Electronic toll collection system (ETCS) devices on vehicles communicate wirelessly with road head devices at toll stations. ETCS is preferred in countries because it is more convenient and efficient than manual toll collection. However, the scattered and constant innovations in this sector require a bridge between worldwide ETCS usage and advancements and a single page to grasp this sector's developments to ensure further developments. Following a systematic review, this study examined ETCS worldwide and technology adaption considering the scopes, limitations, usages, and related technology of the ever-developing electronic toll collection system. Existing ETCS technologies have been investigated and synchronized with ingrowing tech disparity to overcome the research synchronization gap. The study also included a bibliometric assessment to identify the important areas of research, technologies most used, degree of knowledge generated, growth/trend of the researches, most well-known authors, keywords, countries, documents, source of publication, and so on considering time-to-time changes. The study provided bibliometric solutions to the gap of lack of synchronization of research worldwide and even ETCS implementation difference within a country, which complicated collaboration with the central system and linked organizations and made it difficult for users to adapt the system.

迈向智能交通系统：电子不停车收费系统全面回顾

车辆上的电子不停车收费系统 (ETCS) 设备与收费站的路头设备进行无线通信。ETCS在各国受到青睐，因为它比人工收费更方便、更高效。然而，该领域分散且持续的创新需要在全球 ETCS 使用和进步之间架起一座桥梁，并通过一个页面来掌握该领域的发展，以确保进一步发展。经过系统回顾，本研究考虑了不断发展的电子不停车收费系统的范围、局限性、用途和相关技术，考察了全球 ETCS 和技术适应情况。现有的 ETCS 技术已被研究并与不断扩大的技术差距同步，以克服研究同步差距。该研究还包括文献计量评估，以确定重要的研究领域、最常用的技术、产生的知识程度、研究的增长/趋势、最著名的作者、关键词、国家、文献、出版来源等考虑到不时的变化。该研究为世界范围内研究缺乏同步性甚至国家内部ETCS实施差异的差距提供了文献计量解决方案，这使得与中央系统和链接组织的协作变得复杂，并使用户难以适应该系统。
