Introduction to 7 Typical Application Scenarios of Smart Street Lamps

With the growth of the economy, the urban infrastructure is constantly updated and iterated, and the traditional street light poles are gradually replaced by the street light poles with composite functions, which is the smart street lights we often hear. At the same time, the construction and deployment of 5G is also stimulating the development of the smart street light pole industry, and the market demand for smart street light poles is increasing.

As a new type of public infrastructure for smart city construction, smart light poles can realize typical business applications such as communication, public safety, smart lighting, environmental monitoring, smart transportation, new energy business and information release.

1. Communication business

5G network construction has a huge demand for sites, and more sites need to be added to meet coverage requirements. Smart street lights cover a wide area and a large number, which can provide massive site resources for 5G network construction. As a communication connection point, the smart street lamp can be extended to the outside in a wireless or wired manner. In addition to providing wireless base stations, the Internet of Things, edge computing, public WIFI, optical transmission and other business services.

(2) Public safety

To say that there are a large number of public infrastructure in the city with high coverage, street lights must be among them. Street lights are widely distributed in urban roads, streets and parks, and have a good penetration of densely populated areas. One of the major advantages and characteristics of smart street lamps is that they can be equipped with sensors and equipment. By combining monitoring cameras with intelligent equipment such as radio and alarm and remote management platform on the pole body of smart street lamps, business functions such as intelligent early warning, emergency call for help, license plate recognition and face recognition can be realized, which can effectively improve the efficiency of public security services.

3. Smart lighting

Connecting each lamp to the Internet through information sensing equipment can realize on-demand lighting and fine management of batch lamps, so as to achieve the purpose of energy saving, emission reduction, efficient operation and maintenance. Real-time/group turn-on, turn-off, dimming operation, circuit turn-on and turn-off operation, remote monitoring of street lamp operation status, operation parameters and power consumption, fault warning and alarm are all functions that intelligent street lamp intelligent lighting can realize.

4. Energy Business

At present, it mainly involves three parts: new energy vehicle charging pile, mobile phone charging and electric vehicle charging. By installing new energy vehicle charging piles, charging parking spaces can be reserved online to complete charging and electricity payment. If conditions permit, smart street lights can also be equipped with solar panels or wind power generation equipment to achieve urban green energy.

5. Smart transportation

By mounting high-position cameras to assist the traffic department in managing the identification of speeding, illegal parking and other violations, and the traffic flow detector can collect and transmit traffic status information in real time, such as traffic flow, lane average speed, lane congestion, etc.

6. Environmental monitoring

The meteorological environment monitoring system of intelligent street lamp collects environmental data and carries out big data analysis through cloud platform, and provides environmental information such as air quality, temperature and humidity, wind speed and direction, noise, electromagnetic radiation, light intensity, etc. in combination with local and remote push services of environmental data.

7. Information release

Mounted led display, broadcast audio and other equipment for information release, with wide spread, high effect, impact effect. In case of emergency events such as fire and earthquake, emergency broadcasting and warning lighting can be carried out through the multimedia information publishing system to inform the public to evacuate safely. At the same time, government information, traffic information and commercial advertisements can also be released in combination with LED screens. Smart light poles equipped with multimedia interactive terminals can also realize interactive communication between man and machine through sensors.

In short, the above is the relevant content sharing of the typical application scenarios of smart street lamps. With the development of emerging technologies such as 5G, Internet of Things, big data, AI, and multi-type information data sharing and linkage, richer innovative business applications will be spawned. Business applications of smart light poles can be deployed on demand, while taking into account future business and technology development needs.
