Strategies for Controlling Elevator Group Systems

In high-rise buildings, elevators must be safely and efficiently moving people during daytime. Generally, elevator up-peak traffic is predominant traffic between a lobby and various upper floors. Especially, the main expectation from elevators in buildings is increasing in a rush-hour time. Therefore, the passenger’s waiting time in their floor are increased. We can say that the services given by the elevator group control system are not sufficient in this building. The passenger service level in an elevator system depends on the controlling of the elevators. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that an effective way to control of elevators group using optimization algorithms and the results show that the average journey and waiting time of passengers are decreased by means of suggested method.
