SMART CITY VISION

1)More sustainable and efficient urban environment.

2)Tokyo is focused on leveraging advanced technology to improve the quality of life for its residents.

3)Focus on Key urban challenges such as traffic congestion, energy efficiency, and waste management.
SMART CITY VISION

4)Development of sustainable transportation systems. Eg, Expansion of subway network, promotion of cycling
and walking as viable alternatives to cars.

5) Solar power- The city has set a goal of increasing the use of renewable energy to 30% of total electricity
consumption by 2030.

6)Working to improve its waste management systems .

Overall, Tokyo's smart city vision is focused on creating a more sustainable and efficient urban
environment through the use of advanced technology and innovative solutions.
IOT IN TOKYO

The city has been implementing various IoT technologies across its infrastructure, including transportation,
energy, and waste management systems:

1) In the transportation sector, Tokyo has been using IoT sensors to monitor traffic flow and provide real-time
traffic updates to drivers to reduce traffic congestion and improve overall transportation efficiency. The city
has also introduced a smart parking system that uses IoT sensors to guide drivers to available parking
spots, reducing the time spent looking for parking and helping to reduce traffic.

2) In terms of energy management, Tokyo has been using IoT sensors to monitor electricity usage in
public buildings, such as schools and government offices. This data is then analyzed to identify
areas where energy efficiency can be improved, such as by reducing lighting or HVAC usage during
off-peak hours. The city is also installing IoT-enabled smart meters in homes and businesses,
allowing residents to monitor and control their electricity usage in real-time.

3) In waste management, Tokyo has been using IoT sensors to monitor garbage collection
routes and optimize collection schedules. This helps to reduce the number of garbage
trucks on the road and minimize the amount of waste sent to landfills. The city has also
introduced smart garbage bins that use sensors to detect when they are full and need to
be emptied, reducing the number of unnecessary trips by garbage trucks.
5 IOT STANDARDS


LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) Networks: This is a wireless communication technology that allows IoT
devices to connect to the internet over long distances while consuming minimal power. LPWA networks
are commonly used in Tokyo for smart city applications such as environmental monitoring, traffic
management, and public safety.

• OneM2M: This is an international standard for machine-to-machine communication and IoT


interoperability. OneM2M provides a common framework for different IoT devices and platforms to
communicate with each other, regardless of the manufacturer or technology used.

• MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport): This is a lightweight messaging protocol that is
commonly used in IoT applications to send and receive data between devices. MQTT is designed to be
efficient and reliable, making it well-suited for use in Tokyo's IoT networks.
• CoAP (Constrained Application Protocol): This is a specialized web transfer protocol that is
optimized for use in constrained IoT devices with limited resources, such as low-power
sensors and actuators. CoAP is commonly used in Tokyo's smart city applications to
enable communication between different IoT devices.
• LoRaWAN: This is a wireless networking protocol that uses low-power, long-range radio
frequencies to connect IoT devices to the internet. LoRaWAN is commonly used in Tokyo's
smart city applications for things like waste management, traffic monitoring, and
environmental monitoring.
