Research on economic growth in smart cities based on wireless sensor networks

Abstract

With the acceleration of urbanization, the concept of smart city is rising gradually. Wireless sensor network as an important technical support of smart city, its application in environmental monitoring and water resources management has a profound impact on economic growth. Water resource is one of the most dependent resources for human beings. With the growth of world population and the rapid development of economy, water resource crisis is constant, water pollution, water shortage and water waste coexist. How to build a perfect water resource economic policy is a worldwide problem at present. At present, the formulation of water resources policies is often based on experience or the knowledge system of decision makers. Due to the dynamic nature of water resources utilization and the incomplete information of decision makers, there are often policy failures, which affect economic growth. Based on this, this paper uses system dynamics model to study the mechanism of water resources management policies affecting economic growth by taking Gansu, Tianjin and Zhejiang as three qualitatively representative arid areas, transitional areas and water-rich areas. The research results show that under the same water resources policy coupling, different regions also have different eco-economic effects. The effect of coupled water resources policy is better than that of single water resources management policy.
