Application of Genetic Algorithm in optimizing redesign of street lighting

Abstract

Street lighting system is designed to give comfort to users by considering the energy saving aspect, lighting quality and suitability with the lighting standard. This research aims to describe the results of optimizing the redesign of street-lighting using the artificial intelligence method, Genetic Algorithm. This algorithm is applied based on the relationship between energy use and public street lighting parameters such as the average illumination, wide roads, high pole, and various other parameters that correspond to the lighting standards in Indonesia. The redesign process is using MATLAB for Genetic Algorithm simulation and DIALux for implement of design results. The results of this study indicate that this method is very good and recommended to the designer in determining the design parameters.
