Özet:

This study presents the design and implementation of a computer-based real-time demonstration setup for dynamic highway tunnel lighting control research studies. The energy-efficient and controllable lighting systems stand out worldwide because of energy efficiency objectives and carbon footprint reduction goals of the countries. An LED (Light Emitting Diode) armature-based highway lighting systems are frequently utilized in recent years due to lighting efficiency, energy efficiency, long life, environmentally and cost-friendly structure of the LEDs as well as zero ultraviolet emissions of them. In this study, the LED-based dynamic tunnel lighting control approach has been implemented through the proposed demonstration setup which is a typical real-time software-controlled hardware. The parts of the proposed demonstration setup have been introduced and detailed to help with some upgrade studies in the future. The demonstration setup has been tested in some case studies, then the obtained results have been discussed and introduced. In the future, the proposed system can be upgraded and utilized for advanced control studies thanks to its computer-based and simulation environment connection capability.
