DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] References to "embodiments" in this application mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the application. The appearance of this phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it constitute an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is understood, both explicitly and implicitly, by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described in this application may be combined with other embodiments.

[0021] See also Figure 1 This embodiment provides a traffic information transmission method based on a dual-mode communication network, comprising the following steps: S1. Collect the location information of vehicles and road facilities through radio frequency identification technology to obtain the original signal.

[0022] In this embodiment, radio frequency identification technology is implemented using an RFID intelligent system. The RFID intelligent system is provided with a vehicle-mounted mobile tag unit, a multi-channel reader array, a reader processing center, a switch, and a distributed antenna. The vehicle-mounted mobile tag unit includes a microcontroller, which stores a unique identity identification code and a positioning information storage module.

[0023] When a vehicle enters the sensing area, the multi-channel reader array transmits a specific frequency to activate the on-board mobile tag unit. The on-board mobile tag unit obtains an induced current through electromagnetic induction and uses the induced current to activate the microcontroller of the on-board mobile tag unit. The microcontroller establishes an encrypted communication link with the multi-channel reader array and executes the identity authentication protocol.

[0024] Specifically, the activated microcontroller establishes an encrypted communication link with the multi-channel reader array and executes a triple authentication protocol: 1. Challenge-response verification: The reader generates a random number as a challenge value, and the tag uses a pre-stored key to perform encryption operations and returns a response value; 2. Anti-replay attack: A dynamic encryption seed is generated for each session to ensure that the communication content cannot be tampered with; 3. Black and white list verification: The reader compares the tag ID with the background database in real time to filter out illegal or cancelled tags.

[0025] After authentication, the vehicle-mounted mobile tag unit and the fixed reference tag network will transmit the stored information to the multi-channel reader array using backscatter modulation technology. The reader processing center will encrypt the information and transmit it to the command center through a switch to obtain positioning information.

[0026] It's worth noting that the multi-channel reader array uses four channels and supports MIMO technology. Scattering modulation technology modulates stored information onto the carrier transmitted by the multi-channel reader array. The multi-channel reader array uses the AES-256 algorithm to encrypt and encapsulate the original data, which is then transmitted to the edge computing node via the RS-485 / TCP / IP interface through the switch. The stored information includes the vehicle's VIN, owner's identity, and payment account.

[0027] S2. Execute edge-cloud collaborative computing to filter and calculate the original signal.

[0028] This embodiment implements edge-cloud collaborative processing. First, for edge layer processing, the roadside unit (RSU) is equipped with an NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier edge computing module. Kalman filtering is performed on the raw signal to eliminate multipath interference. Second, real-time data from the edge node and the cloud platform is synchronized via a Kafka message queue. Coordinates are calculated using a weighted centroid algorithm or a fingerprint positioning algorithm to restore the vehicle trajectory and detect and record abnormal behavior. This processed data is then transmitted to the vehicle positioning function, where a data fusion module integrates multi-source positioning information to generate the final positioning result. Path planning utilizes the Dijkstra algorithm to generate a set of candidate paths (up to three) and annotate them with congestion probabilities. The fingerprint positioning algorithm loads a pre-built RSSI-to-position mapping table and calculates initial coordinates using a K-nearest neighbor (K=5) algorithm. The weighted centroid algorithm integrates data from adjacent readers, achieving a final positioning error of ≤0.8m.

[0029] S3. Build a dynamic dual-mode communication network based on vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-to-road communication technologies, and use positioning calculation results to perform global traffic situation prediction and path planning.

[0030] In this embodiment, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication uses the IEEE 802.11p protocol, with a communication range of 300 meters and support for periodic safety message (BSM) broadcasts. The dynamic routing protocol, based on an improvement to AODV, incorporates the vehicle velocity vector as a routing metric to reduce the probability of link disconnection. The roadside units (RSUs) deploy DSRC modules operating in the 5.9 GHz frequency band and supporting a 10 Mbps data rate. Communication time slots are allocated using a TDMA mechanism, with dedicated time slots reserved for emergency vehicles (20 ms, with the highest priority). These two communication modes form a dual-mode communication network.

[0031] Through the dual-mode communication network, global traffic situation prediction and path planning are performed based on positioning calculation results, including the following steps: S31. Build a self-organizing mobile vehicle network, where each vehicle acts as a network node and has routing and forwarding capabilities. S32, using carrier sense multiple access / collision avoidance mechanism to achieve communication link management; S33, support real-time exchange of dynamic driving parameters between vehicles, including speed, position and acceleration; S34. Deploy a dedicated short-range communication module on the roadside unit to establish a two-way communication link with the vehicle terminal; S35, using a time division multiple access protocol to manage communication time slots between roadside equipment and multiple vehicles; S36, supports the transmission of traffic signal phase information, variable information board content and event warning data.

[0032] In addition, this embodiment utilizes a multimedia video surveillance system and an on-board integrated navigation module; the module integrates an inertial measurement unit (IMU) and a satellite positioning receiver. The multimedia video surveillance system collects road traffic flow image data, employs computer vision algorithms for vehicle type identification and traffic event detection, and verifies the spatiotemporal correlation between the video analysis results and radio frequency positioning data. The module also incorporates an adaptive Kalman filter for multi-sensor data fusion and a road digital map matching model to correct positioning drift errors. The combination of this multimedia video surveillance system and the module further improves vehicle positioning accuracy and the effectiveness of abnormal behavior identification.

[0033] S4. Provide information transmission service to the target user terminal.

[0034] In this embodiment, dynamic route guidance instructions and estimated arrival times are pushed to vehicle terminals, lane-by-lane traffic flow statistics are provided to road operating units, and dedicated communication time slots and signal priority control instructions are pre-allocated to emergency vehicles.

[0035] In typical scenarios, this embodiment can achieve the functions of underground parking lot management and highway vehicle-road coordination. For example, in the underground parking lot management scenario, (1) reverse car search: the user enters the license plate number through the mobile phone APP, and the system retrieves the most recent RFID positioning record (accuracy ±1m); (2) parking space guidance: the LED indicator changes color according to the number of remaining parking spaces (green > 80%, yellow 50%-80%, red < 50%).

[0036] It is also implemented in the highway vehicle-road collaboration scenario: (1) Abnormal weather warning: RSU detects visibility through millimeter-wave radar, and triggers a speed limit instruction when it is ≤100m, and sends it to the user terminal through V2I; (2) Platoon driving: The leading vehicle broadcasts acceleration instructions through V2V, and the following vehicles use PID control to maintain the distance between vehicles (target distance 15m, error ±0.5m).

[0037] It should be noted that, for the sake of convenience, the aforementioned method embodiments are all expressed as a series of action combinations, but those skilled in the art should know that the present invention is not limited to the described order of actions, because according to the present invention, certain steps can be performed in other orders or simultaneously.

For ease of illustration, the schematic diagram of the embodiment of the dual-mode communication network-based traffic information transmission system only shows the parts relevant to the embodiment of the present invention.
