ETC(Electronic Toll Collection), translated from Chinese, means electronic toll collection, which is an automatic toll collection for highways or bridges. The vehicle-mounted electronic tag installed on the windshield of the vehicle communicates with the microwave antenna on ETC lane of the toll station in a special short distance, and the computer networking technology is used to make background settlement with the bank, so that the vehicle can pay the highway or bridge toll without stopping.
2065438+May 19, Dai Dongchang, vice minister of the Ministry of Transport, said that after canceling the provincial toll stations, it is necessary to ensure that the utilization rate of ETC reaches over 90% before the end of the year and ensure the smooth operation of the whole road network.
On April 28, 2020, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Transport said that after the provincial toll stations of expressways were cancelled at the beginning of the year, vehicles did not display the full toll amount in the ETC exit lane, but provided the cost inquiry service by pushing information or bills, but some people made comments on this. In order to meet the public demand, local transportation authorities and highway management units organized and implemented the ETC "Feixian" project. All the exit lanes of the expressway can display all the tolls for this trip.
Introduction:
Electronic toll collection (ETC) is one of the service functions of intelligent transportation system, which is especially suitable for use in highway or bridge and tunnel environment with heavy traffic. There is a special ETC toll collection channel at the expressway toll collection office. As long as the owner installs an induction card on the front windshield of the vehicle and pre-stores the fees, there is no need to pay or stop manually when passing through the toll booth, and the high-speed toll will be automatically deducted from the card, which can realize automatic charging. This charging system charges less than two seconds for each car, and the capacity of the charging channel is 5 to 10 times that of the manual charging channel. The use of automatic electronic toll collection system can make expressway toll collection move towards paperless and cashless management, fundamentally put an end to the loss of toll tickets and solve the financial management confusion in expressway toll collection. In addition, the implementation of fully automatic electronic toll collection system can also save capital construction costs and management costs.
The system needs to install vehicle-mounted equipment carrying vehicle information on the vehicle. When the vehicle enters the entrance of the non-stop electronic toll collection channel, the station-level equipment of the expressway data acquisition and processing system reads the vehicle information in the vehicle-mounted equipment, calls up the matching vehicle data from the database, publishes, stores the records and uploads them to the data management center of the expressway data acquisition and processing system. The data management center analyzes the passing vehicles, forms a deduction transaction and uploads it to the bank in real time, and the bank returns to the data management center in real time after completing the transaction processing.
