Design of intelligent streetlights monitoring device based on SMS of GSM

In order to save energy and effective management of street lights, a intelligent streetlights monitoring device is designed. The hardware part of the device are made up of MCU, GSM module, circuit of street lights, clock circuit, light controlling circuit,a current detection circuit and so on. Software includes the main program, the subprogram of reading short message, subprogram of replying SMS, etc.. The software is programmed with C language, it is compiled on the Keil platform, after the success, the hex file is generated, download it to the MCU. Experimental verification, it can be realized the message to control the lights on and off, also it can be realized real-time clock to control the lights on and off or according to the light to control the street lamp. When the street lamp is damaged, it can automatically alarm. © Guangli Long; Licensee Bentham Open.
