Abstract
<p class="0abstract">IoT concept gained tremendous momentum in this century's technological advancements because it has efficiently connected various devices wirelessly. The ESP8266 Wi-Fi serial transceiver module is one of the most used devices for IoT applications. This paper designs the IoT-based smart street lighting system using ESP8266 configured as a Mesh network. The ESP8266 was instructed (programmed) to control the light level by producing a PWM signal, then it sends a dimmer value and reads the sensor's data. We can access our system wirelessly via a web server. The overall system was successful as a smart street lighting system in a wireless Mesh environment. This research result is also compared to the existing similar project in terms of the system complexity aspect.</p>
Highlights
Smart street lighting system based on IoT is one of the solutions to minimize the energy consumption within the city as well as reduce the crews on site in maintenance processes [1]
The designed Web server for smart street lighting system has four main features, i.e., 1) it can display the sensor data which is integrated into gateways such as light sensor, temperature, and humidity sensor; 2) display the information about mesh routing table from each LED streetlights
Based on the test result, the Mesh table can show the Mesh network routing as shown in Fig. 4 where node 3948426995 acts as a gateway (HOST GW)
Summary
Smart street lighting system based on IoT is one of the solutions to minimize the energy consumption within the city as well as reduce the crews on site in maintenance processes [1]. IoT technology is being integrated into street lights that can be monitored remotely and provide notification to the admin user. In previous work [2], we have reported the ESP8266 application for street lighting with a single node. The motivation of this paper is to add more nodes (street light) in our system. The ESP8266 supports a feature to be configured as Mesh. Through this configuration, the street lights can communicate with each other wirelessly. The wireless connection of the street light is still be maintained
