Intelligent lighting control system

Abstract

This paper presents an adaptive architecture that allows centralized control of public lighting and intelligent management, in order to economise on lighting and maintain maximum comfort status of the illuminated areas. To carry out this management, architecture merges various techniques of artificial intelligence (AI) and statistics such as artificial neural networks (ANN), multiagent systems (MAS), EM algorithm, methods based on ANOVA and a Service Oriented Aproach (SOA). It performs optimization both energy consumption and economically from a modular architecture and fully adaptable to the current lighting systems possible. The architecture has been tested and validated successfully and continues its development today. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2014.
