Performance Comparison between Immediate and Nonimmediate Passenger Guidance in Group Control for a Multi-Car Elevator System
Authors: Shunji Tanaka, Takuto Miyoshi
Abstract
A multi-car elevator system is such an elevator system that more than one car is installed in every elevator shaft. In this study we consider a call allocation problem in group control for a multi-car elevator system with non- immediate passenger guidance. In nonimmediate pas- senger guidance the car allocated to a passenger is indi- cated to him/her just before the car arrives at the floor where he/she is waiting. On the other hand, in immedi- ate passenger guidance the car is indicated immediately after a call is registered at an elevator hall. We will pro- pose a simple call allocation algorithm by a local search for nonimmediate passenger guidance and compare its transportation capability with that of immediate passen- ger guidance by computer simulation.
