eleven-X PRK001001 Smart Parking Solution

Introduction

The eleven smart parking sensor is an innovative patent-pending LoRaWAN®-based device that utilizes multiple technologies including magnetic sensing, radar, Bluetooth® wireless technology and AI that provides:

  • Real-time stall occupancy status and monitoring
  • Industry-leading accuracy based on multiple sensing technologies backed by advanced AI
  • Designed and engineered for maximum reliability and robustness
  • Leverages standards-based low power wireless technology
  • Ultra-long battery life

The rugged sensor is designed to function in all conditions. It can be installed on the parking surface or below the surface. Surface installation is done using a combination of high strength adhesive and screws. Inground installation is achieved by coring a hole in the parking surface, inserting the sensors and filling with road grade epoxy. For details see the eleven-x installation guide. The sensor sends parking events over LoRaWAN to the eleven-x SPS analytics platform where the data provides key analytics and insight to help parking manager understand the usage of the parking assets. Bluetooth technology provides easy installation, configuration, and maintenance of the sensor.

LoRaWAN Overview

LoRaWANTM [which stands for long range wide area network], is the undisputed leader in open standard LPWA [low power wide area] networks with deployments globally. The technology is backed by the LoRa Alliance™, which is a global organization comprised of over 500 organizations with the goal of moving IoT forward. Some of the key features of LoRaWANTM include:

  1.  LOW POWER CONSUMPTION: Wireless, battery-powered devices operate up to 10 years on standard batteries.
  2.  LOW TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP: Low-cost battery-powered devices combined with low connectivity and installation fees and little-to-zero maintenance keep overall program costs down.
  3.  OPEN STANDARD: LoRaWANTM is based on open architecture which enables open data environments.
  4.  LONG RANGE: Reliable connectivity in urban and indoor environments with connectivity extending up to approximately 48 km [30 miles].
  5.  SECURITY: LoRaWANTM utilizes 128-bit AES encryption.

Bluetooth Low Energy

BLE is a variation of the Bluetooth wireless standard designed for low power consumption. It is an industry leading standard for power efficient communication between devices. Bluetooth Low Energy uses the same 2.4 GHz radio frequencies as classic Bluetooth. BLE is supported by most modern cell phones and tablets. BLE is used by the parking sensor for installation, configuration, and maintenance. The sensor can only connect with the eleven-x Android phone application. The phone application connects in the eleven-x platform using the phones internet connection and provides seamless installation.

Sensor Usage
The parking sensor is for use in outdoor parking lots, street parking and in parking structures. It is to be installed as described in the above section and the installation manual.
The sensor should not be opened or modified in anyway.
