- LoRaWAN street light controller with dimmer
- GSM + LoRa street light RTU(Remote Terminal Unit)
LoRa street light controller
LoRa street light controller is a wireless connectivity system for a street light with optional dimming capability. This control unit requires a GSM + LoRa street light feed controller unit to be present within 3KM range of the streetlight to function properly.
LoRa street light controller can be installed on an existing LED street light.
Advantages of using a LoRa street light controller
- Provides a unique identity to every light
- Provides wireless on/off to the light using the GSM + LoRa street light feed controller unit
- Detects and reports faults in street light instantly
- Allows independent control of street light on calendar and timer basis
- Detects grounding/earthing related faults in the street light
- Detects and reports low luminance / output in light
- Extends life of LED by detecting and reporting overheating of light unit
- Allows instant manual control of lights from software control system.
Features of LoRa street light controller
- IP66 weather proof, poly-carbonate enclosure with UV stabilization
- built-in SMPS for controller unit
- built-in power consumption detection for street lamp
- built-in 2 ADC ports for luminance and temperature detection
- built-in 25dbm LoRa modem for wireless communication up to 3KM
LoRaWAN street light controller
LoRaWAN street light controller is LoRaWAN-alliance network compatible street light control system for street lights. This product can link to any available LoRaWAN network in the area and unlike our LoRa street light controller, DOES NOT require a GSM + LoRa street light feed controller unit to function.
LoRa street light controller with dimmer
Dimmer system over LoRa has a lot of energy saving benefits over conventional LED street lights. A dimmer based system allows LED to be adjusted in over 100 settings of dim control.
Advantages of using a LoRa street light controller with dimmer
- Moonlight based dim control for maximum energy savings. 10-15% energy saving.
- Early morning/evening energy saving system.4-8% energy savings.
- Extends life of LED and prevents over-heating by dynamically adjusting dim level. Up to 10,000 hours additional life for LED lamps.
- Occupancy sensor extension allows lamps to be lit at low level until a pedestrian or vehicle is detected.
- Mesh network over LoRa allows several lights neighboring lights to become bright as soon as a pedestrian or vehicle is detected.
- 60-80% energy savings can be made in residential colonies street lights and low traffic streets when occupancy sensor based mesh systems are used.

GSM + LoRa street light RTU(Remote Terminal Units)
A street light feed controlled is a local server for a group of lights. This feeder unit typically controls 10-500 lights is an area.
A feeder system has dual connectivity for GSM for connectivity to central control room and LoRa connectivity for street lights. A feeder system is not required for LoRaWAN controllers but it is an important part of LoRa street light controllers.
- WAN connectivity over GSM 2G/3G/4G models.
- WAN connectivity for Ethernet, Wi-Fi models available.
- Overall energy consumption tracking of lights.
- Regulated power supply for lights
- built-in power backup for feeder unit
- built-in storage space for recording street-light data when GSM connectivity isn't available temporarily
A ready application stack allows LoRa street light manufacturers to integrate their products into smart city systems across the globe.
- Staff can use Laptop/mobile for LiteCloud's web interface
- IP network
- Your own software or managed LiteCloud server
- IP network using 2G/4G GSM connectivity
- Streetlight Controller Gateway Unit
- 220v electricity cable controlled by gateway unit in single or 3-phases
- LUCI (LoRa Universal Control Instrument) - (Optional: for individual light control/dimming)
Challenges of conventional street lighting systems
- street lights can only be turned on / off.
- street lamp control is done wither through timed scheduler switches or manually
- street lamp failures are difficult to detect as multiple lamps are connected to a single feeder system
- Present street light systems are not adaptive to local weather
