as one at the entrance of the toll road, one in the middle of the toll road, and one at the exit of the toll road. Each roadside positioning device will scan vehicles appearing within a preset range to obtain first positioning data.

[0055] It should also be noted that the above preset range can be set according to the actual application scenario, and this application does not impose any restrictions on it.

[0056] For example, please continue reading Figure 2 The aforementioned preset range can typically be set as the area covered by a road starting at a preset distance from the toll road entrance and ending at the toll road entrance (i.e., Figure 2 B1 in the text); it can also be set as a section of a toll road (i.e. Figure 2 B2); it can also be set to cover the area starting from a preset distance from the toll road exit and ending at the toll road entrance (i.e., Figure 2 (B3 in the text); of course, it can also be B3. Figure 2 The range covered by B1, B2, and B3 in the text.

[0057] In practical applications, the aforementioned preset distance can be determined based on the scanning coverage of the roadside positioning device 10, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0058] In this embodiment of the application, the roadside positioning device 10 may be a radar scanning device; the radar scanning device may be a lidar, millimeter-wave radar, etc.; the roadside positioning device 10 may also be an infrared thermal imager; it is understood that the above are just examples, and the roadside positioning device 10 may also be other computer devices capable of scanning vehicles appearing within a preset range.

[0059] The aforementioned roadside V2X device 30 is also connected to the data processing platform 20. The roadside V2X device 30 is used to receive the second location data broadcast by the vehicle-mounted transaction device and send the second location data to the data processing platform 20.

[0060] In this embodiment of the application, the roadside V2X device 30 mentioned above refers to a roadside device with vehicle wireless communication technology, which can communicate wirelessly with vehicle-mounted transaction equipment, such as a roadside base station.

[0061] It should be noted that Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) wireless communication technology is a key technology for future intelligent transportation systems. It enables communication between vehicles, between vehicles and base stations, and between base stations to obtain real-time traffic information, including road conditions, pedestrian information, and more. A V2X-based toll collection system can include roadside equipment and onboard transaction devices. Onboard transaction devices typically possess both positioning and transaction capabilities, such as on-board units (OBUs). The positioning function of onboard transaction devices can be implemented using various technologies, including wireless positioning, satellite positioning, and base station positioning. The onboard transaction device broadcasts the location data of the vehicle equipped with it in real time. Roadside equipment and onboard transaction devices can communicate via wireless communication methods such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Ethernet; this application does not impose any limitations on this.

[0062] When a vehicle equipped with an on-board transaction device broadcasts its location data (i.e., second location data), the roadside V2X device 30, which is capable of wireless communication with the on-board transaction device, can receive the second location data.

[0063] It should be noted that the aforementioned roadside V2X device 30 can also be set at a second preset location on the toll road section according to actual application needs. The second preset location can also be set according to the actual application scenario, and this application does not impose any restrictions on it.

[0064] For example, please continue reading Figure 2 The aforementioned roadside V2X device 30 can be installed at the entrance of a toll road (e.g., Figure 2 (C1 position in the middle of the toll road) Figure 2 (C2 location in the middle), toll road exit (such as...) Figure 2 The location of the roadside V2X device 30 can be determined based on the location of the roadside positioning device 10, etc. This application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0065] In one implementation of this application, the roadside V2X device 30 can also be installed in the same device as the roadside positioning device 10. That is, the device can scan vehicles appearing within a preset range to obtain first positioning data, and can also receive second positioning data broadcast by the vehicle-mounted transaction device.

[0066] The aforementioned data processing platform 20 is used to receive first positioning data and second positioning data, and to identify first-class vehicles and second-class vehicles within a preset range based on the first positioning data and second positioning data.

[0067] In this application embodiment, the first type of vehicle refers to a vehicle that has been equipped with an in-vehicle trading device, and the second type of vehicle refers to a vehicle that has not been equipped with an in-vehicle trading device.

[0068] In this embodiment of the application, the first positioning data is the roadside positioning device 10, such as a radar scanning device, which scans all types of vehicles in the area. That is, the first positioning data includes the positioning data of the first type of vehicle and the positioning data of the second type of vehicle.

[0069] The second location data is the vehicle location data broadcast by vehicles equipped with in-vehicle trading devices, which includes the location data of the first type of vehicles.

[0070] In a specific application, the data processing platform 20 receives first positioning data obtained by the roadside positioning device 10 scanning vehicles appearing within a preset range, and receives second positioning data sent by the roadside V2X device 30. Then, based on the first and second positioning data, it identifies the type of vehicle within the preset range, i.e., whether it is a first-class vehicle or a second-class vehicle.

[0071] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment of this application, the vehicle toll collection and release system further includes a license plate recognition device 40.

[0072] The aforementioned license plate recognition device 40 can communicate with the data processing platform 20, and after recognizing the license plate number of the second type of vehicle, it sends the recognized license plate number to the data processing platform 20.

[0073] The aforementioned license plate recognition device 40 is used to recognize the license plate number of a second type of vehicle.

[0074] In a specific implementation, the license plate recognition device 40 may include a capture device, such as a high-definition camera, which captures the head or tail image of the second type of vehicle and identifies the license plate number from the image.

[0075] In a specific application, when the data processing platform 20 identifies a second type of vehicle within a preset range, it sends a license plate acquisition instruction to the license plate recognition device 40, so that the license plate recognition device 40 can acquire and recognize the license plate number of the vehicle, and then the license plate recognition device 40 can upload the vehicle's license plate number to the data processing platform 20.

[0076] It should be noted that the location of the license plate recognition device 40 can also be determined according to actual application needs.

[0077] Specifically, the license plate recognition device 40 can be set in the same position as the roadside positioning device 10, or in the same position as the roadside V2X device 30.

[0078] Please continue reading. Figure 3 In one embodiment of this application, the vehicle toll collection and release system may further include a notification device 50.

[0079] The device 50 is indicated to be able to communicate with the data processing platform 20.

[0080] In this embodiment, the aforementioned prompting device 50 is used to display prompt information. The prompt information is used to instruct the second type of vehicles to proceed along a preset route to the manual toll lane. Of course, the aforementioned prompting device can also be used to instruct the first type of vehicles to enter the ETC toll lane.

[0081] In this embodiment of the application, the aforementioned warning device 50 can be installed on both sides of the road or in other locations that are easily visible to drivers.

[0082] In practical applications, the aforementioned prompting device 50 can be a roadside light sign or a broadcasting device that can emit prompt sounds.

[0083] Please continue reading. Figure 3 In one embodiment of this application, the vehicle toll collection and release system further includes a toll collection platform system 60.

[0084] The aforementioned charging platform system 60 can also communicate with the data processing platform 20.

[0085] When the data processing platform 20 determines that a second type of vehicle is not traveling along the preset route, it will predict the vehicle's future travel route and then send the vehicle's future travel route to the toll platform system 60. After receiving the vehicle's future travel route, the toll platform system 60 can remind staff to take action.

[0086] As can be seen from the above, the vehicle toll collection and release system provided in this application embodiment can identify vehicles appearing within a preset range to determine the vehicle classification, and then adopt different toll collection methods for different types of vehicles, so that vehicles can pass through the toll station quickly and improve vehicle traffic efficiency.

[0087] based on Figures 1-3 The vehicle toll collection and release system shown in this application provides a method for toll collection and release. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4 The above-mentioned method for toll collection and release of vehicles may include the following steps:

[0088] S41: Receive the first positioning data and the second positioning data.

[0089] In this embodiment of the application, the first positioning data is vehicle positioning data obtained by scanning vehicles appearing within a preset range using a roadside positioning device, and the second positioning data is vehicle positioning data broadcast by an on-board transaction device.

[0090] In its implementation, the roadside positioning device scans vehicles appearing within a preset range to obtain the first positioning data. This first positioning data includes the positioning data of all vehicles appearing within the preset range, for example... Figure 2 The location data of the first type of vehicle and the location data of the second type of vehicle appearing within the preset range B1.

[0091] In practice, the vehicle location data broadcast by the onboard transaction device is received by the roadside V2X device, which then sends the received vehicle location data to the computer device, enabling the computer device to receive the aforementioned second location data. The second location data only contains the location data of the first type of vehicles.

[0092] For example, suppose Figure 2 The first vehicle in the process is a vehicle equipped with an on-board transaction device. At this time, the on-board transaction device installed on the first vehicle will broadcast the location data of the first vehicle to the outside world. The roadside V2X device will receive the location data of the first vehicle broadcast by the on-board transaction device on the first vehicle, which is the second location data.

[0093] It should be noted that the relevant descriptions of the roadside positioning device, roadside V2X equipment, and preset range can be found in the description of the previous embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0094] S42: Identify the first type of vehicle and the second type of vehicle within the preset range based on the first positioning data and the second positioning data, and guide the second type of vehicle to enter the manual toll lane.

[0095] The first category of vehicles refers to vehicles that have been equipped with in-vehicle trading equipment, while the second category of vehicles refers to vehicles that have not been equipped with in-vehicle trading equipment.

[0096] In this embodiment, since the first location data is the location data of all vehicles appearing within a preset range, and the second location data is the location data of vehicles equipped with in-vehicle trading devices, by comparing the first and second location data, it is possible to determine whether a vehicle appearing within the preset range is a first-class vehicle or a second-class vehicle. That is, if the location data of a certain vehicle exists in both the first and second location data, it indicates that the vehicle is a first-class vehicle; if the location data of a certain vehicle exists only in the first location data, but not in the second location data, it can be determined that the vehicle is a second-class vehicle.

[0097] In this embodiment, when a vehicle within the preset range is identified as a Class 1 vehicle, it can be guided to the ETC toll lane and allowed to pass through the entrance and exit of the toll road using a free-flow method. When a vehicle within the preset range is identified as a Class 2 vehicle, it needs to be guided to the manual toll lane to complete the toll payment.

[0098] It should be noted that since the first type of vehicles are already equipped with on-board transaction devices that can automatically deduct tolls, there is no need for manual toll collection. They only need to be guided to the ETC toll lane and allowed to pass through the entrance and exit of the toll road in a free-flow manner, which can improve the efficiency of vehicle release.

[0099] It should also be noted that the aforementioned free-flow mode refers to a mode of driving where there is no interference with the vehicle's movement, and the vehicle can drive normally on toll roads without any obstruction.

[0100] In practical applications, drivers can be reminded to enter the ETC lane via electronic signs or audible prompts, or via onboard transaction devices to provide text, voice, and visual prompts.

[0101] Since the second category of vehicles does not have on-board transaction equipment installed, they cannot make automatic payments. Therefore, manual payment is required, which means they need to be guided to the manual payment lane.

[0102] Please see Figure 5 In one implementation of this application, the above-mentioned S42 may include the following steps:

[0103] S421: Perform data fusion processing on the first positioning data and the second positioning data.

[0104] S422: If there is second location data that matches the first location data, then determine that the vehicle corresponding to the first location data is the first type of vehicle; and determine the vehicle information of the vehicle according to the second location data, and guide the first type of vehicle to the ETC toll lane according to the vehicle information of the first type of vehicle.

[0105] S423: If there is no second location data that matches the first location data, then the vehicle corresponding to the first location data is determined to be the second type of vehicle, and the vehicle information of the second type of vehicle is obtained through the license plate recognition device, and the second type of vehicle is guided to the manual toll lane according to the vehicle information of the second type of vehicle.

[0106] In this embodiment of the application, the above-mentioned data fusion processing of the first positioning data and the second positioning data refers to the data integration processing of the first positioning data and the second positioning data obtained from different data sources, so as to facilitate subsequent data matching.

[0107] To perform data fusion processing on the first and second positioning data, the positioning data in the first and second positioning data can be set to the same positioning method first, and then the data can be merged.

[0108] For example, assuming the first positioning data is based on radar point cloud data and the second positioning data is based on GPS data, the radar point cloud data in the first positioning data can be converted into latitude and longitude for positioning, and the GPS data in the second positioning data can be converted into latitude and longitude for positioning. Then the two are merged to complete the data fusion process.

[0109] By fusing the first and second location data, the second and first location data can be matched. If there is second location data that matches the first location data, it means that the vehicle corresponding to the matching location data is equipped with an in-vehicle transaction device, that is, the vehicle is a first-class vehicle. If there is no second location data that matches the first location data, it means that there is only the first location data, and the vehicle corresponding to the first location data is a second-class vehicle.

[0110] For example, please refer to the following: Figure 2 Assuming Figure 2 The first vehicle in the data is equipped with an on-board transaction device, and the second vehicle is not equipped with such a device. Therefore, the first location data includes both the location data of the first and second vehicles, while the second location data only includes the location data of the first vehicle. When the first and second location data are matched, it will be found that the second location data contains location data that matches the location data of the first vehicle in the first location data, but not the location data of the second vehicle in the first location data. Therefore, the computer can determine that the first vehicle is a Class 1 vehicle and the second vehicle is a Class 2 vehicle.

[0111] For Category 1 vehicles, since they are already equipped with onboard transaction devices, the system can guide them to the ETC toll lane based on vehicle information, such as license plate number, from the second location data sent by the onboard transaction device. The second location data includes license plate number, temporary vehicle ID, vehicle dimensions, location information, heading angle, and speed. Therefore, the vehicle toll release system can determine the vehicle information of Category 1 vehicles based on the second location data and then use the onboard transaction device to provide text, voice, and image prompts to remind the driver to enter the ETC lane. Alternatively, electronic signs on the roadside or broadcast devices capable of emitting audible alerts can also be used to remind drivers to enter the ETC lane.

[0112] It should be noted that the vehicle's temporary ID changes randomly from time to time, so it can also be used in conjunction with video capture.

[0113] For the second type of vehicle, since it is not equipped with onboard transaction equipment, a license plate recognition device is required to obtain the license plate number. This license plate recognition device may include a capture device, which captures images.

[0114] As can be seen from the above, the vehicle toll collection and release method provided in this application embodiment can identify vehicles appearing within a preset range to determine the vehicle classification, and then adopt different toll collection methods for different types of vehicles, so that vehicles can pass through toll stations quickly and improve vehicle traffic efficiency.

[0115] Please see Figure 6 This application also provides another method for vehicle toll collection and release, such as... Figure 6 As shown, unlike the above embodiments, the vehicle toll collection and release method provided in this application embodiment may further include the following steps after S42:

[0116] S61: Obtain vehicle information for the second type of vehicle, wherein the vehicle information includes the license plate number.

[0117] In this embodiment, the vehicle information is obtained from a license plate recognition device used to identify license plate numbers. Typically, the license plate recognition device may include an image capture device, such as a high-definition camera, to acquire a front or rear image of the vehicle and identify the license plate number from the image.

[0118] S62: Associate the first positioning data of the second type of vehicle with the vehicle information.

[0119] Associating the first location data and vehicle information of the second type of vehicle means linking the obtained license plate number with the vehicle's location. For the vehicle toll collection and release system, this allows the system to determine the license plate number of a specific vehicle at a particular location.

[0120] S63: Generate a prompt message based on the associated vehicle information and the first positioning data, and send the prompt message to the prompting device to prompt the second type of vehicle to travel to the manual toll lane according to the preset route.

[0121] The preset route in the prompt information is determined based on the first positioning data of the second type of vehicle. In practical applications, the current location of the second type of vehicle can be determined through the first positioning data. Then, based on the current location of the second type of vehicle and the location of the manual toll lane, the preset route can be planned to guide the second type of vehicle into the manual toll lane.

[0122] For example, the content of the prompt message generated based on the associated vehicle information and the first positioning data could be: Please have vehicle with license plate number: xxxxxxx enter the manual toll lanes on both sides; or it could be: Please have vehicle with license plate number: xxxxxx enter the manual toll lanes on both sides at xx meters ahead.

[0123] In practical applications, since the second category of vehicles are those without onboard transaction equipment, the only way to remind drivers to follow the preset route to the manual toll lane is through electronic signs on the roadside or broadcast devices that can emit prompts.

[0124] S64: Acquire the first positioning data of the second type of vehicle in real time, and determine the actual driving route of the second type of vehicle based on the first positioning data acquired in real time.

[0125] In practical applications, computer equipment can obtain the first positioning data of the second type of vehicle in real time through the roadside positioning device, and then determine the actual driving route of the second type of vehicle based on the first positioning data of the second type of vehicle obtained in real time.

[0126] S65: Based on the actual driving route and the preset route, determine whether the second type of vehicle is driving along the preset route.

[0127] In practical applications, by comparing the actual driving route with the preset route, it can be determined whether the second type of vehicle is driving according to the preset route.

[0128] For example, if the preset route requires the second type of vehicle to enter the manual toll lanes on both sides, but the actual driving route of the second type of vehicle is not to change lanes to the manual toll lanes on both sides, then it can be determined that the second type of vehicle did not drive according to the preset route.

[0129] S66: If the second type of vehicle is detected to be deviating from the preset route, the future driving route of the second type of vehicle is predicted.

[0130] In this embodiment of the application, since the second type of vehicle does not travel along the preset route, the future travel route of the second type of vehicle can be predicted in order for staff to handle it in advance.
