Human Sensing Network Architecture and Challenges in Smart Cities
نویسندگان
چکیده
Crowdsensing, people tracking and urban space utilization are critical tasks for understanding human behavior in smart cities. Human sensing applications provide valuable feedback to the urban developers and architects to optimize public facilities and re-invent spaces. In this chapter, a Renewable Wireless Sensor Network (RWSN) architecture for human sensing is presented to study the spatial and temporal information of urban space utilization and pedestrian flow. The individual components, pertaining to human sensing and RWSN network architecture, are also explained.

International Challenges of Smart Cities
The world’s urban population is expected to be proliferated due to raised use of energy, increased air pollution, increasing traffic in urban areas, increasing usage of food, and reduced food production. There are numerous available solutions in this field, but achieving smart cities is one the furthermost effective ways. Smart city has improved ICT infrastructure as a versatile, reliable, chan...
متن کاملSmart Citizen Sensing: A Proposed Computational System with Visual Sentiment Analysis and Big Data Architecture
A city’s “smartness” depends greatly on citizens’ participation in smart city services. Furthermore, citizens are becoming technology-oriented in every aspect concerning their convenience, comfort and safety. Thus, they become sensing nodes—or citizen sensors—within smart-cities with both static information and a constantly emitting activity system. This paper presents a novel approach to perfo...
