Abstract

The purpose of this paper was to make a LED light control module using Zigbee. The module was made so that brightness of the LED light changes according to the ambient brightness. A 8-bit microcontroller was used to implement the module to enable LED dimming and wireless light intensity measurement. Using the proposed method, power consumption can be improved by up to 48% on average, with 3.4-0.4W changes in power. The measured ambient light intensity values are converted from analog to digital and outputted as a PWM waveform. According to the output waveform and changes in the current outputted from the LED driver, the brightness of the LED light is controlled. Also, Zigbee with close-range wireless communication capabilities was used to enable wireless transmission of light intensity measurements.

본 논문은 Zigbee를 이용한 LED 조명 제어 모듈을 구성 하고자 하였다. LED 조명 제어 모듈은 주변 밝기의 변화에 따라 LED 조명의 밝기를 제어하도록 하였으며, 논문에서 구성된 제어 모듈은 8bit 마이크로 컨트롤러를 사용하여 LED 디밍 및 무선 조도 측정이 가능하도록 구성하였다. 제안된 방법을 적용시 소비전력량 3.4~0.4W의 변화로 평균 48%까지 개선될 수 있다. 측정된 주변 조도값을 ADC 변환하여 설정된 PWM 파형으로 출력하게된다. 이렇게 출력된 파형에 따라 LED Driver에서 출력되는 전류값 변화에 따라 LED 조명의 밝기를 제어하게 된다. 또한 근거리 무선통신이 가능한 Zigbee를 이용하여 무선을 이용한 조도 측정값을 전송가능 하도록 구성하였다.
