    Abstract: A system for controlling the elevators in an elevator system based on passenger presence. The elevator system includes a number of elevators (1A . . . 1H) wherein first sensor members (2, 2A . . . 2H), second sensor members and additional sensor members are arranged in a waiting area of each elevator (1A . . . 1H) on each floor (F, F1, F2, F3 . . . Fn). The first, second and additional sensor members are fitted to give information about the presence and number of passengers waiting to go either up or down for an elevator at least in the waiting area in question. A controller is provided for controlling the elevators. The controller receives information from the first, second and additional sensor members about the presence and number of passengers waiting for an elevator and to control the movement of the elevators of the elevator system utilizing the information received from the first, second and additional sensor members.

    Abstract: A method of allocating calls of a lift installation with at least one lift and at least one car per lift to move passengers in a journey from at least one input floor to at least one destination floor, a system for executing the method and a computer readable memory with instructions for executing the method. The method includes receiving input calls from passengers travelling from an input floor to a destination floor, each call identifying at least one floor as an input floor or a destination floor. A start zone with identified input floors and a destination zone with identified destination floors are determined from the input calls and destination calls. Each identified floor within a corresponding zone is considered using at least one selection criterion and a stopping floor is selected which satisfies the criterion. The car is caused to stop at fewer than all the identified input floors and identified destination floors during the journey.

    Abstract: A method for automatically prompting a car call in an elevator system, determining the number of passengers, allocating the elevator car alternatives as serving elevator cars for the passenger. The elevator system including the door sensing device and the surveillance device for monitoring passenger actions, thereby defining the starting point and the final point of a passenger's traveling path. The method also includes calculating a passenger traveling time period, thereby yielding a time forecast of the passenger's arrival time at the waiting lobby. A cost function containing at least one landing time factor is determined for calculating the cost value of each elevator car alternative. The alternative that gives the lowest cost value is allocated as the serving elevator car for the passenger. The elevator system also receives information from external devices via one or more communicative linkages for system operation.

    Abstract: In an elevator system floors each include: a hall registration device that places a plurality of car calls for moving a car to destination floors different from one another; and a display device that displays the car that has been assigned the plurality of car calls. A limit value setting mechanism sets, for each of the plurality of floors separately, a limit value for limiting a count of the plurality of car calls that can be assigned to the same car. A count-up mechanism obtains, when a new car call is made, a call count of each car by a given method, based on information about the plurality of car calls that have been assigned to the car. A candidate car selector compares the limit value set to a floor where the new car call is made and the call count of the each car, to thereby select, as a candidate car, the car to which the new car call can be assigned from among the cars.

    Abstract: Described is a method for assigning hall calls comprising the steps of receiving a hall call signal, receiving information regarding an elevator system, assigning a destination to the hall call signal, and calculating a call cost value for each elevator car using a handing capacity coefficient. The controller designates the elevator with the lowest call cost value to respond to a call signal. The handling capacity coefficient is a value that reflects the current traffic conditions of an elevator system.

    Abstract: A method for assigning an elevator car to respond to a call signal includes a controller that determines which elevator car will respond to the call signal based on certain wait time thresholds. The controller receives a hall call signal, and the controller is programmed with wait time thresholds that can include, e.g., an estimated wait time (EWT), and/or estimated travel time (ETT). In this example, these thresholds are time values above which a passenger is likely to become impatient, either waiting for an elevator car to arrive, or waiting for their elevator car to arrive at its destination. Based on system information an EWT and ETT are calculated and compared to the thresholds. An elevator car is assigned based on this comparison. In some versions, an estimated time to destination (ETD) is used in determining which elevator car to assign. In some versions, a handling capacity coefficient (HCx), which reflects current traffic conditions, is used in determining which elevator car to assign.
