Background technology
Urban mass-transit system and people live closely bound up, and public transport will be the main vehicles of most of city dwellers in present and even considerable time.For the passenger, a very big demand is to know which station the bus that will wait for has driven at this moment; Bus every station driver all can operate accordingly, plus-minus station, call out the stops, this message reflection the current position of public transport, can pass to service centre by the existing wireless network of most of buses, by service centre it is handled, stores; In mobile phone very general today, the passenger can obtain the public transport positional information with SMS mode or manual service inquiry service centre.
Current wireless network has ripe 2G network, and emerging 3G communication network is also arranged.These networks have very high coverage rate, and the bandwidth demand that provides enough the present invention to use.They all are to the invention provides a ready-made communication infrastructure.
The function of service centre is exactly that the station information of the current firm process of each bus of real time record and this write down information such as already present time, accept the user inquiring request, key message is extracted in the solicited message analysis, returns Query Result through database search to the user.Set up the database that server supports a record public transport positional information simply, exactly.
Summary of the invention
The present invention seeks to provides a kind of inquiring system for car that waits simply and easily to bus passenger.The user who waits for bus AT STATION, even the user is not AT STATION as long as send the public transport train number that will take by SMS to certain service centre, (most of public transport are same routes to this bus travel direction, come and go and to travel, public transport for one-way line, travel direction is a redundant information), the station of desiring to get on the bus, will be very fast the accurate answer of acquisition service centre, this answer comprises the temporal information that exist in service centre from the station information of the firm process of the nearest public transport of passenger and this information this moment at least, this time means that this public transport just passed through the time at station in the return information concerning the user.Thus, the passenger can probably predict the time of advent of public transport, considers the factor that public transport has traffic congestion to incur loss through delay, and the passenger also can repeatedly inquire about if needed, to obtain the state of current public transport.
The system constructing cost of this invention is low, and very big actual application value is arranged, the life that can greatly be convenient for people to, and outstanding behaviours exists:
A) can greatly alleviate the irritable psychology that the passenger waits for bus
B) people can more reasonably arrange the travel time by this inquiry
C), provide rational basis for whether changing the vehicles in some urgent occasion
D) provide certain normative reference for the public transit system scheduling
E) need not any location technology, cost reduces greatly.The positional information of returning is unit with the station, but by returning the information life period of service centre, can improve position precision.
F) to the user, the method for use is a SMS, so this application can be suitable for all cellphone subscribers, service centre also can support a spot of manual telephone system inquiry certainly.
E) because the route of people's daily routines is often identical, want information inquiring identical at every turn, can in mobile phone, store the message template of an inquiry, realize key inquiry.
To achieve these goals, concrete steps of the present invention are as follows:
The first step: easy vehicle-mounted module is installed on bus;
The public transport in current most cities has had the function of calling out the stops, and the realization of this function is realized by manual trigger switch that by driver or crew the liquid crystal display screen in the car shows corresponding station and is broadcast to passenger in the car then; The public transport in most of cities has also had Wireless Telecom Equipments such as GPS, radiovision.Based on present situation as above, only need carry out very small-sized function and embed, just can pass to service centre to the information that current public transport arrives a certain station by wireless network, for inquiry.Even function can not realize embedding, an independent information sending module cost is also very low.
Second step: obtain the support of wireless carriers, realize message transmitting procedure;
The each information data amount that produces of vehicle-mounted module is very little, and for a public transport, transmission of Information is not ceaselessly to carry out, and transmission primaries just after only need arriving at a station is so require lower to the bandwidth of network etc.Current wireless communication technology is very ripe, and each mobile operator can both provide this service.
Third step: service centre is to the processing of data message;
Bus information by wireless network transmissions is aggregated into service centre, and service centre safeguards that according to certain algorithm a real-time database stores the positional information of all public transport, inquires about for user terminal.
The 4th step: user mobile phone terminal provides specific Query Information;
The mobile phone terminal platform is not had specific (special) requirements, and it is just passable to possess SMS.The information that only needs the user time to provide in inquiry comprises public transport train number, the station of target, bus travel direction such as desire and get final product, and its inquiry concrete form is not fixed, and the back will be done further explanation to this.
