GSM based street light fault monitoring & notifying over IoT

Internet of Things (IoT) is a revolutionary and novel platform where a smart network connects to the large number of electronic devices via internet through available communication systems for reliable and real time connectivity, sensing thus acquiring data from sensors, computing and actuating devices. A review of the current status of IoT features, architecture, communication infrastructure and applications is presented here. Number of IoT applications and challenges in the development of smart cities are covered about this innovative technological platform in this review along with communication protocols characteristics and applications. IoT aided smart city services, health applications, transport applications and smart grid improvements are also discussed. Many challenges and issues related to security, communication, applications and system architecture along with future directions of IoT technology are elaborated in detail. 

IoT applications and challenges in smart cities and services

The IoT (Internet of Things) is a blooming technology that mainly concentrates on the interconnection of devices or components to one another and the people. As the time being, many of these connections are changing as “Device – Device” from “Human to Device”. Finding the faulty street light automatically is become a vital milestone by using this technology. The primary goal of the project is to provide control and identification of the damaged street light automatically. The lighting system which targets the energy and automatic operation on economical affordable for the streets and immediate information response about the street light fault. In general, the damage of the street light is observed by getting the complaints from the colony (street) people. Whereas in this proposed work using sensors these lights working status is easily captured without any manual interaction. So that it reduces manual efforts and the delay to fix problems. So, to reduce such problem we come with the solution wherein automatic detection of street light issues i.e.; whether the street light is working or not will be found at night time and it should send the notification to the authorized person if there is a problem in particular streetlight and also the location of the place where the streetlight is damaged. The street lights are automatically ON/OFF using IoT. In this system, it checks whether the street light is ON/ OFF. The LDR sensor will ON/OFF the street lights automatically, based on the condition of the weather.
