Abstract
In this letter, we propose an energy efficient ZigBee-based outdoor light monitoring and control system that can monitor and handle outdoor lights more efficiently as compared to the conventional systems. The proposed system uses the GPS-based wireless devices which allow more efficient lamps management. The designed system uses sensors to control and guarantee the optimal system parameters. Today, population density shifts towards urban centers have resulted in the constant rise of energy consumption in cities. Due to the cost and technical restrictions of strengthening the infrastructure at the same rate, alternative energy sources must be sought in order to meet these increased energy demands. This study presents a street lighting system which consumes minimum energy from the city network. Here the lights are switched via IoT. The voltage consumed by the system is also monitored remotely.
