Implementation of Energy Management Structure for Street Lighting Systems

Model Based Design approach for Implementation of PHEV Energy Management

Hardware implementation of the Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) control strategy is an important stage of the development of the vehicle electric control unit (ECU). This paper introduces Model-Based Design (MBD) approach for implementation of PHEV energy management. Based on this approach, implementation of the control algorithm on an electronic hardware is performed using automatic co...

The design and implementation of an energy efficient street lighting monitoring and control system

.The reduction of electrical energy consumption has been a highly debated issue on a European level and represents an important topic. This paper presents the design and implementation of a street lighting monitoring and control system using a WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) communication protocol, which has the ability to incorporate a high number of nodes. The main advantages of this system con...

An energy efficient pedestrian aware Smart Street Lighting system

Purpose – Conventional street lighting systems in areas with a low frequency of passersby are online most of the night without purpose. The consequence is that a large amount of power is wasted meaninglessly. With the broad availability of flexible-lighting technology like light-emitting diode lamps and everywhere available wireless internet connection, fast reacting, reliably operating, and po...

Street Lighting Disturbs Commuting Bats

Anthropogenic disturbance is a major cause of worldwide declines in biodiversity. Understanding the implications of this disturbance for species and populations is crucial for conservation biologists wishing to mitigate negative effects. Anthropogenic light pollution is an increasing global problem, affecting ecological interactions across a range of taxa and impacting negatively upon critical ...
