As a new type of municipal utility, the smart street light not only has conventional lighting capability, but also has various intelligent devices and sensors, which can realize spontaneous charging of the sun; video surveillance, environmental monitoring and other applications. LoRaWAN technology can realize long-distance transmission and various interfaces, which can well solve the requirements of smart street lights for data collection from various sensors.

Traditional street lighting uses a single control method that relies on a large amount of manpower and is inefficient, and conventional street lighting has high energy consumption, is not well maintained and consumes a lot of energy. Due to the popularity of network technology, a new type of street lighting system based on zigbee, NB-ioT and other communication means to achieve

 

With low cost, low power consumption and high stability, LoRaWAN can be quickly networked in towns or rural areas, near or far. And with only one controller, it can handle many smart streetlights, and many smart streetscapes are now using LoRaWAN technology. The design of the solution includes: street lights, LoRa gateway, background monitoring cloud computing, etc. LoRa module contains various sensors, such as vehicle speed, monitoring, etc., which can collect various data on the street and the surrounding environment; LoRaWAN gateway can collect all kinds of data on the street and transmit it to the cloud in time, so that the road traffic information on the street can be accurately processed and information.

 

MinewSemi's LoRaWAN module MS21SF1 can be used flexibly in smart streetlight applications and is particularly suitable for long duration and high frequency data collection. The device's data is transmitted to the dispatch center through the internal integrated MinewSemi LoRa function, enabling flexible network configuration and management of the street to be performed; by processing real-time data such as remote monitoring and speed measurement of street lights, it can meet the need for intelligent transportation, improve the operational efficiency and management of street lights, and achieve energy savings.

 

LoRaWAN-based streetlights can reduce electricity costs without causing any damage to municipal facilities and equipment. LoRaWAN technology aims to reduce costs and energy consumption, which allows this application to operate efficiently. With the rapid development of urbanization in China, the issue of energy saving and emission reduction of smart cities is on the agenda. The smart street view system with LoRaWAN module is a new type of urban infrastructure with low energy consumption, multiple functions and smooth transmission; it can surely take its place in the development of smart cities.
