Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
In this paper, we propose an energy-saving elevator scheduling algorithm to reduce the car moving steps to achieve motor energy saving and green wireless communications. The proposed algorithm consisting of six procedures can attain fewer Internet of Things (IoT) message exchanges (i.e. communication transmissions) between the Scheduler subsystem and the Car subsystem via the core function AssignCar(r). The function AssignCar(r) is capable of assigning a request to the nearest car through car search globally. From the emulation results for four cars, this work shows that the proposed algorithm outperforms the previous work named as aggressive car scheduling with initial car distribution (ACSICD) algorithm with energy consumption reductions by 49.43%, 47.68%, 37.89%, and 47.65% for up-peak, inter-floor, downpeak, and all-day request patterns, respectively.
