Crowd Management using Low Energy MmWave WiGig with Point-to-Massive-Points Communications
In this paper, we present an idea of WiGig-based virtual pass-through (VPT) to acquire the information such as; the number of visitors, nationality, ID number etc. WiGig is a new wireless access standard (IEEE 802.11ad) which works on millimeter-wave frequency enabling beam focused high data rate transmission and reception. In the proposed architecture, each visitor is provided a reusable Ultra low power (with battery life of a month or more) identification card (ID) which serves as WiGig client. Two WiGig access points serves as virtual pass-through. These VPTs could be deployed at the desired locations to collect the visitors' information. The collected information is sent to the centralized control room through wireless modem using existing LTE network. This information could be used for counting the number of visitors passing through a specific path and consequently forecasting the number of visitors at the destination. It serves also for a cross-checking and verification of the visitors (groups) scheduled plan and to improve check-and-balance. We aim to study the feasibility of the use of WiGig based VPT. WiGig has its advantages (large bandwidth in ISM band) and disadvantages (high pathloss at high frequencies). Our targeted application requires a limited time connection with moving visitors to receive the records of fixed length. WiGig uses beamforming to focus the beam in desired direction. Our simulation results show the feasibility of the WiGig based VTP in crowd management systems.
