> One, RFID technology synopsis
Radio frequency recognition technology RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Technology) is moves towards the mature one kind of non- contact type from the 80's the automatic diagnosis technology, it through radio-frequency signal automatic diagnosis goal object and gain correlation data. Says from the concept, RFID is similar to the bar code scanning, says regarding the bar code technology, it was has been attaching the encoded bar code read-write transmits read-write to the scanning to the sighting vane and the use special-purpose scanning using the photoelectricity signal the information from the linearity magnetism; But RFID uses special-purpose RFID read-write and special may attach to the sighting vane RFID unit, transmits read-write to RFID using the RF signal the information by the RFID unit. In the RFID unit carries about sighting vane each kind of related information, for example: This sighting vane name, the sighting vane transportation outset terminated the place, the relay place and the sighting vane passes through some place concrete time and so on, but also may write down such as target and so on temperature. The RFID unit, like the label, the card and so on may nimbly attach to from the vehicles to shipment chassis each kind of goods.
(1), most basic RFID system composition:
Microreader (Reader): Reads takes (sometimes also may read in) the label information equipment, may design for grasps the type or the stationary type; Antenna (Antenna): And reads taking in the label between to transmit the radio-frequency signal.
In the electronic label the general preservation has the agreement form the electronic data, in the practical application, the electronic label attaches is treating the recognition object the surface. Reading may not have the contact to read takes and distinguishes the electronic data which in the electronic label preserves, thus achieves the automatic diagnosis body the goal. The usual microreader and the computer are connected, reads the label information which takes to transmit to the computer on carries on next step of processing. (Beside above basic disposition, but also should include corresponding application software) the label (Tag): Are composed by the matching plug and the chip, each label has the only electronic code, attaches is marking the goal object on the object; Each label all has global only ID number - UID, UID is when the manufacture chip puts in ROM, is unable to revise. The user data area (DATA) is for the user depositing data, may carry on, the cover, the increase operation read-write. Read-write has three kinds to the label operation: Recognition (Identify): Reads takes UID; Reads takes (Read): Reads takes the user data; Reads in (Write): Reads in the user data
(2) RFID system principle of work:
The RFID system in the practical application, the electronic label attaches in is treating the recognition object the surface, in the electronic label preserves has the agreement form the electronic data. The microreader may not have the contact to read takes and distinguishes the electronic data which in the electronic label preserves, thus achieves the automatic diagnosis object the goal. The microreader transmits the certain frequency through the antenna the radio-frequency signal, when the label enters the magnetic field produces the induced current thus to obtain the energy, transmits information and so on own code, after is read taking to read takes and decodes delivers carries on to the computer main engine related processing.
(3) RFID system operating frequency:
The usual microreader transmits when uses the frequency is called the RFID system the operating frequency. The common operating frequency has low frequency 125kHz, 134.2kHz and 13.56MHz and so on. The low frequency system generally refers to its operating frequency to be smaller than 30MHz, the typical operating frequency includes: 125KHz, 225KHz, 13.56M and so on, these frequency applications radio frequency recognition systems generally all have the corresponding international standard to support. Its essential feature is the data quantity which the electronic label cost lower, in the label preserves less, the reading distance shorter, the electronic label contour diverse (card shape, ring-like, button shape, pen shape), the reading antenna directivity is not strong and so on.
The high frequency system generally refers to its operating frequency to be bigger than 400MHz, the typical work frequency band includes: 915MHz, 2.45GHz, 5.8GHz and so on. The high frequency system also has the multitudinous international standard in these frequency bands to support. The high frequency system essential feature is the data quantity which the electronic label and the microreader cost higher, in the label preserves bigger, the reading distance farther (may amount to several meters to several meters), the adaption object high speed movement performance is good, the contour generally is the card shape, reads the antenna and the electronic label antenna has a stronger directivity.
(4) RFID label type
The RFID label divides into the passive label (Passive tags) and the driving label (Active tags) two kinds. Driving label oneself has the battery power supply, reads/writes a distance farther time volume bigger, compares the cost with the passive label to be higher, also is called the active label, generally has the farther reading distance, the deficiency is the battery cannot for a long time use, after the energy exhausts must replace the battery. The passive electronic label after receives the microwave signal which the microreader (read-out device) sends out, works the partial microwaves conversion of energy for the direct current for oneself, generally may achieve exempts the maintenance, the cost lowers and has the very long service life very much, compared to driving label smaller also lighter, read-write distance then is nearer, also is called the passive label. Compares the active system, the passive system is away from and the adaption object velocity of movement aspect in reading slightly has the limit.
According to memory information whether is rewritten, the label is also divided into the read-only label (read only) and may the read-write label (read and write)
In the read-only label information produces when the integrated circuit soon the information reads in, later will not be able to revise, could only read by the special equipment takes; But the read-write label will preserve the information will read in its internal the storage area, will need to rewrite when also will be allowed to use the special programming or to read in the equipment to scratch writes. Generally reads in the information the time which the electronic label spends far to be bigger than reads takes the time which the electronic label information spends, reads in time which spends for second level, reading expenditure time for millisecond level.
3rd, RFID technology characteristic and superiority
RFID is an item is easy to hold controls, simple is practical also specially suitablly uses in the automated control flexible application technology, the recognition work does not need the manual intervention, it already may support the read-only working pattern also to be possible to support the read-write working pattern, also does not need to contact or the aiming; But freely works under each kind of adverse circumstance: The short distance radio frequency product did not fear the grease stains, the dust pollution and so on the bad environment, may substitute the bar code, for example uses in the factory assembly line tracks the object; Long distance radio frequency product multipurpose in transportation, the recognition distance may amount to several dozens meters, like automatic charge or recognition vehicles status and so on. Its has the unique superiority is other recognition technologies is unable to hope to attain or equal.
Mainly has following several aspects:
Reads takes the convenience quickly: The data reads takes does not need the photosource, even may penetrate the outside wrapping to carry on. The effective recognition distance is bigger, uses when brings the battery the driving label, effectively distinguishes the distance to be possible to amount to above 30 meters;
Recognition speed quick: The label as soon as enters the magnetic field, 解读 may read immediately takes information, moreover can simultaneous working many labels, the realization batch recognition;
Data capacity big: The data capacity biggest two-dimensional bar code (PDF417), are most also only can save 2,725 numerals; If contains the letter, the reserves can be less; The RFID label may need to expand according to the user to dozens of K;
The service life is long, application scope broad: Its radio traffic way, enables its to be allowed to be supposed to use in the dust, the greasy dirt contour pollution environment and the radioactive environment, moreover its enclosed packing causes its life greatly to surpass printing the bar code;
The label data may the dynamic change: May to read in the data using the programming, thus interactive entrusts with the RFID label then to take along the data file the function, moreover reads in the time to compare the printing bar code to be less;
Better security: Not only may insert or attach in the different shape, on the type product, moreover may for the label data read-write establishment password protection, thus has a higher security;
Dynamic real-time communication: The label by and 解读 carries on the correspondence with each second 50 ~ 100 frequencies, therefore so long as the RFID label is attaching the object appears in 解读 the effective recognition scope, may carry on dynamic tracing and the monitoring to its position.

Second, RFID technology in intelligent transportation domain application
Now along with the social economy development, the urbanized advancement acceleration, the population rapidly gathers to the city migration. Population, vehicles quantity unceasing growth, but limited may use the land as well as the economical essential factor restriction actually causes the urban road to expand the increase to be limited, therefore inevitable brings a series of transportation question. Now the world each place major and medium city all has the transportation problem the puzzle. The transportation will support stops up causes the people every day the massive precious time consumption in the road, the vehicle, simultaneously also caused the commercial vehicles to delay in the transportation, increased the transportation cost. The transportation 事故?also unceasingly rises, can bring the giant personnel casualty and the economic loss every year. According to the American department concerned forecast, to 2020, the economic loss which US because the traffic accident will create can surpass 150 billion US dollars every year, but the Japanese Tokyo item reason transportation will support stops up the economic loss which every year will create will be 123 billion US dollars. In order to solve day by day the serious transportation problem, the various countries' government takes each kind of measure, like imposes heavy taxes on to the automobile limits the automobile the quantity, the implementation traffic control and so on strengthens the management. But in has made each kind of attempt, after has spent the huge management cost, the transportation condition is still difficult to have fundamentally has a new look.

The people gradually realized to the transportation system is a complex comprehensive system, alone considered from the path or the vehicles angle, very will be all difficult to solve the transportation problem, will have synthesizes the vehicles and the path, considered how under the limited path resources condition, will enhance the path resources the use factor, now at last solves the question key. Meanwhile later period the information technology swift and violent development and the widespread application also has given on solution mentality since on century to provide the effective technical method support. Under such background, the intelligent transportation concept application lives, becomes the research application the hot spot.

The so-called intelligence transportation system will be refers to the advanced information technology, the electronic communication technology, the automatic control technology, the computer technology as well as the network technology and so on organically utilizes one kind which will establish to the entire transportation management system real-time, accurate, the highly effective transportation synthesis management and the control system. It is, through the system integration which is composed by certain subsystems the path, the pilot and the vehicles organically unifies in together, strengthens three between the relation. With the aid of carries on to the system intelligent technology each kind of transportation way information and the path condition the registration, the collection, the analysis, and through the long-distance communication and the information technology, real-time provides these information to the need people, strengthens the traffic safety, reduces the running time, and instruction driving route. Simultaneously the administrative personnel through gathers the vehicles, the pilot and the path real-time information enhances its management efficiency, achieves the full use transportation resources the goal.

RFID takes one kind of emerging automatic diagnosis technology, because has the long-distance range recognition, may save carries more information, reads takes the speed quickly, may the application scope be broad and so on the merit, extremely suits in the intelligent transportation and the stop control aspect uses. At present RFID already started in the transportation domain gradually to succeed the promoted application, and has obtained the good society and the economic efficiency, its application prospect identically favored for the professional. In intelligent transportation domain, RFID main application in below aspect:

(1), the electron does not stop the charge (ETC)
The electron does not stop the charge system (Electronic Toll Collection, is called ETC) is one kind uses in the road, the bridge and the tunnel electronic automatic charge system. It applies the RFID technology, carries between the electronic label through the roadside antenna and the vehicle the special-purpose short distance communication, in does not need the driver to stop adopts any operation with other charge personnel in the situation, automatically completes the charge to process the entire process. Does not stop the charge to involve the transportation infrastructure investment the recycling, also is alleviated charge station traffic jam the effective method, moreover collects fees the card amount used very in a big way in the use, therefore each country all first invests does not stop the charge system application system development, and positively promotes, at present applied in Europe and America already quite is mature, universal, our country also already in places on the such as Guangdong, Sichuan highway invested the application. Does not stop through the application the charge system to be allowed to enhance through the efficiency, prevented charge station transportation "bottleneck" the occurrence, simultaneously realizes nobody through the RFID technology for the intervention charge, effectively contained has stolen runs away the road toll, the charge personnel is derelict, follows privately cheats and so on the behavior, simultaneously reduced the management cost which the charge stood, quickly took back the infrastructure the investment.
(2) customs wharf electron car license system (EVI):
The quantity giant cargo in the harbor wharf and customs' loading and unloading, the turnover port, goes through customs, the quite major part is a method which transports with the vehicles achievement. Therefore in harbor wharf and customs intercourse vehicles multitudinous, also possibly belongs to the customs, the boating company, a ship generation of company, a goods generation of company, the port bureau, the container airfield and so on the different profession different unit, if does not adopt the unification the measure to be very difficult to dispatch the management, for goes through customs and the cargo pasts brings the very major difficulty. Uses the electronic car license management system management system which the RFID technology realizes to be able effective solution this question.
This system through to the intercourse vehicles unification management registration, provides the vehicle to carry the electronic label, and 监控?places the RFID knowledge in the key difference to read the equipment, may cause to install the electronic car license the supervising and managing vehicles when through monitors the channel, may distinguish the system accurate prompt recognition, completes the vehicles data acquisition the request. Simultaneously uses the vehicles information which information technology and so on wireless communication will gather to submit the management system management system, will complete the vehicles status the confirmation, as well as the inquiry and the statistics, function and so on dispatch. Through may effectively sharpen the customs vehicles travelling capability using the customs wharf electron car license system, the real-time statistical monitor vehicles information, prevented examines by mistake, leaks examines, enhances goes through customs the efficiency, simultaneously may prevent to organize behavior and so on larceny, attack smuggling.


(3), municipal transportation dispatch management system management system (TMS):

The vehicles dispatch management system management system is the intelligence transportation system core constituent, uses the advanced information communication technology, collects the road traffic the tendency, the static information, and carries on real-time analyzes, and according to analyzes the result to arrange the vehicles the travel route, goes on a journey the time, achieved the full use limited transportation resources, enhances the vehicles the use efficiency, simultaneously also may understand the vehicles movement situation, strengthens the vehicles the management.
The RFID technology may take traffic scheduling system information gathering the effective method, can apply in the traffic scheduling management system management system. For instance the use applies RFID to the public transportation cart yard management system management system, may realize the public transportation vehicle turnover station automatically, the information, is accurate, the long-distance range, does not stop gathering, causes the public transportation dispatcher system accurately to grasp the real-time dynamic information which the public transportation parking lot public transportation vehicle passes in and out. Through implements this system to be possible effectively to enhance the public transportation vehicle the management level, carries on the research analysis to the gathering data using the computer, may grasp the vehicles utilization rule, ceases loophole which in the vehicles management exists, realization public transportation vehicles intellectualized management, promotes the city image. Simultaneously uses RFID to have the very high efficiency as the technical method, with the whole world satellite positioning system (GPS) and so on the technology compares has the installment conveniently, the compatibility strong, the cost is low, the vehicles do not need to transform and so on the characteristic. Simultaneously some areas and the city also start RFID to apply to trash carrier vehicle, the dangerous material carrier vehicle and so on the special service vehicles dispatch and the management. Through places the electronic label on the vehicle, 监控? the laying aside knowledge reads the equipment in the specific road section to monitor the vehicles whether defers to the stipulation the route travel, when has divulges and so on the situation appears the prompt discovery accident vehicles.
(4), electronic registration management (EVR):

Since the vehicles registration registration as well as the license plate management always all has been the traffic control department's management also is with emphasis the difficulty is at, black question and so on vehicle, vacation license plate all has not throughout obtained eradicates. Perhaps but the new technology can change simply, uses the RFID technology realization vehicles electron registration management system management system is effective addressing one of this question methods. After the vehicles registration registration increase the RFID electron car license, because each label all has global only ID number - UID, UID is when the manufacture chip puts in ROM, is unable to revise, therefore may realize guards against the false function. Simultaneously the label may by the long-distance range recognition, not need to stop and to think the intervention may censor, therefore may the standard vehicles management method, strengthen to the vehicles censorship dynamics, realizes intellectualized management which the vehicles year examines, strengthens to the illegal vehicles attack dynamics. Now this system already in aspect and so on military vehicle obtained the application, has obtained the good society and the economic efficiency.

(5), calls the heavy system based on the RFID vehicles intelligence

Through called the heavy system and the long-distance range RFID automatic diagnosis technology union may realize based on the vehicles intelligence calls the heavy system. This system attached on the original name heavy management system management system has used the long-distance range RFID automatic diagnosis realization the symmetry heavy vehicles automatic diagnosis function, and automatically will gather the name heavy vehicles information merged to calls in the heavy management system management system. The application intelligence called the heavy management system management system may enhance called the heavy efficiency, reduces the vehicles to wait the examining place pause to wait for, simultaneously might effectively prevent through the vehicle number automatic diagnosis and the precise measurement artificial corrupted practices for the economic loss which brought. In addition, after the system implementation also greatly reduced staff's labor intensity and the artificial name heavy fault rate. Therefore based on the RFID vehicles intelligence called the heavy system has realized the recognition, the measurement, the monitoring perfect union. This system may nimbly apply the transportation to be very various, like heavy governs the overload in the high speed street intersection automatic name, may speed up the vehicles in the code prime commodity collection and distribution center to count the heavy speed, reduces supports stops up and so on, has the huge application value.

Third, using RFID realization stop control

The urban economy and the automobile industry rapid development, the city automobile private vehicle quantity increases sharply in particular, the huge stream of vehicles enters the city family. But because the parking lot and stops reason and so on facility construction lag, stops difficultly, the stop control difficult question also following, in some upscale communities, the enterprise, the government apparatus contradiction is in particular day by day prominent, the stop control is full of loopholes, the vehicle owner and the property and so on the stop control side dispute is unceasing. Uses the wireless radio frequency to distinguish the RFID technology union picture digital processing, the automatic control intelligent parking lot management system management system may the effective addressing above stop control question.

System characteristic

The intelligent cart yard system can effective, be accurate, the intelligence (is loaded with electronic car license vehicles) and the non- system vehicles (has not been loaded with electronic car license vehicles) the data message recognition, gathering, the recording and according to must pass on, processing, and when necessity may carry on the supplement through the corresponding manual intervention, avoids the unusual event (non- system vehicle passes in and out when) the influence, guarantees 门禁 the system to have the highly effective vehicles intelligence to allow to pass the ability, in addition through correct design, installment to the turnover parking lot system vehicles, Only must be allowed simultaneously to complete the vehicles with identical frequency on many traffic lanes not to stop pass through but mutually does not disturb.
Below RFID applies to the stop control mainly has the essential technology: The vehicle carries the electronic label; Traffic lane microwave antenna; Charge traffic lane controller; Special-purpose junction service DSRC

When this pulling-in of vehicle/门禁 antenna correspondence zone time, the antenna carries on the bidirectional data exchange by the microwave communication way and the electronic recognition card, embraces from the electronic vehicle reads takes the vehicles the related information, embraces in the driver reads takes driver's related information, automatic diagnosis electron compartment and driver card and judgement compartment are whether effective and the driver card validity, traffic lane control computer demonstration and this electronic compartment and driver card 11 material information and so on correspondences car license numbers and pilot; The traffic lane control computer will be automatic the pass time passage period, the vehicles and pilot's related information stores in the database, the traffic lane control computer basis will read the data will carry on the judgement as follows: 1st, normal card: When reads the vehicle trademark and the driver card all is legitimate, the active gate automatically opens, after the vehicles leave coil 1, active gate automatic shut-off; 2nd, has not been authorized the card: When reads the compartment or the driver card are the authorization, the system reports to the police and grasps pats the preserved picture, the activity 门闸 does not open; 3rd, does not have the truck: When vehicles trigger winding 2, when the system has not read the compartment and the driver card, the system determines for does not have the truck, the system reports to the police and grasps pats the preserved picture, the active gate does not open; 4th, illegal card: Non- this unit card, although is read the card readout, but is not this unit, the system reports to the police and grasps pats the preserved picture, the active gate does not open.

May realize the vehicles automatic diagnosis and the information management using this system, enhances the vehicles the general efficiency and the security, and the statistical vehicles difference data, facilitates the administrative personnel to carry on the dispatch, reduces administrative personnel's labor intensity, and effectively prevents the charge loophole.
