METHOD OF DETERMINING THE USE OF AT LEAST ONE TOLL ROAD SECTION

摘要

A method of detecting whether at least one toll road section is being used by a vehicle (FAR), wherein the position of said vehicle (FAR) is determined by means of at least one position calculating system (POS) and the determined position is used to ascertain whether the road section being used is a toll road section, and wherein said vehicle (FAR) has a transmitter/receiver unit (SEE) that is adapted to exchange data (DAT) with a cellular radio network (FUN), and to each cell (ZEL) of said radio network (FUN) at least one cell identifier (ZID) for identifying each of the cells (ZEL) is assigned, wherein at least one cell (ZEL) of the radio network (FUN) is assigned to a toll ,rod and when there is at least partial failure of the position calculating system (POS) said at least one cell ID (ZID) is used to ascertain whether the road section being used by said vehicle (FAR) is a toll road section, characterized in that each cell assigned to a toll road section is weighted by a weight characteristic of the relevance of said cell for recognition of said toll road section and said cell ID is transmitted to said transmitter/receiver unit (SEE) of said vehicle (FAR).
