[0002] In the context of accelerating the construction of a strong transportation country, the construction of "unmanned, intelligent, and fast passage" in the construction of smart highway toll collection has become a development trend. With the development of the times and the advancement of science and technology, new technologies and equipment such as ETC non-stop toll collection system and toll collection robots have been continuously put into use. While the unmanned toll station greatly optimizes the public travel experience, it also significantly reduces the dependence on manual labor. The traditional toll collection method faces the serious challenge of "unmanned toll collection". The unmanned toll station adopts a narrow island and island-free design. While improving the traffic capacity of the toll plaza, it also greatly increases the openness of the driver's field of vision, which can effectively reduce the occurrence of accidents. The unmanned management of the highway toll collection system can greatly improve the toll collection efficiency and service quality. The traditional highway toll collection method requires manual on-site toll collection, with a large number of personnel, high work intensity, and easy errors. The unmanned management replaces the manual toll booth through the automatic toll collection system and advanced scientific and technological means, realizing the automation of the entire process, which not only improves the toll collection efficiency, but also reduces labor costs.

Personnel are required to handle various special situations in the toll station lanes, and the centralized monitoring control room cannot view the on-site equipment page in real time to handle special situations and remote commuting. In order to assist the centralized monitoring control room to quickly handle special situation vehicles and remote commuting, realize true unmanned operation, and ensure barrier-free passage of vehicles at toll stations, we have developed an unmanned remote auxiliary device for toll stations.

[0025] The optical transceiver module is inserted into the three-layer switch and the multi-computer switch module to convert the optical signal into the electrical signal when receiving and convert the electrical signal into the optical signal when sending.

[0026] The lane-end multi-computer switching module is installed next to the lane industrial computer. The multi-computer switching module and the lane industrial computer are connected together with video signal lines, audio lines and USB control lines. The lane's multi-computer switching module encapsulates signals such as video signals, audio signals and USB control signals into data packets, and at the same time decodes the data packets of the mouse and keyboard in the centralized monitoring room to restore the USB control signal.

[0027] The three-layer switches are installed in the lanes, computer rooms, and centralized monitoring rooms respectively. Through the three-layer functional data exchange of the three-layer switches, the encoded video signals, audio signals, and USB control signals are transmitted to the centralized monitoring room "thousands of miles away". At the same time, the control signals from the centralized monitoring room are transmitted back to the lane control industrial computer.

[0032] Working principle: The video signal, audio signal, USB control signal and other signals output by the industrial computer in the toll station lane are encapsulated into data packets through the lane multi-computer switching module, and then converted into optical signals through the optical transceiver module on it and transmitted to the three-layer switch. By configuring the data of the three-layer switch, long-distance transmission to the centralized monitoring room is realized. The multi-computer switching module in the centralized monitoring room restores the signal and connects it to the video switch. The corresponding lane is selected by remote control, and the mouse and keyboard are used for reverse transmission to control the lane industrial computer and the corresponding lane equipment.
