TL;DR: A novel scheme for a Zig-bee based street light control is proposed with an aim to reduce the human error in the operation of street lights, decrease the energy consumption of the system, and ease the maintenance of the street light network.
Abstract: The energy wastage is proved a big problem in this modern life. Usage of the energy resources are increasing rapidly. The current scenario of the street light system is that it needs the man power to control the lighting system and the other problems associated with the conventional street light system is energy wastage .The street lights are seen in ON condition in the day time when not needed and in OFF conditions sometimes when needed most. To avoid these errors, the street lighting system is being controlled by GSM technology, Microcontroller and a Schmitt trigger circuit. A number of street light control system have been developed to control and to reduce energy consumpation of a public lighting system. These ranges from controlling a circuit of street light and/or individual lights with specific ballasts and network operating protocols. These may include sending and receiving instruction via a separate data network, at a high frequency over the top of the low voltage supply or wireless. The control centre will deal with the data so that it can know the situation of each streetlight. A novel scheme for a Zig-bee based street light control is to proposed with an aim to reduce the human error in the operation of street lights, decrease the energy consumption of the system, and ease the maintenance of the street light network. These objectives are achieved by creating a wireless Zig-bee network of street lights that can be monitored from a base station. An automatic mode of operation that utilizes light sensors to automatically switch ON the street lights when light intensity falls below a certain level, has also been incorporated.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a street light system consisting of an array of at least two street lights, each comprising: a pole; a fixture having a light source and a light control configured to adjust an operation of the light source; and an operation monitor which is configured to monitor operational performance of the lights.
Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a street light system, comprising: - an array of at least two street lights, each comprising: a pole; a fixture having a light source and a light control configured to adjust an operation of the light source; and an operation monitor which is configured to monitor operational performance of the light source; and - a system controller, in communication with the operation monitors of at least two street lights in the array to receive performance information with respect to the light sources thereof and in communication with the light control of at least one street light in the array to provide control information to adjust the operation of the at least one light source based on performance information of at least one other street light in the array.

TL;DR: In this paper, a real-time checking system is provided to expand the life span of a lamp and reduce power consumption by using a real time checking system, where the main control unit transmits a street light control signal, receives and displays the state data of the street light through a wireless communication.
Abstract: A hybrid function type remote street light control system is provided to expand a life span of a lamp and reduce a power consumption by using a real time checking system A hybrid function type remote street light control system includes a main control unit(10), a street light controller(30), a street light device(40), a remote operation controller(50) and a remote A/S system(60) The main control unit transmits a street light control signal, receives and displays the state data of a street light through a wireless communication The street light controller having an assigned local number transmits a control signal of each street light assigned by the control signal received from the main control unit through the wireless communication The street light device controls a street light based on the control signal received from the main control unit and the street light controller through the wireless communication The street light device having an identifier number transmits the state data of the street light to the street light controller The remote operation controller controls a remote operation with the main control unit The remote A/S system controls a remote maintenance and reparation with the main control device through the wireless communication
