Abstract

In the last few years, researchers from many research fields are investigating the problem affecting all the drivers in big and populated cities: the parking problem. In outdoor environments, the problem can be solved by relying on vehicular ad hoc networks, which guarantee communication among vehicles populating the network. When it comes to indoor settings, the problem gets harder, since drivers cannot count on classic GPS localization. In this work, a smart parking solution for a specific indoor setting is provided, exploiting the fingerprint approach for indoor localization. The considered scenario is a multi-level car park inside an airport building. The algorithm provides a vehicle allocation inside the car park in quadratic time over the number of parking slots, by also considering the driver’s preferences on the terminal to be reached.
