City Level Pilot Trials• Hoboken Smart City Project
– Robust connectivity to wireless sensors monitoring water level in Hudson river, for high fidelity flood forecasting, modeling and simulation for emergency planning
• Hoboken PATH, NJ Transit trains and NY Waterway– HD, real-time, interactive mobile video streaming for situational awareness using
multitude of bands (cellular, WiFi, satellites, …)
• MileMesh Project– City level wireless mesh network using roof top mounted wireless routers. Citizen
volunteer powered
• Hoboken-NYC across the river spectrum sharing experiments
Why Hoboken?• Strong support from the Hoboken Mayor, Public Safety and other
