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: An intelligent destination elevator control system streamlines the efficiency and control of destination elevators. The system monitors a building's population and predicts elevator traffic conditions. The system may monitor attributes of the destination elevators. Based on the monitored data, the system may generate a data structure that renders time-tables and target elevator service quality parameters that may control the destination elevators. A time-table and target elevator service quality parameters may be selected to control destination elevators according to one or more customer selectable mode of operation parameters. The data structure may be processed to control UP and/or DOWN transportation capacities of the destination elevators while satisfying the one or more customer selectable mode of operation parameters.Some intelligent destination elevator control systems may control when elevator cars of a group service the floors of a building. Control of the elevator cars may be flexible to allow the system to increase or decrease traffic capacities of the elevator cars in accordance with anticipated traffic conditions.

Abstract: An elevator system employing a micro-processor-based group controller (FIG. 2) communicating with the cars (3, 4) to assign cars to hall calls based on a Relative System Response (RSR) approach. However, rather than using unvarying bonuses and penalties, the assigned bonuses and penalties are varied using "artificial intellience" techniques based on combined historic and real time traffic predictions to predict the number of people behind a hall call, and, calculating and using the average boarding and de-boarding rates at "en route" stops, and the expected car load at the hall call floor. Prediction of the number of people waiting behind hall calls for a few minute intervals are made using traffic levels measured during the past few time intervals on that day as real time predictors, using a linear exponential smoothing model, and traffic levels measured during similar time intervals on previous similar days as historic traffic predictors, using a single exponential smoothing model. The remaining capacity in the car at the hall call floor is matched to the waiting queue using a hall call mismatch penalty. The car stop and hall stop penalties are varied based on the number of people behind the hall call and the variable dwell times at "en route" stops. The stopping of a heavily loaded car to pick up a few people is penalized using a car load penalty. These enhancements to RSR result in equitable distribution of car stops and car loads, thus improving handling capacity and reducing waiting and service times.

Abstract: An elevator control system employing a micro-processor-based group controller (FIG. 2), which communicates with the cars (3, 4) of the system to determine the conditions of the cars, and responds to hall calls registered at a plurality of landings in the building serviced by the cars under control of the group controller, assigning hall calls to cars based on the summation for each car, relative to each call, a weighted summation of a plurality of system response factors, some indicative, and some not, of conditions of the car irrespective of the call being assigned, assigning varying "bonuses" and "penalties" to them in the weighted summation. "Artificial intelligence" techniques are used to predict traffic levels and any crowd build up at various floors to better assign one or more cars to the "crowd" predicted floors, either parking them there, if they were empty, or more appropriately assigning car(s) to the hall calls. Traffic levels at various floors are predicted by collecting passengers and car stop counts in real time and using real time and historic prediction for the traffic levels, with single exponential smoothing and/or linear exponential smoothing. Predicted passenger arrival counts are used to predict any crowd at fifteen second intervals at floors where significant traffic is predicted. Crowd prediction is then adjusted for any hall call stops made and the number of passengers picked up by the cars. The crowd dynamics are matched to car assignment, with one or more cars being sent to crowded floor(s).

Abstract: Apparatus for generating dispatching signals for a group of elevators operating between two terminals. The dispatching signals are generated at intervals computed in accordance with an estimated number of passengers the next car to be dispatched from each terminal will carry. This estimate is based on the actual number of passengers carried by previously dispatched cars. By functioning in this manner the apparatus distributes the passengers between the cars.

Abstract: An exemplary method of controlling an elevator system includes determining a source floor of a new call from a passenger desiring elevator service. A direction of travel from the source floor for the new call is also determined. A path of a considered elevator car is simulated as if the new call were assigned to the considered elevator car by determining at least one of (i) a relationship between a position of the considered elevator car and the source floor or (ii) a relationship between a direction of movement of the considered elevator car and the direction of travel. The new call is assigned to one of a plurality of elevator cars if the assigning will satisfy each of (i) the one of the elevator cars will not move in a direction opposite the direction of travel during a time between the passenger boarding the one of the elevator cars and arriving at a destination of the passenger and (ii) the one of the elevator cars will not move in a direction opposite a travel direction of any currently assigned passenger during a time between the currently assigned passenger boarding the one of the elevator cars and arriving at a destination of the currently assigned passenger.

Abstract: A double-deck elevator group controller including a hall-installed car call registration device, cars of the first operation mode which are in charge of operation between even-numbered floors or between odd-numbered floors and cars of the second operation mode which serve all of the floors at which the cars can stop, are set, and in consideration of both combinations of boarding and alighting floors of registered from-hall car calls and an increment of the number of stops, the from-hall car calls are divided for assignment to the cars of the first operation mode and the cars of the second operation, whereby it is possible to meet from-hall car calls having arbitrary floors as the boarding and alighting floors and it is possible to improve the operation efficiency.
