[0042] The ETC handheld detection terminal is the core equipment in the electronic toll collection system, mainly used for the issuance and detection of OBU equipment. It uses DSRC technology to communicate with the on-board radio frequency tag to ensure the security of information transmission. This technology provides physical transmission channels for highways, parking lots, and vehicle networks, and is widely used. The handheld terminal is mainly used for issuing cards, detecting faults, and inspecting vehicles. It is widely used in ETC business outlets, toll stations, and gas stations. In actual applications, the CPC card loss rate is high, and some car owners deliberately discard the cards to evade charges, resulting in toll losses.

[0043] To this end, an embodiment of the present invention provides a portable handheld detection terminal that can be installed on fast-moving transportation vehicles such as vehicles or low-altitude drones. It can automatically detect whether there are lost cards through DSRC technology and quickly estimate the location of the card, thereby efficiently helping customers locate and recover lost cards.

[0044] Specifically, see Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic block diagram of a portable handheld detection terminal provided by an embodiment of the present invention. A portable handheld detection terminal includes: a control unit 10, a sound display module 20 and a DSRC data processing module 30, wherein the control unit 10 is connected to the sound display module 20 and the DSRC data processing module 30 respectively; wherein the DSRC data processing module 30 calculates the location information of a card through a 5.8 GHz radio frequency channel, a dual-element microstrip antenna and a phase difference solution method, and the location information includes an incident angle and a distance.

[0045] In this embodiment, the control unit 10 is the core of the system and is responsible for coordinating and managing the operations of all other modules. It communicates with the DSRC data processing module 30 to obtain transaction information or card detection information, and controls the sound display module 20 for user interaction (such as display information and sound prompts).

[0046] The sound display module 20 is connected to the control unit 10 and is used to provide visual and auditory feedback to the user, ensuring that the operator can intuitively understand the equipment status and results.

[0047] The DSRC data processing module 30 is a key part for realizing wireless communication and position calculation, and is composed of a 5.8GHz radio frequency channel, a dual-element microstrip antenna, and a phase difference calculation method. The task of this module is to receive signals from external DSRC devices (such as on-board units OBU or cards), analyze them, and calculate the target's position information based on the received data, including but not limited to the incident angle θ and the distance S.

[0048] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The above-mentioned DSRC data processing module 30 includes a DSRC data processing control unit 31, a first 5.8G radio frequency unit 32, a second 5.8G radio frequency unit 33, a first low intermediate frequency unit 34, a second low intermediate frequency unit 35, a synchronous local oscillator 36 and a dual-pin element microstrip antenna unit 37; the synchronous local oscillator 36 is connected to the first 5.8G radio frequency unit 32 and the second 5.8G radio frequency unit 33;

[0049] The first 5.8G RF unit 32 and the second 5.8G RF unit 33 are respectively used to receive and demodulate the RF signal from the dual-element microstrip antenna unit, and convert the RF signal into an intermediate frequency signal through a mixing process; the first low intermediate frequency unit 34 and the second low intermediate frequency unit 35 are respectively used to amplify and filter the intermediate frequency signals from the first 5.8G RF unit 32 and the second 5.8G RF unit 33; the DSRC data processing control unit 31 is used to receive the signals output by the first low intermediate frequency unit 34 and the second low intermediate frequency unit 35 to calculate the phase difference between the two signals, and solve the incident angle and distance of the signal based on the phase difference.

[0050] Specifically, in the transmit mode, one of the channels T1 or T2 can be selected to send signals; in the receive mode, two receive channels are used simultaneously. Each receive channel contains a 5.8G RF transceiver with low intermediate frequency output, a low noise amplifier (LNA), a mixer and a low-pass filter to convert and demodulate the received RF signal. In order to ensure the same phase between the two receive channels, the system generates two equal-phase local oscillator signals L, which are input to the two RF channels respectively.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, the dual-element microstrip antenna unit 37 includes two microstrip arrays R1 and R2 with a fixed spacing, which are used to receive radio frequency signals. When the radio frequency signal returned by the card is received, a phase difference PD will be generated on the two elements due to the path difference.

[0052] like Figure 4 As shown, the phase difference PD is calculated using the formula PD = ω*TD = 2πf*TD = 2π*(c / λ)*d*sin(θ) / c = 2π*d*sin(θ) / λ, where d is the distance between the two array elements, θ is the incident angle, and λ is the wavelength of the 5.8GHz signal. The incident angle θ is then determined by θ = arcsin(PD / (2π·n)), where n is a fixed value related to the antenna design.

[0053] According to the time difference t1 of the microwave signal from the card to the antenna and the known propagation speed v, the distance S from the card to the antenna can be calculated by the formula S=t1·v.

[0054] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The first 5.8G RF unit 32 includes a 5.8G RF transceiver, a low noise amplifier, a mixer, and a low pass filter connected in sequence; the second 5.8G RF unit 33 includes a 5.8G RF transceiver, a low noise amplifier, a mixer, and a low pass filter connected in sequence; the 5.8G RF transceiver is connected to the dual-pin element microstrip antenna unit 37; the low pass filter of the first 5.8G RF unit 32 is connected to the first low intermediate frequency unit 34; the low pass filter of the second 5.8G RF unit 33 is connected to the second low intermediate frequency unit 35.

[0055] The first 5.8G radio frequency unit 32 corresponds to the first 5.8G radio frequency channel; the second 5.8G radio frequency unit 33 corresponds to the second 5.8G radio frequency channel.

[0056] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The synchronous local oscillator 36 is connected to the mixer of the first 5.8G radio frequency unit 32 and the mixer of the second 5.8G radio frequency unit 33 respectively.

[0057] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The first low intermediate frequency unit 34 and the second low intermediate frequency unit 35 respectively include an intermediate frequency amplifier and an intermediate frequency filter connected in sequence; the intermediate frequency amplifier of the first low intermediate frequency unit 34 is connected to the low pass filter of the first 5.8G radio frequency unit 32; the intermediate frequency amplifier of the second low intermediate frequency unit 35 is connected to the low pass filter of the second 5.8G radio frequency unit 33; the intermediate frequency filter is connected to the DSRC data processing control unit 31.

[0058] The first low intermediate frequency unit 34 corresponds to the first low intermediate frequency channel; the second low intermediate frequency unit 35 corresponds to the second low intermediate frequency channel.

[0059] In one embodiment, see Figure 3 The above-mentioned dual-element microstrip antenna unit includes two microstrip arrays with a fixed spacing.

[0060] Specifically, the DSRC data processing module 30 uses advanced radio frequency and signal processing technologies to ensure efficient and accurate data transmission and reception. Specifically, both 5.8GHz radio frequency channel 1 and channel 2 are equipped with a 5.8GHz radio frequency transceiver with low intermediate frequency output, a low noise amplifier (LNA), a mixer, and a low-pass filter. These components work together to perform frequency conversion demodulation on the received signals of their respective channels. In addition, each radio frequency channel also has a built-in power amplifier (PA) and a ground intermediate frequency 5MHz filter to further optimize the signal quality.

[0061] The first 5.8 GHz RF channel: responsible for frequency conversion demodulation of the signal received by channel 1.

[0062] The second 5.8GHz RF channel is responsible for the frequency conversion demodulation of the signal received by channel 2.

[0063] In order to enhance the quality of the IF signal, two independent low IF channels are set up in the system:

[0064] The first low intermediate frequency channel includes an intermediate frequency amplifier and an intermediate frequency filter, which are used to amplify and filter the intermediate frequency signal S12 obtained from the 5.8 GHz radio frequency channel 1, so as to generate a clearer signal S13.

[0065] The second low intermediate frequency channel is also configured with an intermediate frequency amplifier and an intermediate frequency filter, and is used to process the intermediate frequency signal S22 from the 5.8 GHz radio frequency channel 2 and output the processed signal S23.

[0066] The synchronous local oscillator 36L is a key component of the terminal. It can generate two equal-phase RF local oscillator signals, which is essential to ensure the consistency and accuracy of the received signal. In the transmission mode, one of the T1 or T2 channels is selected as the transmission path by default, and the DSRC data processing control unit 31 directly controls the 5.8 GHz RF channel 1 and the 5.8 GHz RF channel 2, as well as the synchronous local oscillator 36 to perform the data transmission task.

[0067] In receiving mode, the DSRC signal is received through a special dual-element microstrip antenna unit. The antenna unit includes two independent and fixed-spacing microstrip arrays R1 and R2, which receive the RF signals S11 and S21 replied from the card respectively. Subsequently, these signals are assisted by the externally provided synchronous local oscillator 36 signal L, and the RF signals are converted into intermediate frequency signals S12 and S22 using the mixers in their respective 5.8GHz RF channels. These two intermediate frequency signals then enter the corresponding low intermediate frequency channels for further amplification and filtering, and finally obtain S13 and S23 signals. The DSRC data processor unit M will perform in-depth data analysis and phase resolution on these two intermediate frequency signals to determine the incident direction of the received signal and calculate the coordinate information of the DSRC signal.

[0068] See also Figure 4 In this system, the device uses the 5.8GHz RF band, and the DSRC module of the handheld terminal will actively transmit RF signals to wake up the card and receive its feedback signals. When the card is in a fixed position, it will return RF signals, which are received by antenna elements R1 and R2, thereby generating a phase difference. Assuming that the vertical direction of the antenna is 0 degrees, the direction of electromagnetic wave propagation is shown by the arrow, and the RF signal returned by the card has an incident angle θ, with a positive angle on the left and a negative angle on the right. The dotted line represents the electromagnetic wave plane, and the path difference is 0 at all positions on the plane. However, when the signal reaches the antenna, the signal received by the right element R2 will travel a longer path, so the signal will have a longer propagation time and a larger phase difference.

[0069] The calculation formula of phase difference PD is as follows: First, the time delay TD of microwave signal reaching R2 relative to R1 is: Where d is the fixed distance between antenna elements and c is the speed of light.

[0070] The phase difference PD can be calculated from the time delay: Among them, λ is the wavelength of the 5.8GHz signal, and f is the frequency of the signal (5.8GHz). According to the formula, the expression of the phase difference is finally obtained: It can be further expressed as: Where n is a known fixed value representing the antenna beam grating lobe suppression ratio.

[0071] Thus, the relationship between the calculated phase difference and the incident angle θ is: PD = 2π·n·sin(θ);

[0072] The DSRC data processing unit 31 calculates the actual phase difference PD based on the received two intermediate frequency signals S13 and S23 through signal acquisition and internal processing. Ideally, the phase difference between two adjacent antennas should be fixed. The incident angle θ can be calculated through the phase difference PD: Wherein, PD is the phase difference calculated by the DSRC data processing unit 31, and n is the beam grating lobe suppression ratio of the antenna.

[0073] In addition, the distance S from the card signal to the dual-element microstrip antenna unit 37 can be calculated through the time difference t1 between the transmission and reception of the microwave signal and the propagation speed of the RF signal in the air: S=t1·v; where v is the propagation speed of the RF signal in the air.

[0074] In summary, the terminal of this embodiment not only provides an accurate card location positioning function, but also greatly improves the efficiency of users finding lost cards. By introducing an innovative phase difference solution method, the terminal of this embodiment can achieve fast and accurate card location detection in a complex environment, which is of great significance for improving the user experience and service level of the ETC system. In addition, this technical solution also helps to expand the application scenarios of DSRC technology, such as applications within cities or other areas that support 5.8GHz payment, thereby bringing higher economic benefits and social value.

[0075] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 The above-mentioned portable handheld detection terminal also includes a power module 40, a PSAM security module 50, a storage module 60, and a bus communication interface 70; the power module 40, the PSAM security module 50, the storage module 60, and the bus communication interface 70 are respectively connected to the control unit 10.

[0076] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 The above-mentioned portable handheld detection terminal also includes a positioning module 80; the positioning module 80 is connected to the control unit 10.

[0077] Specifically, the power management module supports multiple power input modes, including but not limited to vehicle power and standard adapter power, to ensure that the device can obtain stable power supply in different environments. It provides the required operating voltage for various components of the system, such as the control unit 10, the positioning module 80, the PSAM security module 50, and the sound display module 20, to ensure the stable operation of each module.

[0078] The PSAM security authentication module is specially designed to install an external PSAM card to enhance the security of the DSRC module during data transmission. By implementing a powerful encryption and decryption algorithm, it not only protects the security of the sent and received data, but also ensures the authenticity and reliability of the transaction.

[0079] The data storage module 60 is used to store various data records generated in daily operations to facilitate subsequent data analysis and maintenance management. It is responsible for saving the configuration files required for card positioning to ensure that the latest setting parameters can be accurately loaded each time it is started.

[0080] The positioning service module integrates global satellite navigation systems such as Beidou or GPS, enabling the controller to accurately obtain the location coordinates of the current device, which is particularly important for application scenarios that require precise geographic information, such as vehicle location confirmation in the Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) system.

[0081] The bus communication interface provides a variety of communication port options, such as Ethernet interface or serial interface, for efficient communication with external devices. These interfaces support function selection, protocol level control, and information reading, which enhances the interoperability and expansion capabilities of the system.

[0082] The control unit 10 is responsible for coordinating and managing the logical relationships between all peripheral modules. It not only interacts with the DSRC module to obtain the transaction details of the on-board unit (OBU) or the detection results of the composite pass card (CPC), but also controls the sound display module 20 to emit a prompt sound or display relevant information according to actual needs to improve the user experience.

[0083] The DSRC data processing unit focuses on the data transmission and reception control of the 5.8GHz radio frequency channel, and has the ability to demodulate the signal received from the intermediate frequency channel, especially the accurate analysis of phase information. The unit uses advanced algorithms to calculate the specific location coordinates of the card, thus providing reliable technical support for location-based services (LBS).

[0084] In summary, the portable handheld detection terminal realizes a one-stop solution from power supply, security encryption, data storage to positioning services and communication interfaces through a carefully designed combination of functional modules. It is particularly suitable for application in the field of intelligent transportation, such as ETC automatic payment system, V2X vehicle networking platform, etc., which greatly promotes the improvement of modern urban traffic management efficiency and service level.

[0085] The above-mentioned portable handheld detection terminal can realize automatic card detection through DSRC technology by setting a control unit 10, a sound display module 20 and a DSRC data processing module 30; the location information of the card, including the incident angle and distance, is calculated by using a 5.8GHz radio frequency channel, a dual-element microstrip antenna and a phase difference solution method. The device can be installed on fast-moving vehicles such as vehicles or low-altitude drones to detect whether there are lost cards in real time; through accurate location information estimation, the terminal can quickly determine the location of the lost card; it helps to efficiently recover lost cards and enhance the customer's convenient experience.

[0086] In one embodiment, see Figure 5 , also provides a control method using the above-mentioned portable handheld detection terminal, including steps S110 to S150.
