Proposal of a Sustainable e-Bike Sharing Infrastructure Based on the IEEE 1451 Standard
Rita Pinto, António Espírito-Santo, Vincenzo Paciello · 2019
With the demand for greener urban mobility solutions, cities are implementing bike-sharing systems to reduce the usage of combustion engine vehicles and, at same time, promote physical activities. This concept presents itself as a good scenario to the implementation of wireless sensors network on bicycles due to its features: mobile transducers, different sensors and data, and system architecture. This paper discusses the scenario of an e-bike sharing infrastructure that implements a network of transducers following the guidelines from IEEE 1451 standards, highlighting the implementation its details. The development of network compliant with this family of standards promotes the implementation of features such as interoperability, connectivity, scalability, and plug-and-play on new devices and systems.
