Abstract
The paper covers analysis and investigation of lighting automation system in low-traffic long-roads. The main objective is to provide optimal solution between expensive safe design that utilizes continuous street lighting system at night for the entire road, or inexpensive design that sacrifices the safety, relying on using vehicles lighting, to eliminate the problem of high cost energy consumption during the night operation of the road. By taking into account both of these factors, smart lighting automation system is proposed using Pattern Recognition Technique applied on vehicle number-plates. In this proposal, the road is sectionalized into zones, and based on smart Pattern Recognition Technique, the control system of the road lighting illuminates only the zone that the vehicles pass through. Economic analysis is provided in this paper to support the value of using this design of lighting control system.
Highlights
Various road classifications existed in terms of traffic such as; Principal Arterials, Minor Arterials, Rural Collectors, Local Roads and Very Low-Volume Roads

Summary
Various road classifications existed in terms of traffic such as; Principal Arterials, Minor Arterials, Rural Collectors, Local Roads and Very Low-Volume Roads. When PIR sensor detects a human or a moving object vehicle LED light is turned on. All systems above have used motion sensors to detect the object movement whatever this object is, and control the lights in terms of switching ON/OFF or dimming. For the suggested system in this paper that needs to be used for low traffic road, movement of only vehicle is needed to be recognized and switch on the light or dim them. This paper tries to design automation lighting system for long road with low traffic, where no need to switch on the lights for movement of any object except the vehicles. Efficient, safe and cost effective solution to design automated lighting system suitable for long roads with low-traffic is provided.
