LIKELITE provides smart outdoor LED lighting solutions for municipal roads, urban streets, highways, public infrastructure and other large-scale roadway applications.
The solution combines LED Street Lights, microwave motion sensing, light control, timer control, lighting design, onsite metering and project installation into an integrated roadway lighting system. It is designed for engineering companies, EPC contractors, municipalities and project buyers requiring controllable outdoor lighting rather than conventional fixed-output street lights.
A representative application is the Abu Dhabi urban roadway smart lighting upgrade, where 2,000 sets of 80W LED Street Lights were specified with microwave motion sensing, light control and timer control, together with professional lighting design and project installation services.
Smart Roadway Lighting Solution Structure
A smart roadway lighting system needs to coordinate the luminaire, control method, electrical system, lighting layout and operating schedule.
LIKELITE's solution structure can include:
Microwave motion sensor
Light Control
Timer Control
Lighting and circuitry design
Onsite metering
DIALux Evo layout
LitePro DLX layout
AutoCAD layout
AGi32 layout
Project installation
Project documentation and compliance support
The objective is to create a controllable roadway lighting system that can respond to actual operating requirements.
Smart Lighting System Configuration
The smart roadway lighting solution can be configured around three primary control functions.
Microwave Motion Sensor
Motion sensing can detect changes in activity around the roadway and support automatic lighting control according to the configured operating strategy.
Light Control
Light-control functionality allows the lighting system to respond to ambient lighting conditions, supporting automatic operation between daytime and nighttime conditions.
Timer Control
Timer control allows lighting operation to follow predefined schedules. This can be coordinated with roadway operating hours, traffic patterns and project requirements.
The three functions can be combined according to the requirements of the project rather than using one fixed control configuration for every roadway.
LED Street Light Configuration
The representative Abu Dhabi solution uses 80W LED Street Lights with the following configuration:
Power: 80W
Input Voltage: AC 220V–240V
Frequency: 50Hz
Power Supply: AC
Luminous Efficiency: 150 lm/W
Light Source: Lumileds SMD2835 LED
CCT: 5000K ±300K
CRI: Ra 80
IP Rating: IP66
Surge Protection: 10KV
Voltage Resistance: 1.5KV
Housing: Aluminum Alloy
Lifespan: 30,000 hours
Working Temperature: -20°C to 55°C

This configuration provides a reference point for smart urban roadway lighting projects requiring high-efficiency LED equipment and integrated control.
Smart Control for Urban Roads
Urban roadway lighting does not operate under identical traffic conditions throughout the night.
Traffic levels, pedestrian activity, ambient light and operating schedules can vary significantly.
A smart lighting configuration allows the control strategy to be coordinated with these changing conditions.
A typical operating logic can include:
Daytime
Light-control functionality keeps roadway lighting switched off when sufficient ambient light is available.
Normal Night Operation
Street lights operate according to the configured schedule and roadway requirements.
Reduced-Activity Period
Timer control and motion detection can be coordinated to reduce unnecessary full-output operation when roadway activity decreases.
Motion Detection
When movement is detected, the control system can respond according to the programmed lighting strategy.
The exact dimming or switching logic should be determined during project design and commissioning.
Energy-Saving Strategy
Smart lighting is not simply the replacement of conventional lamps with LED lamps.
Energy performance can also be influenced by:
LED system efficiency
Lighting operating hours
Motion detection
Timer settings
Ambient-light control
Lighting levels
Existing fixture power
Roadway traffic conditions
Control strategy
Maintenance requirements
For the Abu Dhabi reference application, the project data indicates an energy-saving improvement of 27%.
This figure should be evaluated against the original roadway lighting system and actual operating conditions. It should not be treated as a universal guaranteed saving level for every smart lighting project.
Lighting and Circuitry Design
Smart lighting requires coordination between the luminaires and the electrical/control system.
LIKELITE provides lighting and circuitry design services to support:
Luminaire positioning
Circuit arrangement
Control-zone planning
Electrical requirements
Sensor positioning
Timer-control configuration
Project installation coordination
The final electrical configuration depends on the project drawings, roadway infrastructure and selected control architecture.
Onsite Metering
Onsite metering provides project-specific information before final lighting design.
The collected information may support evaluation of:
Existing illumination
Existing lighting equipment
Installation locations
Roadway geometry
Pole positions
Electrical conditions
Existing lighting operation
Areas requiring lighting improvement
This information can then be incorporated into the lighting design process.
Professional Lighting Simulation
LIKELITE supports multiple professional lighting design platforms for roadway projects.
DIALux Evo
Used for roadway lighting layouts, lighting calculations and design evaluation.
LitePro DLX
Used for lighting layout development and project-specific calculations.
AutoCAD
Used for engineering drawings, luminaire positioning and project coordination.
AGi32
Used for lighting calculations and technical design coordination where required.
The appropriate software depends on the project requirements and the engineering team's preferred workflow.
Roadway Lighting Design Process
A smart roadway lighting project can follow a structured engineering workflow.
