    This document proposes a design and implementation of an FPGA-based solar power saving system for street lighting and automatic traffic control. The system uses sensors like LDRs and IR sensors along with an FPGA to monitor traffic and light levels to efficiently control street lights and traffic lights, reducing energy consumption. It allows varying the timing of traffic lights based on real-time traffic density readings from each direction. The system was successfully prototyped using FPGA and sensors on a Verilog platform. Future work could involve powering the system entirely with solar energy to further reduce costs and utilize renewable sources.

    Design and Implementation of FPGA based Solar Power

    Saving System for Street Lighting and Automatic


    Traffic Controller

    Abstract:-
    Solar energy is one of the major renewable sources and is non polluted. Hence, the
    utilization of this energy is essential everywhere where the maximum possibility of
    utilization of this energy is there. One of such possibility is solar power to street lights and
    traffic systems. Hence, an attempt is made to implement the solar power saver system for
    street lights and automatic traffic control unit. Street lighting provides a safe night time
    environment for all road users including pedestrians. Providing street lighting is one of the
    most important and expensive responsibilities of a city. Lighting can account for 10–38% of
    the total energy bill in typical cities worldwide. The main objective of the present study is to
    reduce the power consumption and efficient utilization of renewable sources for the
    application of street lightening and traffic signaling. Hence, this paper is aimed at design
    and implementation of an automatic system to control the traffic and reduce energy
    consumption of a town’s public lighting system up to the maximum possible extent.
    In present scenario, we are facing the traffic problem in the rural as well as urban areas. It is
    essential to control the traffic density in an efficient manner in such a way that, it can
    control according to the priority of the more traffic density present in the street by using
    sensor network. The proposed idea was implemented by FPGA and sensor network on
    VERILOG platform.

    Objectives:-
    • To decrease power consumption by automatic street lighting.
    • To provide the efficient automation of traffic management.

    Softwares/Hardwares Required for Project:-


    • FPGA (FIELD PROGRAMMABLE GATE ARRAY)
    • IR sensor (333)
    • LDR (Light Dependent Resistor GL5528)
    • Operation amplifier (LMV321)
    • Schmitt trigger (SN74LVC2G14)
    • Transistor (BC547)
    • LEDS (Light Emitting Diodes)
    • XILINX (14.1version)
    • VERILOG HDL
    Results:-
    • If there is traffic in south side and if there is no sunlight then the LDR in the south
    side will glow and the green traffic light also glows in south side..
    • If there is traffic in west side and if there is no sunlight then the LDR in the west side
    will glow and the green traffic light also glows in west side.
    • f there is traffic in north side and if there is no sunlight then the LDR in the north side
    will glow and the green traffic light also glows in north side.
    • If there is traffic in east side and if there is no sunlight then the LDR in the east side
    will glow and the green traffic light also glows in east side.

    Conclusions and Future Scopes:-


    The design implementation and prototype verification of Automatic Street light and traffic
    control system is done successfully by using FPGA based system. It requires the only initial
    cost for designing and installation and not for utilization. Hence, such systems are very
    much useful for the government to reduce the utilization of conventional power. Therefore,
    such systems are once implemented on a large scale can bring significant reduction of the
    power consumption caused by street lights and traffic control lights. This initiative will help
    us to save the energy and meet the domestic and industrial needs. This idea can overcome
    the drawback of conventional traffic controllers where, the traffic signaling is done in equal
    intervals of time. But in the proposed system, with the capability of providing varying green
    cycle interval based on dynamic traffic load changes at every lane in a 4-way junction
    control.
    In the proposed system, only power saving technique is implemented. In the place of
    conventional power, we can use solar power as a source to the proposed system so that
    renewable source also used.
