Passing control method and apparatus

A passing control apparatus of a vehicle comprising at least one processor and at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor, wherein the at least one memory stores program instructions for execution by the at least one processor to cause the apparatus to:

• receive, from a roadside apparatus, a first signal at a first power that carries a payment inquiry message for requesting payment voucher information of the vehicle that has completed a payment of a toll for passing through a gate without actually passing through the gate;
• receive, from the roadside apparatus, a second signal at a second power that carries a payment interaction message for collecting the toll from the vehicle, wherein the second signal is higher than the first power;
• and
• send, based on the payment inquiry message, a payment response message comprising the payment voucher information to the roadside apparatus, wherein the roadside apparatus generates a passing control signal for controlling the gate to release the vehicle.
