A Traffic Flow Adaptive Energy Saving Scheme for Smart Lighting Systems

Abstract

Traditional lighting systems suffer from the problem of low energy efficiency and low illumination quality due to its disappointing management. To address this issue, in this paper, a novel traffic-flow adaptive scheme of smart lighting systems is proposed on the basis of the cyber-physical cloud system. The cyber-physical cloud system consists of the digital twin and cyber-physical system. The operation of the lighting system is simulated in the counterpart twin system with the digital twin technology. The cyber-physical system realizes data collection, information interaction, analysis, and processing, as well as complex computation and remote control. The traffic adaptive scheme works according to the brightness sequence to improves the energy efficiency of the lighting system and provide higher illumination quality for drivers. Extensive simulation results verify the proposed control scheme could improve the energy efficiency of lighting systems.
