Wireless decentralized traffic light controller controlled by satellite atomic clocks via GPS.

摘要

Wireless decentralized traffic light controller controlled by satellite atomic clocks via GPS. The aforementioned invention aims at a decentralized regulator for the traffic light installation of pedestrian crossings, traffic lights and even regulated intersections, where an installation without civil works and electrical wiring between the different traffic light elements of an intersection or crossing is required. Each controller has a GPS receiver (4), to receive the time base of the atomic clocks of the satellites, which by means of a suitable software resident in the microcontroller (3) will turn on the lights of the traffic lights (10). All GPS have the same time base (thanks to the atomic clocks of the satellites), in this way they will coordinate and synchronize perfectly between different regulators or do it at the same time between them without physical communication. Each regulator must be powered by batteries, solar panels or any type of alternative energy.
