Abstract
This paper considers automatic car park management,
which becomes an inevitable option to rationalize traffic
management in modern cities. Integration of networked sensor/
actuator and radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies
is explored to enable sophisticated services via the Internet
in the emerging internet of things (IoT) context. Based on this
integration, we propose a scalable and low-cost car parking
framework (CPF). A preliminary prototype implementation and
experimentation of some modules of the proposed CFP has been
performed. The clustering of sensors (sensing boards) into a
single mote using the standard I2C protocol has been explored in
the prototype, and experimental results demonstrate considerable
reduction in cost and energy consumption.
