Integrated environment for testing IoT and RFID technologies applied on intelligent transportation system in Brazilian scenarios

Brazil is approving a series of new regulations, standards for RFID and IoT components applied in transportation scenarios. At this stage, there is already a need for interoperability and Brazilian regulators require that interoperability should satisfy recognized standards such as NTCIP, SINIAV, and ISO/IEC 18000-6. Although there are studies of the higher evolutionary level of IoT, much more are needed on the standardization of interfaces and communication protocols. The infrastructure created at IPT will grow to allow testing of products, environments, services, and innovative RFID solutions with applications in the context of the Internet of Things. The main purposes for laboratory are for teaching and research, and the next step involves the connection with experimental networks of Future Internet. Thus, enabling researchers, teachers, and students to conduct experimental research using innovative technologies offered by these systems. Consequently, we can form a critical mass of knowledge and skills required to identify and seize new business opportunities, mainly in V2I and V2V environment.
