The present invention relates to a case where a payment is not made at the time of payment of a toll settlement terminal (Onboard Unit; OBU) for a subscriber vehicle to automatically settle a road toll by wireless communication with a toll gate automatic toll collection system. The present invention relates to a system and method for collecting unpaid road tolls using a mobile communication terminal configured to automatically collect unpaid road tolls using a subscriber's mobile communication terminal.

Conventional toll collection methods for toll roads, such as expressways, require the toll collector to collect the toll manually at the exit toll gate after receiving a prepaid card or pass at the toll gate, or in some sections, the toll collector manually at the road toll gate. Tolls are being collected. This is caused by vehicle congestion due to vehicles stopping at the toll gate for toll collection, and there are various problems such as increase in labor costs due to the arrangement of the toll collector and expenditure due to issuance of prepaid cards or toll tickets.

Therefore, to solve the above problems and to minimize the inconvenience and traffic delays caused by toll collection, and to introduce the intelligent transportation system for the purpose of computerizing toll collection, toll gates are automatically collected at toll gates in some sections of the expressway. A toll payment terminal (On Board Unit, hereinafter referred to as "OBU") is installed in a vehicle to install a wireless transmission / reception system for the automatic payment of tolls by the wireless transmission / reception system and the wireless communication method. In addition, a Hi-pass (HIGHPASS) system has been implemented to automatically collect tolls.

The subscriber OBU communicates with a radio transceiver of the toll automatic toll collection system, which is installed at a toll gate, for example, by using an infrared or RF method, to provide a high pass card (for example, card identification information and current charge amount). Wirelessly transmits information to the wireless transmission / reception system side, calculates tolls from the recharge amount of the high pass card based on the charging information (for example, tolls, etc.) transmitted wirelessly from the wireless transmission / reception system side, and recharges the new amount. After the update is made to the high pass card in the amount of money, the toll settlement result information (for example, the renewed charge amount, etc.) is wirelessly transmitted to the wireless transmission / reception system. Subsequently, the subscriber OBU forwards and stores the settlement processing response information (eg, receipt information, etc.) that has been wirelessly transmitted from the wireless transmission / reception system side to the high pass card.

This series of processes are performed in the wireless communication section with the toll gate automatic transmitting / receiving system installed in the toll gate, and even if the vehicle equipped with the subscriber's OBU passes through the toll gate at high speed, the wireless communication section with the toll automatic transmitting / receiving system is installed within the toll gate. Should be able to settle the tolls in the subscriber's OBU.

However, in the conventional high-pass system configured as described above, when the vehicle equipped with the subscriber OBU passes through the toll gate, the balance of the high-pass card remains less than the toll, and the toll is not collected. If it is not done, the rear of the vehicle is photographed, the license plate is read from the photograph, and the owner of the vehicle is billed for an unpaid toll by mail. As such, reading a license plate of a vehicle photographed by a person for an unpaid toll and sending an unpaid bill to an address of a vehicle owner corresponding to the vehicle number causes a large economic loss, which consumes a lot of manpower and time. There is a problem.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and a toll settlement terminal for an on-vehicle vehicle (On Board Unit) for automatic payment of road tolls by a wireless communication system for toll gate automatic toll collection and wireless communication. If the payment is not made at the time of payment of the tolls by wireless communication, the mobile communication terminal can automatically collect the tolls of unpaid roads by using the subscriber's mobile communication terminal, thereby reducing the effort required to collect the unpaid tolls.
