10.1.1. Deployment of the motes
The optimum deployment point will be the one where the probability of detection is maximum, which means minimizing the
probabilities of false detection (caused by other vehicles or objects near the lot under control) and false rejection (owed to a not
high enough variation in the magnetic field above the mote with a vehicle parked in the spot).
This optimum deployment spot will depend on the kind of parking lot that we are going to monitor. In the case of parallel
parking lots the mote should be deployed below one of the car sides, as shown in figure below, while for perpendicular parking
spots the most adequate place will be the one nearest to the center of the motor or the backside of the vehicle.
