An Intelligent Lighting Control System for Urban Street Lamps Using Internet of Things

With the rapid development of the city, the city's intelligent lighting control system has gradually replaced the traditional lighting control system. But at present, there are still some problems in urban street lamp lighting control, such as a low level of intelligence, a huge waste of electric energy, improper maintenance, and so on. Firstly, aiming at the problem of untimely detection of street lamp faults, this paper adds GIS technology to the intelligent lighting system and uses GIS to locate the faulty street lamp. To improve the accuracy of intelligent dimming, an improved intelligent dimming algorithm based on a support vector machine is proposed. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, an intelligent lighting control system based on an improved algorithm and GIS technology is designed in this paper. It can control the street light switch in real-time and monitor the working condition of the street light in real-time. The performance of the improved system is verified by experiments. The experimental results show that the system achieves automatic dimming function through an improved dimming algorithm; the system can alarm and locate the fault lamp position quickly; the system can achieve a greater energy-saving effect.
