Energy saving and improve the life time of the sensor node is main focus in the recent years for the researchers hence one of the application domain (Street light monitoring and controlling) of sensor required attention towards this direction. For contributing in this domain we have proposed a scheme for Street light controlling using distributed topology control (TC). The optimize version of A3 protocol reduces the number of messages send/received by the sensors which ultimately leads to the reduction of energy requirement. Experiments are carried on street light scenario for different no. of nodes by maintaining communication using Zigbee protocol. The performance of our extension is evaluated using, no. of messages send/receive & energy consumed during topology building and our approach is having good results as compared to the approach used for this type of network.
