Far EasTone Telecommunication Starts a New Era of Smart City with the help of Big Man + 5G

Far Eastern Magazine / Editorial Room

        In the first half of the year, the telecommunications industry experienced two major technological events: the 2019 MWC, held in Spain at the end of February, with the theme "Intellegent Connectivity" centering on various links of wisdom and the deployment of 5G products and services; and the 2009 Smart City Exhibition, which was launched in Taiwan at the end of March, showed that both Taiwan and the global market are entering the key time of 10,000 Internet of things (IoT) and 5G. As the leader of action technology, Far EasTone Telecommunication has already laid out Big Data+AI+IoT to welcome the arrival of 5G and draw a new vision for urban upgrading.


        Big Data knows the environment and gives advice
         The theme of "Smart City Exhibition 2019" is "Intelligent Internet of Things (IoT) Leads Intelligent City Upgrading". Far EasTone Telecommunication plans two innovative applications in the fields of "Wisdom City Vision" and "Wisdom Enterprise Upgrading". They include: Internet of Vehicles, Wisdom Parking, Wisdom Street Lamp, Wisdom Meter, Environmental Detection, Wisdom Medicine, Big. Data flow/traffic analysis, etc., fully presents the smart city created by the public sector.
        
         The fruitful results are not only for display, but also for real application in daily life. Taking Big Data application as an example, Far EasTone Telecommunication first used Big Data to filter, reorganize, analyze and other information quenching steps in the Taiwanese Lamp Festival 2018 sponsored by the Chiayi County Government. Combined with self-developed algorithms, the analysis was quickly completed within 1.5 hours after the data collection was completed, providing the most immediate information for the Chiayi County Government on that day. When the number of visitors is counted, it is convenient for the county government to grasp the change of people in the exhibition area and estimate the number of daily visitors in each activity area. In addition, Far EasTone Telecommunication also provides profile analysis information during the lamp festival, which serves as a decision-making basis for adjusting service and marketing resource allocation, and greatly improves activity satisfaction and overall activity effectiveness.

The scene moved to New Taipei. Far EasTone Telecommunication also proposed new countermeasures for energy management in the city. In cooperation with the Education Bureau of New Taipei Municipal Government, it launched "Campus Smart Energy Cloud". It installed all-heat exchanges in 299 schools to improve air quality, install ECO-IR controller to regulate air conditioning, collect electricity information using smart meters, and then generate these devices. The data are transmitted back to the management platform through the communication gateway to facilitate subsequent analysis and interpretation. Because the actual situation of electricity consumption in each school is different, we can find out the energy management policy suitable for each school by grasping the electricity data of each link in time and analyzing it. In the future, it can be further extended to other units and enterprises to expand energy efficiency. In particular, Far EasTone Telecommunication uses a new type of NB-IoTInternet of things (IoT) motion sensing chip in the communication gateway of this architecture to provide backup functions, and once again combines Big Data and Internet of things (IoT) technology to achieve innovative and intelligent applications.

        Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence Innovation
         The application of Internet of things (IoT) in smart cities is constantly upgrading and growing. Among them, in environmental detection, the issue of air pollution has attracted much attention. In 2018, Far EasTone Telecommunication, in cooperation with the Tainan Municipal Government, launched a new smart air pollution prevention and control system, using sensing elements to detect the odor of the surrounding environment, once abnormal and beyond the preset. At the same time, the sensor will warn the county and city environmental protection bureau, and then cooperate with the inspection team to investigate, handle and issue a ticket in time, hoping to quickly eliminate the factors causing air pollution and maintain a clean and fresh city. It is worth mentioning that Far EasTone Telecommunication uses Internet of Things (IoT) wireless transmission technology in Tainan City. A large number of low-cost sensing elements are densely distributed, which can effectively improve the previous problem of insufficient sensing density and make the air pollution prevention effect more effective.

        Apart from air quality, parking is also a major pain point in modern life. In order to provide more immediate and accurate parking information for the public and maximize the benefits of parking spaces, Far EasTone Telecommunication has built "NB-IoT Intelligent Outdoor Parking Information System" for Taoyuan City. Geomagnetic instrument detectors are installed in 400 parking spaces in the city. Once the car enters the parking spaces, it can transmit the information to the information management platform through NB-IoT sensing equipment and then transfer it to the information management platform. "Taoyuan Easy GO" APP, so that all vacancy information at a glance, greatly enhance the management efficiency of parking spaces and outdoor parking turnover, effectively solve the traffic congestion, traffic flow and idle air pollution, or even can not find parking spaces caused by parking disorders. In addition, Far EasTone Telecommunication has also expanded this application to assist Taoyuan bus lattice to install geomagnetic system, which combines NB-IoT geomagnetic signal with image recording to improve the accident problems arising from car and locomotive parking violations in bus parking areas. Last year, Far EasTone Telecommunication's roadside parking real-time information service application ("Wanciwang Project") was approved by the Industrial Bureau of the Ministry of Economy. It is expected that this year it will expand to 7 counties and cities of Taiwan and build geomagnetic detection devices for 30,000-grid outdoor parking spaces. It will become the largest NB-IoT intelligent outdoor parking information system in the whole station, and help management units effectively grasp the turnover rate of parking spaces and improve it. Urban governance performance.
        
         Referring to NB-IoT, Far EasTone Telecommunication's technological hegemony over Taiwan has created a "Six Crowns" record, including: the first company in Taiwan to obtain 3 million Internet of things (IoT) exclusive doors, complete NB-IoT network coverage, publish NB-Ionformation fee program, complete NB-IoT formal business transformation, establish NB-IoT ecosphere, and provide NB-IoT enterprise free experience program, etc. 。 With the maturity of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, Far EasTone Telecommunication not only continues to deepen its cooperation with the industrial chain to expand the IoT ecosystem, but also works with international partners to promote the integration of AI and IoT, and successfully develops rich innovative applications of AIoT. For example, "AI Smart Street Lamp" is a collaboration with Microsoft to build an Azure cloud platform, which is different from traditional or networked streetlights. Far EasTone Telecommunication combines mobile phone signal information as a data basis, and establishes the integration of three models through Taiwan Microsoft Expert Technology Team and Azure cloud platform machine learning mechanism, so as to judge the number of people, and then determine the brightness of streetlights. It is estimated that more than 20% of the electricity will be saved. In the future, Far EasTone Telecommunication plans to implement AI technology in many fields, such as traditional industry, manufacturing industry, long-term medical care and smart city, to help customers innovate and upgrade.
