The server 110 stores a location information map (hereinafter, referred to as a "street lamp map") in which a street light is installed.

In addition, the server 110 calculates a moving speed of the user from the GPS signal, and calculates an estimated time of arrival of the streetlight within a threshold distance from the GPS signal among the streetlights on the pedestrian path.

In addition, the server 110 transmits the street light map to the application.

In addition, the server 110 sends a confirmation notification to the application when the user deviates from the pedestrian path set by the user or does not pass the street light within the expected time of arrival.

In addition, the server 110 transmits a street lamp control signal for lighting the street lamp to the street lamp controller 130.

In addition, the server 110 may receive street light information from the street light controller 130.

Here, the street light information is information on whether the street light is normally turned on and off by receiving a street light control signal from the server 110.

In addition, the server 110 may transmit the streetlight map and the received pedestrian path, GPS signal, confirmation notification, and streetlight information to the management server 140.

Hereinafter, a method of lighting a street light using a GPS signal between a server, a smart device, and a street light controller will be described.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a lighting method of a streetlight lighting system using a GPS signal according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 2, first, an application of a smart device is executed (S1000) and a pedestrian is connected to the application. The route and the GPS signal transmission are set (S2000).

Next, the server receives the pedestrian path and the GPS signal from the application and searches for a street light in the pedestrian path that is less than the threshold distance with the GPS signal (S3000).

Next, the moving speed of the user is obtained from the GPS signal, and the estimated estimated time of arrival is calculated from the moving speed of the user until the searched street light (S4000).

Next, the previously stored street light map is transmitted to the application (S5000).

In addition, when the server is linked with the management server, a street light map is transmitted to the management server together with the GPS signal.

Meanwhile, the application receiving the street light map displays a user's location on the street light map using a GPS signal.

Next, it is determined whether the street lamp is turned on or off and transmits a control signal to the street lamp controller (S6000).

More specifically, in step S6000 of determining whether the street light is turned on or off, and transmitting a control signal to the street light controller, first, check whether the user is located within a pedestrian path range set by the user (S6100).

If the user is not within the range of the pedestrian path, a confirmation notification is transmitted to the application so that the user can recognize it (S6200).

In addition, when the server is linked with the management server, the confirmation notification is transmitted to the application and the management server at the same time.

Next, if the user is within the pedestrian path range, it is checked whether the current time has passed the estimated time of arrival (S6300).

If the street light has not passed within the estimated time of arrival, the server transmits a confirmation notification to the application so that the user can recognize it (S6200).

In addition, when the server is linked with the management server, the confirmation notification is transmitted to the application and the management server at the same time.

Next, if it does not exceed the estimated time of arrival, the user checks whether the distance to the searched street light is less than or equal to the set threshold (S6400).

Next, when the distance between the user and the searched street light is less than the threshold value, the server transmits a lighting control signal to the street light controller to turn on the street light (S6500).

In addition, the server receives street light information from the street light controller.

In addition, when the server and the management server is interlocked, the received street light information is transmitted to the management server.

In this case, when the street lamp controller does not operate properly, an administrator may directly access the server and control the lighting and turning off of the street lamp controller.

If the distance between the user and the searched street light exceeds the threshold value, the process is repeated from the pedestrian path departure check step (S6100).

That is, according to the lighting system using the GPS signal of the present invention, by using the pedestrian path and the GPS signal set by the user, the street light with the shortest distance from the user is provided in the pedestrian path to provide a view, and the user is linked with the management server. It is possible to monitor the walking paths of pedestrians, which can save pedestrians' visibility and safety as well as prevent unnecessary lighting of street lights, thereby saving energy consumption.

As described above, the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to preferred embodiments, but is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and is provided to those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
