| Abstract |
Studies for the reduction of lighting energy have been done using technologies such as user and location awareness. However, the focus of current research on location-based lighting control has been on energy reduction, which can lead to other issues including an imbalance in indoor illumination. This study proposes a lighting control system applying general illumination and technology for user and location awareness. The proposed lighting control system reduced lighting energy by 72.1%, 66.5% and 62.3% for 1, 2 and 3 users, respectively, compared to the On/Off lighting control system. This lighting control system causes an increase in lighting energy of 35.8% and 10.9% for 1 and 2 users compared to the lighting control system with user and location awareness, while a reduction of 9.4% was seen for 3 users. This means that the proposed system provides more effective energy reduction for a room with multiple occupants as it is based on the general lighting control scheme. The lighting control system applying general illumination and technology of user and location awareness improved the uniformity factor by 32.0%, 39.4% and 33.4% for 1, 2 and 3 users, respectively. |
