Abstract
Recently, IoT technology has been applied in various field. One of the possible fields of an application is logistics system. In current system, a delivery must go through the designated logistics hub, which doesn’t provide shortest distance. Such system costs time and inefficient expenses. In this paper, we propose an enhanced parcel delivery system based on IoT technology for reducing total delivery distance and seeking for much economy. First, we designed a sort of IoT devices which can be attached to parcels. This device has various functionalities including the ability to figure out current delivery route. Second, we addressed some difficulties such as: (i) issues linking IoT device into its platform; (ii) issues for designing IoT devices functionalities. Third, we propose ways to improve the efficiency of IoT based parcel delivery system. From these considerations, our system may improve total economics of parcel delivery system.
