Abstract
A Low-Carbon Economy (LCE) has been a heated economy topic throughout the world. The street lamp system is a large energy consumption system although it is indispensable part of the basic facilities of a city. So it is important for many scientific researchers to provide many solutions to save energy efficiently. In this paper, we design a simulation platform named PKU-STRAW-L that evaluates the energy consumption based on famous Java simulator JiST/STRAW. We also design a test bed system that intelligently controls the street lamp based on Peking University STRAW. The intelligent lamp control system is based on the VANET's DSRC communication and focuses on some lamp-lighting strategies when vehicle drives on cross road, straight road and pre-lighting. By using this platform we can evaluate the power-saving rate of this intelligent street lamp system.
