Integrated Lighting Enabler System Using M2M Platforms for Enhancing Energy Efficiency

This paper proposes an integrated lighting enabler system (ILES) based on standard machine-to-machine(M2M) platforms. This system provides common services of end-to-and M2M communication for smartlighting system. It is divided into two sub-systems, namely end-device system and server system. On theserver side, the M2M platform OpenMTC is used to receive data from the sensors and send response foractivating actuators. At the end-device system, a programmable smart lighting device is connected to theactuators and sensors for communicating their data to the server. Some experiments have been done to provethe system concept. The experiment results show that the proposed integrated lighting enabler system iseffective to reduce the power consumption by 25.22% (in average). The proving of significance effect inreducing power consumption is measured by the Wilcoxon method.
