A smart parking system using WiFi and wireless sensor network

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has many applications and its application in vehicle parking systems is increasing as finding parking space for four wheeler and two wheeler vehicles is a growing challenge in many fast growing cities. Consumers are indeed looking for automated parking systems with reservations being made online so as to save time that is spent finding parking space. Vehicle Parking Systems are adopting wireless sensor networks for monitoring and also create possibilities of online bookings using sensor clouds when connected to the internet via the sink node, however maneuvering vehicles into the parking slots is challenging. Users can download and use mobile application of this parking system to book their parking slots which may be available due to a sensor cloud. These possibilities have many constraints which are multi objective as well. The chapter explores these dimensions.

Parking Demand

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: DE; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">With the rapid growth of economy, the process of urbanization is picking up speed. The ensuing fast increase in the number of motor vehicles has aggravated the contradiction between the growing parking demand and the limited parking space in urban areas, which impedes the sustainable development of urban traffic. The traditional parking lot, featured by low efficiency and poor automation, fails to satisfy the soaring parking demand. To improve the traffic management across the city, it is necessary to develop an integrated management platform for urban parking lots. In view of the unique advantage of NarrowBand-Internet of Things (NB-IoT), this paper proposes an urban smart parking management platform based on the NB-IoT and wireless sensor network (WSN), aiming to unlock the full potential of urban parking resources. After briefly introducing the NB-IOT wireless communication and license plate recognition (LPR), the author explained the overall architecture and the image processing algorithm of the NB-IoT oriented urban smart parking plan. Then, the proposed plan was contrasted with traditional wireless communication technology. The results prove that the proposed plan outperformed its traditional counterpart. This research will give a great impetus to the development of the IoT although NB-IoT is still in its nascence</span>
