SSL: Smart Street Lamp Based on Fog Computing for Smarter Cities
2018
Both safety and energy conservation are very important advantages of smart cities. Namely, the city street lamp is correlated with both safety and energy conservation. Therefore, a street lamp is an indispensable part of the smart cities. However, current street lamps have lack of smart characteristics, which increases both danger and energy consumption. In order to address these problems, a smart street lamp (SSL) based on the fog computing for smarter cities is proposed in this paper. The advantages of the proposed SSL are as follows: 1) fine management, because every street lamp can be operated independently; 2) dynamic brightness adjustment, all street lamps can be adjusted dynamically; and 3) autonomous alarm on abnormal states, each street lamp can report the abnormal status independently, such as broken, stolen, and so on. The experimental results showed that the proposed SSL can improve the energy efficiency and reduce danger.
