AUTOMATIC STREET LAMP USING SOLAR ENERGY EFFICIENT BASED ON ZIGBEE NETWORK

Abstract :  This project presents automatic street lamp using solar energy efficiency based on ZigBee network. In this project, eco-friendly solar energy as source energy for street lighting system in which street lamp will glow up automatically if there is passing vehicles or human beings. Backup power is also available for this street lighting system, during winter season and rainy season. This back up power is generated by piezoelectric sensor with help of vehicle passing by it and produces energy. The piezoelectric will convert mechanical energy into electrical energy which will charge the battery.

 EXISTING SYSTEM :

 Wireless mesh network of zigBee nodes combines advanced and traditional controlling features. The comprises of zigbee based mesh networked streetlamps and management software that offers real time monitoring and control of lighting system. Each lamp is integrated with zigBee node and the controller module along with ballast actuator. The controller interconnects light sensor, ballast actuator and radio communication module. The system is remotely managed through developed software that allow B operator to implement different strategies for saving as end.

 DISADVANTAGE :

 According to Fabio Leccese, he introduce new street lighting system and combined three technologies LED remote control technology and solar technology which are used differently in previous street lighting system. He used all these technology into his new street lighting system.

 PROPOSED SYSTEM :

 This project aims for saving the energy and the lamp will automatically glow on or off when vehicle or man approach near to the lamp IR sensor will detect the vehicle or man. When far vehicle or man goes away from the lamp will automatically glow off .This process will go on for remaining lamp. We are using piezoelectric for generating backup power during winter season or rainy season. Both energy sources are eco-friendly.

 ADVANTAGE :

 Additional to this idea, we use back up power which is generated by Piezo electric and this Piezo electric convert vehicles mechanical energy into electrical energy which may be useful during rainy and winter season to glow up street lamp. On Sunny day energy for street lamp is given by solar panel.When vehicles approach near to street lamp post, the light will automatically glow up with help of detection of IR sensors,After the vehicles has passed this lamp and light will glow off. This process will go on and consumes less energy.Both power sources to street lamp are eco-friendly to environment and cost.
