Abstract

Abstract Guayaquil is one of the most congested cities on the American continent. Several users cannot access on-time transport service according to the demand requested at bus stops. This work presents a simulation of the Wi-Fi technology to determine the number of users present at a bus stop. The objective is to know an estimation of them in different time intervals throughout the day, which could be useful for several actions, e.g., to set up a better distribution of transportation schedules or to place the bus stops in more demanding sites by users. The methodology included simulation scenarios for user counting at the bus stops. The results depicted that Wi-Fi technology performed suitable even in high-level attenuation scenarios.

通过Wi-Fi连接评估估算公交车站的占用率——在瓜亚基尔市的一项研究

瓜亚基尔是美洲大陆上最拥挤的城市之一。部分用户在公交站点无法按要求获得准点交通服务。这项工作提出了Wi-Fi技术的模拟，以确定在公交车站出现的用户数量。目标是了解一天中不同时间间隔的估计，这可能对几个行动有用，例如，建立更好的交通时间表分布或将公共汽车站放置在用户要求更高的地点。该方法包括在公交车站点票的模拟场景。结果表明，即使在高衰减情况下，Wi-Fi技术也表现良好。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
