Integrated Electronic Payment
The integrated electronic payment system that supports the delivery of inte-
grated electronic payment services for the smart city is assumed to consist of five
elements: a smart phone payment application, an electronic parking fee collec-
tion subsystem, an electronic toll collection subsystem, an electronic ticketing
for transit subsystem, and a payment data and analytics subsystem. These are
illustrated in Figure 11.6.
The payment applications subsystem is assumed to be a smart phone
application that can be used across a wide variety of smart phone devices. The
software can support the interface with the user and two-way communications
between the payment application and the integrated payment data and ana-
lytics subsystem. The electronic parking fee collection subsystem will consist
of a hardware and software environment that will support all revenue and
management functions associated with electronic parking fee collection for
both surface and parking structure spaces within the smart city. These func-
tions will include the collection of data and information delivery with respect
to availability and location of spaces. The electronic toll collection subsystem
will consist of a hardware and software environment that will support all as-
pects of electronic toll collection including account management, transponder
management, transaction processing, and enforcement. The electronic ticket-
ing for transit subsystem will support similar functions for transit ticketing
through purpose-specific hardware and software environment that supports
point-of-sale transactions on transit vehicles and back-office processing of data
and transactions.

Smart Grid, Roadway Electrification, and Electric Vehicle
Figure 11.7 illustrates the assumed configuration of the system that supports
the delivery of smart grid, roadway electrification, and electric vehicle service.
There are five elements identified within this system: a private car in-vehicle
subsystem, an urban delivery vehicle in-vehicle subsystem, a rental car/taxi in-
vehicle subsystem, a roadside electric vehicle charging subsystem, and a smart
grid data and analytics subsystem. These are illustrated in Figure 11.7.
