Wireless sensor network for smart street lighting

This thesis discusses the design of a \ac{wsn} for Smart city street lighting, a system that automates street lighting by detecting traffic and controlling lights with wireless radio frequency modules. The system is designed to be compatible with preexisting lighting infrastructure and is easy to install and maintain. Top down design approach is used in the creation of the system, the overall architecture is defined as well as following sub-systems that make up the network. Wireless nodes on street lamps form modular networks that use sensors to detect vehicles and illuminate the road while there is traffic. In the first part, reasons for the need of such a system is presented as well as an introduction to the project. Secondly, individual components are compared and analyzed to find which best suits the design. Lastly, the system was contrived, and a prototype is put together that simulates functionality in parts of the system. Design aspects and possible future developments are discussed.
