[0002] A method and system for fast contactless payment, controlled passage, and recording the presence of a mobile object on site.
[0003] The invention relates to the fields of transport, industry, security, trade, and automation of banking activities.
[0004] For example, for use in organizing high-speed access and payment on transport.
[0005] A system for providing passenger access to commuter rail transport using cashless payment is known. RU 61445 U1. The system uses a barcode reader, which allows passage, to be read from a mobile device by a validator. Disadvantages of this system include the need to hold the mobile device close to the validator, inaccuracy, and low barcode reading speed, which leads to passenger congestion and slow passage through barriers. Barcode reading time, including positioning and focusing, is 0.5 seconds.
[0006] The proposed system enables reading data from an RFID tag while passing through or driving past a reader, without additional stopping or delays at the reading location. For example, the NXP DESFire RFID tag has a data exchange rate of 106 to 848 kbps (https: / / www.neftocard.ru / articles / mifare / produkty-mifare-plus.php). For minimal identification, reading the card's W-code is sufficient. This 56-bit code requires 66 to 528 microseconds to read, allowing for 1,900 to 15,000 readings per second. Even when using more complex algorithms for working with RFID tags, such as cryptographically secure financial transactions, the speed is measured in fractions of a second. These figures significantly increase the speed of passing through or driving past a reader and expedite entry or exit into restricted areas. The contactless payment system for travel / passage (SBOI) RU 2 692 343 C1 is known.It consists, among other things, of two highly directional antennas, which create a spatial zone for radio communication with passes in close proximity to the turnstile. A photoelectric sensor helps prevent false alarms during high pass throughput. The vestibule subsystem is designed for early pass detection for the preliminary download and upload of pass counting data. The vestibule subsystem includes at least two broadly directional antennas, which create a spatial zone for radio communication with passes at a set distance of up to 12 meters from the detector frame. Disadvantages of this system include the unclear spatial zone for radio communication, even with highly directional antennas, and, as a result, the inability to accurately determine which pass is currently being communicated with.This is due to the presence of external, unpredictable electromagnetic factors, the prevailing electromagnetic environment, and various materials and electronic devices used by the pass holder during the time required for radio communication. The photoelectric sensor merely records the fact of passage, but a clear connection between this fact and the person who passed cannot be established. Disadvantages also include the high level of electromagnetic radiation required to remotely power the pass at these distances. Furthermore, the level of security, cryptographic strength, and data transfer speed during payment transactions severely limits the types of passes used and their physical parameters. For example, Mikron chips, https: / / mikron.ru / company / press-center / about-us / 7158 / . These parameters include the pass's operating range, which ranges from 0 to 150 mm. With such operating ranges, the described system is not feasible.
[0007] The proposed system eliminates these drawbacks by placing the reader on or under the surface of the RFID tag, which is located in a passerby's shoe or a vehicle's tire. In this case, the distance between the RFID reader and the RFID tag can range from 0 to 150 mm, enabling precise identification of the specific RFID tag and the necessary operations with it. The short distance between the RFID reader and the RFID tag allows for minimal electromagnetic radiation to establish radio communication. Furthermore, the introduction of a second communication channel into the proposed system, such as a BLE, GSM, or other channel, between the passerby's mobile phone and the transaction server, enables early detection and data exchange between these devices.A second communication channel can also be established using a longer-range RFID data carrier. In this case, the information from the second data carrier is preliminary due to the uncertainty of its position and the impossibility of using the cryptographic protection required for transactions due to the insufficient power supply of such a data carrier. Positioning accuracy and cryptographic protection in this communication channel combination are ensured solely by the RFID data carrier with a read / write range of up to 150 mm. This is impossible to achieve in the SBOP system, which covers the described range of up to 12 m using chips in the corresponding 13.56 MHz frequency range used for financial transactions.The use of a second reader at the entrance to the lobby, located on / under the surface along which the RFID code carrier moves, also allows for the establishment of a second channel between the transaction server and the BESH code carrier for early detection and information exchange.
[0008] The closest prototype to the claimed method and system is the "Device for Contactless Identification and Registration of Objects" (RU 188 969 U1). The device is designed to control the movement of people, vehicles, and cargo equipped with RFID tags across the boundary of a controlled area. The device consists of a cable bridge forming the boundary of the controlled area and RFID equipment mounted within it. An RFID antenna and RFID reader are housed within the cable bridge. The device is permanently installed along the path of the controlled objects so that the RFID antenna's field completely covers the controlled passage. Information from the RFID tags is read as the object moves across the cable bridge. Similar features to the claimed system include the use of CACHE antennas, CACHE tags, and the floor-mounted design. Disadvantages of this device include:
[0009] - the presence of a cable bridge with equipment housed within it on the surface along which the RFID tag carrier moves. With such a technical solution, the RFID tag carrier's movement will always slow down near the cable bridge due to the cable bridge's protruding portion, the minimum height of which is limited by the cable bridge wall thickness and the height of the embedded RFID equipment; - the size of the RFID antenna built into the cable bridge does not allow for a high-speed data exchange channel between the RFID antenna and the RFID tag, while ensuring sufficient power to the RFID tag for complex cryptographically secure operations. This is especially true when the RFID code carrier moves relative to the RFID antenna. The described device is intended only for identifying the moving RFID code carrier, i.e., obtaining a minimal amount of information from it, such as the ID number.Since the RFID antenna's field completely obscures the controlled passage, the presence of multiple RFID tags nearby, or on a single person, will lead to ambiguous reading of the RFID tag, which is unacceptable when using such a device in payment and / or control and / or access control systems. The physical implementation of this device does not provide a stable communication channel between the RFID antenna and the RFID tag for cryptographically secure financial transactions using standard 13.56 MHz frequencies, such as those used with MIFARE PLUS S banking cryptochips or similar chips from other manufacturers.
[0010] The proposed system ensures the necessary level of electromagnetic interaction between the RFID code carrier and the RFID antenna to facilitate information exchange and cryptographically secure financial transactions. This is achieved by the large surface area of the RFID reader's flat antenna, located on or beneath the surface along which the code carrier moves, and the parallelism of the RFID antenna planes of the reader and the RFID code carrier. Implementing such a reader as an RFID antenna, constructed as a thin frame (for example, but not limited to, foil, 0.1...0.5 mm in height, with an area of 100...200 sq. cm), and a thin electronics unit, 1...3 mm in height, located adjacent to it, or as a single unit, ensures the required energy and information parameters for conducting the aforementioned financial transactions.
[0011] Furthermore, the RFID antenna of the reader, using a flat coil and bent along a line at an angle of up to 90 degrees, ensures the necessary energy and data parameters between this antenna and the RFID antenna of the code carrier, which is located in a plane not parallel to the plane of movement. For example, if the RFID code carrier is located in or on the shoe but attached to the sidewall of the shoe. Or, the RFID code carrier antenna is not located in the same plane but is bent. For example, if the RFID code carrier is located on the sidewall and on the bottom of the shoe, i.e., at the transition from the insole to the sidewall, or on the sidewall of a vehicle tire, the necessary energy and data parameters for interaction between the RFID antennas can also be ensured. This cannot be achieved using a "cable bridge."
[0012] In addition, to increase the time and distance of interaction between the RFID reader and the RFID code carrier, an additional passive circuit or several circuits are used.
[0013] In addition, several implementation options are used in the proposed system to establish a second communication channel between a person or vehicle and the transaction server, necessary for confirming or executing transactions, or confirming the presence of an RFID tag at a specific location. Specifically, the channel is established between the person or vehicle's personal mobile device, or a mobile device associated with the vehicle, and the transaction server, which receives information from equipment installed at fixed locations (i.e., at the entry / exit points or at the required distance) that supports, but is not limited to, GSM and / or BLE, and / or other communication channels supported by the personal mobile device.A personal mobile device may have a dedicated software application for executing and / or confirming a transaction, and / or locating a person and / or vehicle in a specific location, and / or replenishing an e-wallet, and / or linking / unlinking RFID tags on personal mobile devices to a specific e-wallet. The channel may be established optically, through the exchange of information between the personal mobile device and a video matrix with a screen located in the stationary part of the system. The channel may be established through a facial recognition system and / or license plate recognition system, or through software using neural network technologies and identifying certain biological characteristics, gestures, signs, and special markings on a person or passing vehicle. In this case, the recognition system transmits information to the transaction server as confirmation.The channel can be established using a radio, optical, or acoustic transceiver installed in the shoe, or a mechanical device activated when the shoe is in the zone of information exchange between the KESH code carrier and the KESH reader, or, but not limited to, in close proximity to this zone. The transmitting and receiving portion of the second channel, which is stationary, receives a signal from the RFID code carrier located in / on the shoe or in / on the vehicle via the KESH reader and transmits the information to the transaction server as confirmation.
[0014] In addition, to ensure the operability of the reading device without external connections, when the exchange of information between the reading device and the transaction server occurs via non-wired communication channels, or in the absence of external power supply, the reading device is equipped with a battery, a built-in inductive charger, a converter of mechanical, acoustic, electrical, thermal, optical energy into electrical energy for the operation of the reading device and / or charging the battery.
[0015] In addition, to ensure minimal electromagnetic impact on the environment and energy savings, the reading device has sensors that activate the device's operation and respond to external mechanical and / or electrical and / or electromagnetic impact.
[0016] Additionally, to obtain more complete information about passing people and / or vehicles, the reader is equipped with weight sensors, gas or vapor sensors, and an ionizing radiation sensor. All information received from the sensors is sent to the transaction server, where it is then interpreted according to predefined algorithms.
[0017] When using the system in payment mode, special terminals are used to replenish the contents of the code carrier's CACHE, which operates in the autonomous payment card mode, or in the bank payment card mode with transaction confirmation through the bank's transaction server.
[0018] DESCRIPTION
[0019] The invention is based on the technical problem of organizing high-speed passage / transit without additional steps related to identifying a person or vehicle passing by, without the use of components requiring battery replacement, while ensuring a reliable, cryptographically secure communication protocol between a mobile RFID code carrier and the stationary part of the financial transaction system. This problem is solved taking into account requirements to prevent the exchange of viruses, microorganisms, or chemical compounds by manually holding RFID code carriers to the surface of RFID readers.
[0020] The system consists of RFID code carriers, RFID readers, microcontrollers, control controllers, computing devices for recording transactions, transaction servers, terminals for replenishing funds, communication channels and actuators.
[0021] An RFID code carrier (1) is understood to mean any version of a microprocessor device with memory that uses RFID technology as a transmitting and receiving channel without a power source.
[0022] An RFID reader (2) is a device for contactless reading and writing to / from an RFID code carrier, consisting of, but not limited to, an RFID antenna and microprocessor unit, transmitting and receiving antennas for other frequency bands, and light and sound indicators. The reader may be modular or integral, with all components located in close proximity to the antenna.
[0023] The RFID reader antenna, or the entire reader, is located on or under the surface of the floor, road, or other surface on which a person, animal, or vehicle is walking (Fig. 1).
[0024] The RFID reader's antenna is designed in one or two planes to enable reading in a space bounded by two planes, regardless of the plane in which the RFID code carrier's antenna is located (Fig. 2). In this case, the antenna is a flat coil—round, rectangular, or otherwise—bent at an angle of up to 90 degrees along a single line. The antenna can be comprised of multiple antenna modules, including those located in different planes. If the geometric arrangement of the antenna modules does not ensure their combined operation (their radiation interferes with each other), the RFID reader's control microprocessor ensures conflict-free operation of the antennas. The antenna's radiation pattern can be adjusted using additional passive or active elements to increase the reading range.Including, but not limited to, a passive circuit (10) consisting of a flat coil similar to the RFID antenna coil and a capacitor tuned to a resonant frequency with the RFID antenna. This circuit is located at a calculated distance X from the RFID antenna coil, in the direction of the RFID code carrier antenna, with the RFID antenna coil buried beneath the surface along which the RFID code carrier moves. Using such a circuit allows for focusing the reader's RFID antenna radiation, making it more efficient (Fig. 5).
[0025] The installation of the RFID code carrier on a vehicle is carried out either on one of the surfaces of the tire or on other elements of the vehicle facing the surface on which the vehicle moves (Fig. 4).
[0026] The RFID reading device, in addition to a wired connection to the control controller, has an internal electric energy battery that is recharged by means of an electrical connection to an external energy source, or by means of an inductive connection to an external and / or mobile energy source, or by means of an optical connection to an external source of ultraviolet, infrared or optical radiation, or by means of a built-in or external source of electric energy obtained by converting mechanical, thermal or other energy into electrical energy, for example, but not limited to, using piezoelectric elements, inductive, magnetic and other converters.
[0027] The RFID reading device has a low-power device activation sensor that is triggered by mechanical, optical, magnetic, electromagnetic, or other impact on the RFID reading device, or when an RFID code carrier is brought close to the antenna of the reading device, or when a source of electromagnetic radiation appears near the reading device, for example, but not limited to, Bluetooth BLE.
[0028] The RFID reader contains elements for monitoring the weight of a passing person, animal or vehicle, with subsequent transmission of this information to the transaction server (7) or other control system.
[0029] An RFID reader incorporates ionization or other radiation sensors and / or vapor or gas sensors, and / or ultrasonic or optical sensors for identifying a passing person or animal, or a passing vehicle, and then transmitting this information to the control system and / or transaction server. In cases requiring deep identification, the RFID reader is equipped with sensors for monitoring footprints and fingerprints, the tire pattern of passing vehicles, or the tread pattern of shoes. In this case, active and / or passive optical or ultrasonic sensors, or capacitive, inductive, or resistive arrays are used.
[0030] An RFID tag placed inside or on the shoe, for example, under or on the insole. It can also be placed on the lateral inner / outer surface in a plane not parallel to the shoe sole (Fig. 3).
[0031] The RFID tag is made of a flexible and durable material that can withstand repeated bending at angles of up to 60 degrees and temperature fluctuations from -65 to +80 degrees Celsius. The RFID tag's thickness does not exceed 1 mm, allowing for comfortable use inside shoes. The RFID tag's "plane" shape can vary, limited by the capabilities of the tag's antenna. The RFID tag's antenna can be bent along a single line at an angle of up to 90 degrees. The bend location is determined by calculation and / or experimentation and depends on the required read / write distance between the RFID tag and the RFID reader's antenna. The antenna's area and proportions are related to the read range.
[0032] RFID tags for vehicles can be specially protected and placed, depending on the vehicle type and shape, on either the body or on / in the tire. The primary placement criterion is the ability of an RFID reader to read the tag while the vehicle is in motion.
[0033] When a person passing near or over an RFID reader (or an animal or vehicle moving similarly) aligns the antenna of an RFID tag, either in a shoe or attached to / inside a vehicle, with the antenna of the RFID reader, energy and information are exchanged, and the transaction completed over another and / or the same communication channel is confirmed / conducted. Maximum operating range is achieved when the antenna planes of the RFID tag and RFID reader are parallel to each other. Information exchange can be either open or encrypted.
[0034] The result of this exchange can be used to control restrictive mechanisms (9), including, but not limited to, access control systems, contactless payment systems, entry and exit tracking systems, systems for monitoring the presence of an employee in a specified location and / or his movements, blocking systems and control over the management of complex and dangerous processes and mechanisms where the mandatory presence of an operator is required.
[0035] The payment and / or controlled access method and / or presence verification at a specific location involves exchanging data and completing a transaction using an RFID tag located in / on footwear, in / on a tire, or on the underside of a vehicle, with or without transaction and / or identity confirmation via another communication channel or channels. Alternatively, the transaction is completed via one of the communication channels between the RFID tag and a stationary piece of equipment, and the transaction is confirmed using an RFID tag located in / on footwear or in / on a vehicle.When organizing the second and subsequent communication channels between the smartphone (3) and / or other personal device of the user carrying the RFID code carrier, for example, but not limited to a smart watch, smart bracelet, pendant, key fob, ring, electronic tag of the AirTag type or similar, of a passing passenger or driver of a passing vehicle, other personalizing equipment, including that built into the shoes of a passing person and a transaction server, stationary channel-forming equipment is installed near the place of passage / drive and / or in the RFID reading device.
[0036] Such a channel may be, but is not limited to, a radio channel, such as Bluetooth, GSM, LoRa, WI-FI and other one-way and multi-way channels using technologies of individual electronic devices, such as BLE tags, and other personalization methods using, but not limited to, smartphones.
[0037] Such a channel may be an optical channel using smartphones or special static or dynamic tags such as QR codes, or using receiving devices, including video matrices, optical or other wavelengths, with subsequent computer processing of the received data, including, but not limited to, using software such as artificial neural networks. For example, by a facial or license plate recognition system. Or through software that detects certain biological characteristics, gestures, sounds, signs, and special markings on a person's clothing or passing vehicles. In this case, the recognition system transmits the information to the transaction server as confirmation.
[0038] Such a channel can be mechanical, electrical, acoustic, or organoleptic, for example, placing a finger on a fingerprint reader on a smartphone, recognizing an iris, or recognizing a person by a neural network through answers to questions, or through individual physical characteristics: handwriting, gait, muscle motor skills, facial expressions, breathing, heart rate, voice and its characteristics.
[0039] The channel can be established using a radio, optical, or acoustic transceiver installed in the shoe (12), or a mechanical action, activated when the shoe is in the zone of information exchange between the RFID code carrier and the RFID reader, or, but not limited to, in the immediate vicinity of this zone. The transmitting and receiving part of the second channel, either stationary and / or located in the RFID reader, upon receiving a signal from the RFID code carrier located in / on the shoe or in / on the vehicle via the RFID reader, transmits the information as confirmation via the controller (6) to the transaction server.
[0040] A shoe or vehicle contains a converter of mechanical, electrical, electromagnetic energy into electrical energy or a source of electrical energy, a transmitter and receiver of mechanical or electromagnetic signals.
[0041] A similar transceiver for mechanical or electromagnetic signals is installed in the stationary part of a vehicle entry / exit point, payment system, or restriction mechanism, such as a turnstile. In this case, when a person or vehicle comes into close proximity to the stationary transceiver, the transceiver located in the shoe or vehicle is activated, and information is exchanged, identifying the person passing through and executing and / or confirming the transaction.
[0042] Funds can be replenished for transactions using traditional methods, where funds are held in an account and the RFID code carrier(s) is part of a system in which transaction processing is centralized. Funds can also be replenished directly through cryptographically protected recording on the RFID code carrier for subsequent, decentralized transaction processing. Recording on the RFID code carrier can be accomplished either through specialized terminals (4) with a reader (5) installed at the bottom of the terminal, or using a mobile payment app for a smartphone. In this case, but not limited to, the smartphone, via its built-in NFC module, performs the necessary recording on the RFID code carrier.In this case, some of the modifiable information, such as the debit amount or the number of passengers using a specific e-wallet ID linked to a smartphone and / or RFID tag, is changed by the user, but not limited to, in the smartphone app. The smartphone or other personal device, in turn, also connects to the transaction server via hardware (8) via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GSM, or another connection. Thus, the transaction is completed in one or two stages. In the first stage, the transaction is completed by transmitting information from the RFID tag through an RFID reader to the transaction server. Funds are then debited from the account.The second option: upon approaching the passage / transit point, a smartphone app, a smartphone without an app, or another personal device connects via Bluetooth or another communication channel to the transaction server and transmits the necessary information about the payment amount, the number of passengers, etc. Confirmation of passage and, accordingly, the transaction occurs after the RFID tag has exchanged information with the transaction server via an RFID reader located at the passage / transit point. The reserved funds are then debited from the passenger's account via Bluetooth or another channel.
[0043] Payment for goods or services is carried out in a similar way; for example, transactions with a fixed cost can be carried out using the first option, and with a variable cost using the second.
[0044] At the same time, there is no contact between different payers, including indirect contact, due to the potential possibility of transmitting viruses through bank cards and smartphones placed on the payment terminal.
[0045] An example of equipment for a toll gate is shown in Fig. 7:
[0046] 1. RFID code carrier located in the shoe,
[0047] 2. RFID readers located on or under the floor plane,
[0048] 3. Mobile wearable devices,
[0049] 4. A terminal for entering entries into RFID code carriers, with an “internal” RFID reader, maintaining communication with the payment server,
[0050] 5. The “external” version of the RFID reading device of the terminal according to I.4,
[0051] 6. Controller for working with multiple RFID readers,
[0052] 7. A server for carrying out transactions or maintaining information exchange with higher-ranking equipment, 8. A WI-FI router that provides connection to all or some components of the system, including mobile wearable devices,
[0053] 9. Executive, limiting devices, turnstiles.
[0054] The structural diagram of the variant of organizing information flows during the implementation of the toll collection system is shown in Fig. 8.
[0055] A transaction or similar server contains, for each account, in addition to the classic transaction account, a list and identifiers of RFID code carriers, mobile personal devices, or other data for confirming / executing transactions associated with a specific account (Fig. 9), such as, but not limited to, ID, IMEI, UUTD, IMSI, and MSISDN. The primary difference from existing transaction schemes that confirm or execute transactions using RFID technologies is the ability to multiple-use both RFID code carriers and other individualizing technologies. This, for example, allows each pair of shoes to have a separate RFID code carrier attached to it, without the need to move it to another pair of shoes. The activity and compatibility of specific RFID code carriers and other devices for confirming / executing transactions and / or identification can be determined by the account owner via a smartphone app or other means.
[0056] When using the system in environments with increased security requirements, this technical solution allows for the simultaneous use of multiple RFID code carriers, which is ensured by the anti-collision algorithms used in RFID technologies.
[0057] The sealed design of the RFID reader allows for disinfection with the required quality and frequency.
[0058] The presence of a vehicle or person at a specific location is monitored in a similar manner (Fig. 6). An RFID reader is installed at the specific location, and if an RFID code carrier is not within the reading zone, a corresponding signal is sent to the decision-making device, such as shutting down hazardous equipment (11), which requires a constant operator.
[0059] Similarly, access to specific information resources or equipment control functions is organized depending on the RFID tag currently in place. RFID tags are entered using not only RFID readers but also specialized terminals.
[0060] The terminal is designed with the ability to establish communication between a personal mobile device or other device identifying the carrier of an RFID code carrier, including those built into shoes, clothing, a vehicle and / or other items, and a transaction server via GSM, BLE, WI-FI and other channels for entering the electronic wallet number and linking specific mobile devices and / or RFID code carriers to it.
[0061] The terminal has an RFID reader at the bottom for entering data into an RFID data carrier located in or on the shoe. Alternatively, the terminal can be equipped with a remote reader located where the RFID carrier and / or vehicle passes. The terminal's functions can be performed by any RFID reader with the necessary software and communication with the transaction server. The RFID data carrier's data can be of any nature, including, but not limited to, financial, temporal, biological, and other parameters necessary for the specific technical solution.
[0062] Implementation of the invention.
[0063] To implement the invention, it is necessary to manufacture RFID data carriers that meet the above requirements. So-called inlays, such as those from Ostcard, can be used as a base, https: / / ostcard.ru / products / inlei / . Further strengthening of the inlays with special materials, such as, but not limited to, composite laminates, will allow us to obtain RFID data carriers with the above parameters.
[0064] The NFC XL Reader, available from the online store https: / / www.shopnfc.com / , can be used as the basis for the RFID reader. It has dimensions of 178 x 178 x 6 mm. The remaining system components can be made from commercially available controllers, servers, communication devices, and other components.
