Abstract
Smart cities must offer innovative mobile services in the
areas of transport and culture. In this context, the
ticketing services, which are key elements in the domains
of transport and culture, have to be provided. In this
respect, the impact of technological developments,
including those related to NFC (Near Field
Communication), which is a short range wireless
technology, lead to the deployment of mobile contactless
solutions. We highlight, in the paper, seven models to
manage all or part of mobile contactless ticketing
systems within smart cities. This study is based on the
research conducted in the contactless ticketing area and
on the return of experience gained within a European
project. The models, which give a realistic picture of
the various faces of such systems, are: the
operator-centric model, the manufacturer-centric model,
the identification-based model, the peer-to-peer model,
the smart card-based model, the leeched smart card-based
model, and the inverse reader model. We detail the
characteristics of each model and present use cases.
Furthermore, we present tracks indicating that these
models may coexist within smart cities and we derive some
perspectives on the evolution of these ticketing services
by explaining that two models could be dominant.
