The ZigBee communication method, which is the most frequently applied to the LED lighting control system, has drawbacks of low-speed and low-capacity, and the communication failure possibility due to environmental influences is on the rise. Therefore, it is important to secure the communication reliability by applying an integrated interface with a wire-wireless dual-network. This paper developed a communication module, which has a platform converging and combining the ZigBee of USN environments with the PLC of power line communication environments, to implement a dualized communication interface system supporting the wire-wireless integrated protocol, and implemented a wire-wireless networking device and a control system software technology. As a result, it was automatically switched into the PLC communication within 4.4 seconds on average when there was an access failure in the ZigBee communication network, so a reliable communication network was built.

In this paper, we propose and implement the automated brightness control system using distance measuring sensor for reducing the power consumption of emotional lighting device. In order to reduce the power consumption of emotional lighting devices which express continuous color changes, the proposed device measures the distance continuously using ultrasonic sensor and by using this, it also performs PWM Dimming control. The lighting device is composed of micro controller, LED driver, ultrasonic sensor, communication module and so on. And the device performs the real time brightness control by adapting the measured distance information from ultrasonic sensor to PWM signals. From this experiment, we implement the active lighting system which minimizes unnecessary power consumption during user's absence by adapting existing energy reducing techniques.

Private Finance Initiative (PFI) involves long-term contracts where private entities invest in the construction and maintenance of street lighting facilities. The current implementation of PFI Smart Street Lighting Systems faces challenges in the fulfillment process, including discrepancies in quantities, coordination of power variations, delays in the deployment of smart systems, and issues with performance indicator scoring. These challenges disrupt the smooth execution of contractual obligations. Nevertheless, the adoption of intelligent systems in street lighting presents significant advantages in reducing energy consumption, extending the lifespan of fixtures, and enhancing maintenance efficiency. This study aims to analyze an ongoing project, applying the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) to identify crucial PFI indicators and their weights. The study explores areas of improvement in the project compared to traditional street lighting, aiming to provide solutions to the mentioned challenges. The results indicate that indicators such as PS3 (Lighting Service Continuity) with a weight of 0.384% and PS4 (Smooth Operation of the Smart Street Lightings Management System) with a weight of 0.274% have the highest impact on service performance. Additionally, the project involves replacing 162,000 streetlights, resulting in a yearly energy consumption reduction of approximately 70%, a decrease in monthly maintenance time from an average of 48 hours to 15 hours, and an expected reduction of 900,000 tons in carbon emissions during the project period. Value for Money (VfM) analysis suggests an annual reduction in government expenditures of NTD 66 million. This reveals that implementing PFI model is more advantageous than traditional street lighting procurement, as it allows the government to leverage contractor financing and alleviate the initial high costs of streetlight replacement, thereby reducing the overall costs of streetlight establishment and maintenance.

LED illumination has been developed from simple illumination to human oriented multi-functional system depending on the IT convergence trends. Thus, the convergence of IT technology such as various types of sensor and communication functions with application software can make saving of energy, and there are also several needs about the tailor-made illuminations requirements for the diverse users who want to take their own colors, strengths of the light. For the adaption of these kinds of intelligent system illumination, user oriented sensor and control should be possible. The LED lighting control system transmits and receives data via the Bluetooth mesh network and provides functions such as LED lighting control, LED lighting condition monitoring, energy usage monitoring, and energy peak point management. Therefore, in this paper, we suggest wireless communication platform and control system for the LED illumination control.

In the area of sensitivity engineering, by considering the relation between color and emotion expressed as an adjective word, the corresponding sensitivity word can be determined, By taking into consideration the relation between the brain wave measured from the human brain and the color temperature, the preferred lesson subject can be determined. From the decision of the sensitivity word and the lesson subject, we adjust the color temperature of RGB (Red, Green, Blue) LED. In addition, by using the information of the latitude and the longitude from GPS(Global Positioning System), we can calculate the on-line moving altitude of sun.
