  • the present invention belongs to the field of Elevator intelligent control technologies and relates to determining the movement of a passenger relative to an elevator landing area by using wireless interaction between a wireless signal module installed in an elevator car and a personal mobile terminal.
  • one common elevator calling operation manner is as follows: a passenger manually presses a certain elevator calling button on an elevator calling control panel installed in one elevator landing area to input an elevator calling request command for traveling upward or traveling downward; then after entering a certain elevator car, the passenger manually presses a certain floor button on a destination floor registration control panel installed in each elevator car to input a destination floor.
