Abstract

Smart city and the Internet of Things (IoT) represent the future in the urban areas. The combination of different systems aimed to monitor different aspects of the smart city (such as e-health, air quality monitoring, gas, water and electricity monitoring, or emergency situations detection among others) can be used to create a more sustainable and a securer city. In this chapter, we propose an architecture that combines the data from different systems. However, in this scenario, the amount of traffic generated for each device must be considered. Therefore, we propose the use of data aggrupation in each antenna in order to reduce the amount of generated traffic in the 5th Generation (5G) network and thus the energy consumption. The IP of the original device and its data is grouped with the data and IPs of other devices forming a packet with all the data from one system. Thus, the generated traffic is reduced because we use a lower number of headers to transmit the same information. The system has been tested with e-health data from 250 people and three health sensors. The results show that data aggrupation saves up to 70% of the generated traffic.
