SSL: Smart Street Lamp Based On Fog Networking for Smart Cities

Abstract

Energy conservation and higher performance could be a should in sensible street lamps assembled in smart cities. the prevailing street lights don't seem to be appropriate for sensible cities wherever the upkeep and security is quiet sophisticated. so as to deal with these issues, a sensible streetlight (SSL) is planned in our idea. each sensible lamp may be operated severally which ends in an exceedingly fine management. all told sensible street lamps brightness may be adjusted dynamically. every streetlight will report the abnormal standing severally with an automatic alarm. The experimental results showed that planned SSL will improve energy potency and cut back danger. Intelligent street lamps are planned supported several communication technologies, like ZigBee, LPWA, GSM , and so on . moreover, there are several alternative communication technologies, like Bluetooth, UMTS/LTE, Wi-Fi , and so on. every of those communication technologies has its own characteristic. the road lamp is provided with some sensors, like location detector, infrared detector, and light-weight detector, to make associate degree intelligent sensing streetlight. Consequently, brightness of street lamps may be adjusted. As already mentioned, safety is one in all the foremost necessary characteristics of the sensible cities, and periodic maintenance of street lamps could be a key parameter for safety. The shorter the upkeep is, the higher the security is going to be.
