Abstract: An outdoor lighting system comprises an outdoor light source, a luminance control device, a detection apparatus, a communication network and a main controlling system. The detection apparatus is configured for detecting a luminance of the light source and generating a corresponding detecting signal associated with the luminance of the light source. The main controlling system receives the detecting signal from the detection apparatus via the communication network, and generates a luminance control signal in responsive to the detecting signal; the luminance control device is configured for receiving the luminance control signal via the communication network and regulating the luminance of the light source according to the luminance control signal.

Abstract: An exemplary light emitting diode driving system includes a protective circuit, a rectifying circuit, a driving circuit, a light emitting diode module and a detecting circuit. The protective circuit, the rectifying circuit, the driving circuit and the light emitting diode module are connected in series. The driving circuit is configured for driving the light emitting diode to emit light. The detecting circuit has predetermined voltages or current values stored therein. The detecting circuit detects the respective voltage or current of the protective circuit, the rectifying circuit and the driving circuit, and compares the respective voltage or current with the predetermined voltages or currents.
