Abstract

See full text

A method, computer system, and non-transitory computer-readable medium storing software for performing wireless payment of road tolls from a vehicle. An in-vehicle device includes a way for a vehicle occupant to communicate input to the device, as well as a screen for outputting data to the vehicle occupant. The device communicates with a base station, exchanging various codes and data, including a method of payment for the toll selected by the vehicle occupant. Eventually, the device acquires a Gate ID code from the base station, which is then transmitted to the tollroad gate prior to the vehicle passing that tollroad gate. Codes are created using a particular described approach.
