An electronic toll
collection (ETC) system is a sophisticated application that includes a group of
technologies to provide automated non-stop cashless payment of road toll at
toll plazas or toll collection center. The system works with various technology-enabled
products such as transponders, antennas, sensors, and wireless communication
devices equipped with RFID technology. The vehicles are charged toll, as they
drive through the toll gates, by means of various wireless communication
devices installed at toll gates and system devices mounted on the vehicle. The
vehicle do not have to stop to pay the toll. The ETC system helps to reduce
traffic congestion on highways and the traffic management process is also
streamlined.
