Abstract

A lamp control system includes at least one first lamp network, at least one second lamp network and a lamp control gateway. The first lamp network is configured to emit light and to transmit a first message, and includes a first physical layer. The second lamp network is configured to emit light and to transmit a first message, and includes a second physical layer different from the first physical layer. The lamp control gateway includes a processing module that is configured to receive the first message and the second message and to convert the first message and the second message in such a way that a first converted message and a second converted message comply with a predefined protocol.

Dependent claims

A lamp control system comprising:

at least one first lamp network configured to emit light, including a first physical layer, and configured to transmit a first message;
at least one second lamp network configured to emit light, including a second physical layer different from said first physical layer, and configured to transmit a second message;
and
a lamp control gateway including a processing module configured to receive the first message and the second message and to convert the first message and the second message in such a way that a first converted message and a second converted message comply with a predefined protocol;
wherein said processing module includes a protocol unit including a media access control (MAC) layer that complies with the predefined protocol;
wherein said first lamp network complies with a first protocol, said second lamp network complies with a second protocol, and the predefined protocol is different from the first and second protocols.
