11. 11 Technologies for Electronic Toll Collection Microwave technology (DSRC) Consists in communication between on-board-unit in the vehicle and equipment placed on toll gates, built on the whole road network, defining the charged road sections Used worldwide for many years and time-proven; however many experts consider it as complicated and technologically out-of-date Satellite technology (GNSS/CN) Works on the principle of GPS navigation, i.e. vehicle localization via navigation equipment in the vehicle through GPS satellites Needs no toll gates, which minimizes the construction of objects in road infrastructure, therefore is the most suitable for a high-density road network on the great territory Sofia, 29 March 2011 Experiences in ETC in Slovak republic
