1. Introduction
The Smart Parking v2 solution developed by Libelium allows citizens to detect available parking slots.

The node applies intelligent algorithms to detect changes in the state of the parking slot. Then data is transmitted
with the
LoRaWAN radio to the fi nal server.

The nodes provisioning has been enormously improved. The nodes are delivered with default time settings and
also unique LoRaWAN identi
fi ers and keys. So it is easy to use the default settings to register all nodes in the
LoRaWAN network server at a time.
The Smart Parking node improves the detection and stability performance thanks to a radar sensor which permits
to certainly know when objects are placed over the device. The next table shows a comparative analysis of the
current sensor technologies in the Smart Parking market:
