Definitions

the present invention relates to a control unit for a lighting system, a computer program product for generating control settings for a lighting system, a lighting system, and a method for operating a lighting system.
An LED luminary system for providing power to LED light sources to generate a desired light color comprises a power supply stage configured to provide a DC current signal.
a light mixing circuit is coupled to said power supply stage and includes a plurality of LED light sources with red, green and blue colors to produce various desired lights with desired color temperatures.
a controller system is coupled to the power supply stage and is configured to provide control signals to the power supply stage so as to maintain the DC current signal at a desired level for maintaining the desired light output.
the controller system is further configured to estimate lumen output fractions associated with the LED light sources based on junction temperature of the LED light sources and chromaticity coordinates of the desired light to be generated at the light mixing circuit.
the light mixing circuit further comprises a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature associated with the LED) light sources and a light detector for measuring lumen output level of light generated by the LED light sources. Based on the temperatures measured, the controller system determines the amount of output lumen that each of the LED light sources need to generate in order to achieve the desired mixed light output, and the light detector in conjunction with a feedback loop maintains the required lumen output for each of the LED light sources.”
the illumination device may include a phosphor converted LED, configured for emitting illumination for the illumination device, wherein a spectrum of the illumination emitted from the phosphor converted LED comprises a first portion having a first peak emission wavelength and a second portion having a second peak emission wavelength, which differs from the first peak emission wavelength.
methods are provided for calibrating and controlling each portion of the phosphor converted LED spectrum, as if the phosphor converted LED were two separate LEDs.
An illumination device is also provided herein comprising one or more emitter modules having improved thermal and electrical characteristics".
LEDs the color spectrum and the brightness (intensity) change.
LEDs are also affected by a dispersion of their technical properties with regard to brightness and color during manufacture. This can be compensated for by the manufacturer using so-called “binning,” in which semiconductor elements are sorted according to a predetermined dispersion.
a desired light color is generated from three LED light sources with red, green and blue color spectra.
CIE Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage [International Commission on Illumination]
the measured value vector is compared with an XYZ target value in a control unit which functions as a P controller and which, depending on the error, acts upon a drive unit such that the drive unit is made to supply electrical power to the light sources accordingly.
a disadvantage in this respect is that the sensor has to be adjusted to the frequency spectra of the LEDs for the control unit to function sufficiently. Furthermore, with this system, a lighting device with more than three light sources having different color spectra can no longer be controlled, because the result of an algorithm of said control unit is no longer unequivocal in view of the fact that several lumen settings of at least four light sources can generate the same color impression in the XYZ color space.
It is an objective of the present invention to provide a lighting system comprising a lighting unit, an optical part and a drive unit, and also a method for operating such a lighting system, the system and method being suitable to provide optimized control of light sources with different color spectra and to enable differentiation of temperature changes and non-temperature-dependent color changes in real time.
This also includes the desired user input.
a user will have full control over the lights with the advantage that the light and color will be accurate throughout the lifetime of the light source.
Yet another or alternative object is to create a platform that is capable to incorporate other domains to enhance the user experience of the computer program product.

a lighting system comprising:
LED light sources are based on mixing different channels (colors) by controlling their intensity.
Depreciation can be forecasted and taken into account so that the light output is compensated by adding more contribution on the depreciated channels.
Limited amount of data will be recorded and model predictions will have to apply generalizations for unseen data.
SPD prediction is done together with Yxy prediction to get a better representation of light, however their functions may be overlapping (for example, light control).
a reference light source which is statistically representative of a (local) light source in an embodiment is a light source of the same type as the (local) light source. Usually is has the same specified emission spectrum. Often, it is one selected from the same production batch. In case light sources are produced in a continuous production process, the statistically representative of the light source can be light sources that are produced at/in predetermined time ranges. These time ranges are selected such that the light sources that are selected are statistically representative. This requires insight in the production process and the variations over time. Usually, selection is such that a light source is selected as representative for at least 100 light sources. In particular, a light source is selected as representative for at least 1000 light sources.
a light source is selected that is representative for at least 10.000 light sources.
at least one light source is selected out of less than 100.000. For example, suppose that 1000 light sources are produced in an hour and the production process provides light sources that vary significantly over a time interval of 5 hours, then in an example three statistically representative light sources are selected in an interval of 5 hours. Thus, the three selected light sources statistically represent 5000 light sources and possibly even the variation in this time range of 5 hours. These three light sources are measures very accurately during operation time.
the number of selected light sources to statistically represent the local light sources also depends on the fluctuation in production, the required accuracy and requirement on the local light sources, and the measurement accuracy of local operating parameters, of reference operating parameters and of reference light output parameters. These statistical relations determine the ration and number of reference light sources to local light sources.
a dataset with various parameters against operating time can be measured, for instance selected from temperature, power supplied, voltage, current, flux, emission spectrum, luminescence, spectral irradiance, and a combination thereof.

a model can be initialized with weights and trained similar tasks to improve and speedup the training.
Optimizing the weights of a model in case of deep learning, can be done with the help of deep learning frameworks such as Tensorflow, Caffe, or MXNET.
