To send. On the other hand, when the moving object detection signal is generated from the auxiliary street lights N1 to N7, the secondary street lights N1 to N7 are turned on by the second brightness, and the auxiliary street lights N1 to N7 are turned on from the main street lights M1. , M2, M3) to transmit the moving object detection signal. Here, the first brightness is about 10% to 90% of the maximum brightness of the street lamp, the second brightness is about 100% of the maximum brightness of the street lamp.

On the other hand, as another example of the lighting control, when the moving object detecting signal is generated in the specific auxiliary street light (N1), the lighting is made to the second brightness (100% of the maximum brightness of the street lamp) in the specific auxiliary street light (N1), At the same time, when the moving object detecting signal is transmitted from the specific auxiliary street light N1 to the main street light M1, the lighting control signal set to the third brightness (10% to 90% of the highest brightness of the street light) from the main street light M1. Is transmitted to all the auxiliary street lights N1 to N2, so that the entire auxiliary street lights N1 to N2 are turned on as the third brightness. This is to easily respond to the moving direction of the moving object by lighting the entire auxiliary street lights (N1 ~ N2) around the main street light (M1) when the moving object is detected (S3).

Subsequently, when the moving object detection signal does not occur during the set time, the auxiliary street lights N1 to N7 except for the main street lights M1, M2, and M3 are turned off or turned on at the minimum brightness of the set values (S4 to S5). ).

On the other hand, when a moving object is detected from the infrared sensor 121 or the CMOS sensor 122, it is determined whether the person or the vehicle is turned on by analyzing the analysis unit 13 to determine whether to turn on. In addition, the controller 15 checks the occurrence time of the moving object detection signal and determines that the moving object is a fast moving object when the moving object detection signal is greater than or equal to the set value, that is, when the moving object detection signal is input from the auxiliary street or the like for more than a predetermined value for a unit time. All or part of the groups I, II, and III are turned on to cope with the rapid movement of the moving object.

5 is a flowchart illustrating an inspection process of a street lamp according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 5, the streetlight manager checks whether the lamp 18 is turned on by using the onkey 30 using the remote control device RC of the streetlight, and uses the offkey 31. It is checked whether the lamp 18 is driven by checking whether the lamp 18 is turned off (S11). If a problem occurs in driving the lamp 18, the replacement operation may be performed (S12 to S13).

Then, the street lamp manager operates the operation key 32 to input the address of the street lamp, so that the lighting pattern of the street lamp is displayed on the terminal display unit 35. In addition, the display of the corresponding position may be performed through the position information transmitted from the GPS 11. Meanwhile, the streetlight manager may perform the control of checking the displayed information to maintain the current state or to set the lighting pattern differently. That is, the address and lighting pattern of the corresponding street light are input and transmitted to the short range wireless transmission / reception unit 17 of the street light through the short range wireless communication unit 34 of the remote control device RC of the street light (S14 to S15). In addition, the mode change that can be set by changing the functions of the main street lights (M1, M2, M3) or the functions of the auxiliary street lights (N1 ~ N7) using the remote control device RC of the street lamp. Such lighting patterns and modes are stored in the storage unit 16 of the street lamp (S16). This completes the inspection of the street light (S17).

As described above, the present invention intelligently responds to the ambient illuminance that varies from time to time depending on the natural environment such as surrounding environment, seasonal environment, sunrise / sunset, and ensures the same illuminance at all times, and also controls the lighting of the street lamp 18. / The power off control saves the power consumed by the street light.

In addition, it is possible to save the power consumed by the street lamp due to the controlled lighting / off control of the street lamp 18 in response to the objects around the street lamp other than the seasons, people, cars.

In addition, since the on / off of the street lamp can be controlled wirelessly from the lower part of the street lamp at the time of initial installation and maintenance of the street lamp, it is possible to facilitate the maintenance.
