The monitoring of cultural heritage is becoming common in cities to provide heritage preservation and prevent vandalism. Using\nsensors and video cameras for this task implies the need to transmit information. In this paper, the teletraffic that cameras and\nsensors generate is characterized and the transmissionsâ?? influence on the municipal communications network is evaluated.Then,\nwe propose models for telecommunication traffic sources in an intelligent municipal heritage management service inside a smart\nsustainable city. The sources were simulated in a smart city scenario to find the proper quality of service (QoS) parameters for\nthe communication network, using Valencia City as background. Specific sensors for intelligent municipal heritage management\nwere selected and four telecommunication traffic sources weremodelled according to real-life requirements and sensors datasheet.\nDifferent simulations were performed to find the proper CIR (Committed Information Rate) and PIR (Peak Information Rate)\nvalues and to study the effects of limited bandwidth networks. Packet loss, throughput, delay, and jitter were used to evaluate the\nnetworkâ??s performance. Consequently, the result was the selection of the minimum values for PIR and CIR that ensured QoS and\nthus optimized the traffic telecommunication costs associated with an intelligentmunicipal heritage management service.
