IoT spectrum requirement for smart transportation

This paper aims to calculate the Internet of Things (IoT) spectrum requirement of smart transportation supported by LTE mobile technology by taking case study of smart transportation in Jakarta. This calculation is needed due to a prediction of deficiency of 500 MHz mobile spectrum in 2020. We use the method of general LTE planning equation. The results are IoT spectrum needed by smart transportation in Jakarta by 2020 reaches 0.0140 KHz, for smart transportation equipped with a GPS sensor, and grows to 84.290 KHz in order to accommodate an additional CCTV in every bus. Spectrum requirements are increased by 2.93% in 2025.
