Abstract

The trend of Internet of Things (IoT) and wireless network techniques have resulted in a promising paradigm, and a more rational and intelligent elevator control system shall be considered. Many previous works are devoted to improving traffic congestion capability to increase time efficiency. However, these approaches confront the limitations of destination perception in advance or there is a steady stream of persons coming to wait the elevator that may increase the uncertainty of sensing the traffic load, since the user interface is still around elevator car. In this paper, an improved elevator system is proposed with remote calling and cloud scheduling based on low power wireless networks. It enables users to call the elevator remotely through portable devices, solves the problem of elevator invalid stop, reduces system energy consumption, and improves the service life of the elevator. It can match the running state of the elevator with the multi-user call request, shorten the time for users to take the elevator, and improve the comprehensive operation efficiency of the elevator.
