Exploitation of Public Lighting Infrastructural Possibilities

Paper deals with the possibility for exploitation of public lighting infrastructure for multiple purposes. Public lighting infrastructure is not fully utilized. Therefore there is a great potential to reduce electricity and operational costs by establishing smart public lighting. The first step in that intention is to replace existing lamps with LED-based technology that will result with reduction of energy and operational costs. By connecting those LED lamps municipalities can additionally cut energy costs which is result of real time intelligent management and faster response. Smart public lighting includes many functional units such as remote management system, sensors for traffic monitoring, traffic counter, digital traffic signs, integrated electric vehicle charging stations and much more. The combination of all these features makes public lighting system smarter and more exploited. At the same time this is a good way to establish the smart lighting system and an intelligent traffic system. The paper presents public lighting operational profiles with analysis of dimming possibilities of LED lighting lamps.
