Description

LED street light control method and apparatus {STREET LIGHT CONTROL METHOD AND APPARATUS}

The present invention relates to a LED street light control method and apparatus.

 In general, street light is a lighting facility installed along the street for the safety and security of road traffic, and it is suitable for installation places such as highways, main roads of commercial areas, commercial roads, and residential district roads. Kind is used.

As a light source of a street lamp, a high-pressure mercury lamp, a fluorescent lamp, a sodium lamp, an ordinary bulb, and an LED lamp are used.

A conventional street light is composed of a strut 1 installed along a horizontal side as shown in FIG. 1 and a lamp cover 2 provided at an upper side of the strut 1, and the inner side of the lamp cover 2. Lamps mainly composed of mercury lamps and sodium lamps are installed.

However, such a conventional street light is turned on or off by a manager according to the time / traffic time or traffic volume using the time data of the GPS programmed in the control system stored in the street lamp. Is controlled by preprogrammed, recorded point / light off time, and other sudden variables that occur instantaneously around street lamps, such as illuminance, accidents, average traffic and other traffic changes at specific times, showers, etc. There was a problem in that it is not possible to immediately respond to the on / off time and illumination of the situation.

In order to solve the problems described above, the present invention performs group control of LED streetlights using GPS information, and installs various sensors including cameras, temperature / humidity / motion sensors, and the like to read camera images. It is an object of the present invention to provide a street light control method and apparatus that can immediately control the point / turn off and illuminance of the LED street light according to the surrounding situation by reading the signal output from the field.

LED street light control device of the present invention for achieving the above object is a variety of sensors, including LED, GPS module, camera, temperature / humidity / motion sensor, and transmits the signals output from the GPS module and the camera and the sensor to the server Street light composed of a control module for controlling the operation of the receiving module and various components; The server is connected to the street lamp by wireless or wired and reads the signal output from the street lamp to determine whether the street lamp is turned on or off, and outputs an operation control signal to the street lamp.

In the above, the server performs a group control for controlling several of the street lights / lights at the same time, and differently control the lights / lights and illumination of the street lights in response to the situation around the street lights, including traffic volume and weather.

In addition, the LED street light control method of another feature of the present invention, the server reads the signal transmitted from the street light and transmits the point / turn off and illuminance control signal of the street light to the street light, the signal transmitted from the street light is output from the camera There are video image data around the street, and signals from various sensors and GPS location data. The server processes the camera image image data and judges the signal output from the sensor to determine the surrounding conditions of the street lamp. Outputs

According to the present invention as described above, since the street light is immediately turned on / off and illuminance according to the surrounding situation, there is an effect that the maintenance and management efficiency of the street lamp is improved.

In addition, there is an effect of preventing the power is consumed in unnecessary places, and responds immediately in a situation where bright illumination such as a traffic accident or a shower is required to lower the occurrence rate of safety accidents.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail.

2 is related to the LED street light control apparatus according to the present invention, the street light 100, the GPS module 10 for confirming the position by transmitting and receiving a signal with a satellite, a camera 20, temperature / humidity / motion sensor, etc. Various sensors 30 and LEDs of the 40 and the transmission / reception module 50 for communicating with the outside, and the control unit 60 for controlling the various components described above, the plurality of street lights 100 It is connected to the server 200 by wireless or wired and outputs the identification code for identifying the corresponding street lamp in the process of transmitting the output signal of the GPS module 10 and the camera 20 and the various sensors 30 to the outside. It may be.

The server 200 includes an input unit including a keyboard, a touch panel, and a mouse, an output unit including a monitor and a speaker, and includes its own memory, and records and reads data transmitted from the street lamp 100. It detects the surrounding situation of the street lamp and outputs the control signal according to the street lamp.

In the above, the server 200 may simultaneously control the turning on / off of a plurality of street lights installed in a certain range, at this time, the plurality of street lights may be divided into even and odd numbers according to the installation location to control the lighting and turning off. That is, the even number may be turned on and the odd number may be turned off in a manner that all may be controlled. In addition, a plurality of street lamps may be simultaneously controlled.

In this way, the server determines the location of the street lamps based on the GPS signal transmitted from the street lamps, and comprehensively judges the sunrise / mole time and illumination, the amount of movement of the vehicle and the pedestrian, and simultaneously controls the lighting and lighting time by group. .

The server reads an image of a signal output from a camera among signals transmitted from a street light, determines a moving amount of a vehicle and a pedestrian, that is, a traffic amount, and adjusts a dot / light off time and illuminance to output a control signal to the corresponding street light. .

In addition, in a climate that disturbs operation such as fog or shower by judging the signal output from the sensor, the lighting ratio of the street lamp (refers to increasing the ratio of the street lamps that light all the street lamps or turn on the lamps in group control). And control to improve illuminance.

In addition, the server determines the data transmitted from the street light, when the management of the street light, the server alerts the administrator via wireless or wired, so that easy management of the street light.
