Abstract
A system can include: a detector configured to provide input information; an electric vehicle; an electric vehicle charger; and a cloud server configured to execute a Simultaneous Parking and Charging Management (SPCM) method based on the input information, and communicate with the electric vehicle to assign a time for a certain electric vehicle charger based on a result of the executed SPCM method.
Claims21
A system, comprising:
- at least one detector configured to provide input information;
- at least one electric vehicle;
- at least one electric vehicle charger;
- and
- a cloud server configured to:
- execute a Simultaneous Parking and Charging Management (SPCM) method based at least in part on the input information;
- and
- communicate with the at least one electric vehicle to assign a time for a certain one of the at least one electric vehicle charger based at least in part on a result of the executed SPCM method.
5 more elements
A method, comprising:
- using at least one sensor to collect information pertaining to current traffic conditions and parking/charging spot availability for a parking area;
- each of the at least one electric vehicle reporting a plurality of parameters upon entering the parking area;
- using a cloud server, solving an optimization problem based at least in part on the collected information and the plurality of parameters;
- and
- communicating to each of the at least one electric vehicle an assigned time and a location of a certain parking spot based on a result of the solved optimization problem.
