Abstract: 
Public lighting is all the means used to illuminate public spaces, roads and residential areas. It contributes to user safety and accounts for nearly a third of electricity consumption worldwide. The lamp lighting system was on/off. That is to say, either the street lamps are 100% on without taking into account the observed traffic density (much, little or no traffic), or they are all off. Faced with budget restrictions and rising energy costs, more and more local authorities are looking for a solution to reduce their electricity consumption related to street lighting.
We collected data in an RPL network of 10 nodes in random representation. A 6LoWPAN network of 30 nodes plus an additional node, representing the edge router is realized and simulated. The results obtained were presented, analysed and interpreted.
