Dispensing system and method with radio frequency customer identification

Abstract

The present invention relates to automatic accounting for a method and system consumption (fuel purchasing / refueling) by radio frequency consumer identification and charging a consumer transaction to the consumer at a charge unit of at least one charging station where the consumer activates the charging device to initiate the transaction resulting in the purchase. In the process according to the invention, electromagnetic fields of a certain range of ranges are created in the vicinity of the charging devices (14) such that each electromagnetic field corresponds to a charging device (14) and the operating range of the individual electromagnetic fields does not overlap the operating range of the electromagnetic field of another charging device ; found (23, 25) corresponding to the consumer identification data transponder (23, 25) corresponding to a loadable consumer bill in the range of the electromagnetic field of a charging device (14) in a consumer-initiated purchase; and then reading the consumer identification data of the transponder (23, 25) with a reader (20) corresponding to the charging device (14) having the transponder (23, 25) within the operating range of the electromagnetic field; determining whether the consumer has activated the charger (14) after determining that the atransponder is within the range of the electromagnetic field of one charger (14); when it was found that a charging device (14) characterized in that the atransponder is within the range of the electromagnetic field of one of the charging devices (14), and only the consumer identification data taken by the olfactory device (20) is interconnected with the transaction carried out by the activated charger (14) and on this basis permits the transaction to be activated by the activation charger (14); and debit their consumer account in accordance with consumer identification data; while preventing erroneous loads from the actual consumer or another consumer's account through proxy steps. In another variant of the method of the present invention, it is also possible that when an atranszponder is within the range of the electromagnetic field of one charging cell, an indefinite signal is produced to the consumer. According to a further process, first antennas have first,
