  • The article discussed two important problems, which have not been addressed previously:
    – The conceptual interpretation of lighting engineering, and the expansion of its definition beyond illumination, which has became widely accepted. An expanded concept of lighting engineering proposed by the authors includes all fields of application of optical radiation (light): illumination, irradiation, phototherapy (light therapy), light alarm systems, light location, light design, etc;
    – The problem of developing the theoretical foundation of Lighting Engineering. Differences between three existing light theories are summarised. The first one is quantum theory, explaining all known light phenomena. The second one is wave theory based on the provision that light spreads in waves. The third theory is beam and photometric based on the light field theory, which is the most widely applied and simple for practical calculations and simulation.

  • In a concise, but accessible for the first acquaintance form the procedure for the quantization of linear oscillator is set out. By analogy with this procedure the procedure of quantization (second quantization) of classical Maxwell’s electrodynamics is set up. The physical sense of the wave functions arguments of transverse electromagnetic field and its Fourier transformation is set up. One pay attention as for quantum coherent (almost a classic) states of the electromagnetic field and for photonics Fock states. Attention is drawn to the fact of absence the power of the universal content of such concepts as field amplitude, phase and number of particles (photons), which are used by experimenter’s to describe the states of a quantized field. The semi quantitative description the interaction processes of a quantum electromagnetic field with substance is set up. Specified situations are shown in which the discrepancy between the predictions of classical and quantum electrodynamics is not More

  • Using a statistical model of the threshold of colour vision, a new expression is obtained to calculate the detection probability of colour objects against colour backgrounds. The method shows that in the day sight area, this probability is completely determined by the individual criterion of decision making about an objectТs presence, by addition functions of the RGB colorimetric system, by radiance spectral concentrations of the object and background, and by the angular dimensions of the object.

Simulation of Reflected Solar Radiation for Atmosphere Gas Composition Evaluation for Optical Remote Sensing from Space
Andrei K. Lukyanov, Mikhail Yu. Katayev

Pages 14-21

Purchase PDF - $5.83
  • At present, in optical remote sensing of atmosphere from space, a new problem class appears: to determine little gas components (carbon dioxide, methane, etc.), which cause greenhouse effect. Concentration of these gases in atmosphere is less than one percent, which rigidly limits accuracy of satellite measurements and of simulating spatial concentration of the radiation (signal) flow reflected by Earth. In the article, a description of simulating signals received by satellite spectrometer in nearinfrared spectrum region is given. The signals are solar radiation passed through an atmosphere layer and reflected from Earth surface. It is calculated based on parametrical radiation atmosphere scattering and absorption model, which takes into consideration both multidimensional atmosphere parameter structure and Earth surface relief. Accounting such information allows you to go from measurement of spatial radiation flux to calculations of gas concentration for an arbitrary geographical Eart More

  • Main technological approaches to production of lightconducting systems with scattering microstructures are considered with a special attention to processing method of the optical material influence on geometrical parameters of the being formed microstructure. Relevance of it is caused by an insufficiency of studying influence of the microstructural scattering element configuration distortion on output luminance distribution of the lightconducting systems (because of the technological features of their production). As exemplified by a lightconducting system made by milling technology, a physically correct simulation of this system is carried out, and influence of the microstructure relief on output luminance distribution is shown. For the simulation, the Lumicept program system was used, which has provided physical correctness of the modelling results.

  • This paper considers the fundamental problem of artificial lighting in various types and scales of industrial facilities, focusing on exterior lighting design solutions. There is a lack of interest from investors, customers and society in high­quality lighting design for industrial facilities in Russia, which in many cities are very imaginative structures, practically unused in the evening. Architectural lighting of various types of installations is illustrated with photographs. The purpose of the article is to draw attention to the aesthetic value of industrial structures, provided not only by the architectural, but also by a welldesigned lighting solution.

  • The article considers the application of light-converting polymer films as cover materials for the cultivation of greenhouse crops in a covered soil. We analyse the impact of increasing the level of photosynthesis-active radiation (PAR) level in a greenhouse depending on the season, latitude, the angle of the sun, duration of daylight and on other parameters.

  • As the mainstream products of flat panel display, LED screen is becoming more and more popular, which has been widely used in the display system of large gymnasium. The detection of LED display system in large stadium is analyzed. Based on the large LED display in Jingzhou stadium, the qualification of LED display system after installation is tested. A scanning line seed filling algorithm is proposed and used to collect the gray value in the connected domain of the lamp and obtain the average gray value of the light point, so that the LED display system of the large gymnasium is detected. The experimental results show that a reasonable LED display and adjustment scheme can ensure the installation of LED display system in large gymnasium in line with the requirements of the national standard.

  • This paper presents the evaluation of usersХ experiences in three intelligent lighting pilots in Finland. Two of the case studies are related to the use of intelligent lighting in different kinds of traffic areas, having emphasis on aspects of visibility, traffic and movement safety, and sense of security. The last case study presents a more complex view to the experience of intelligent lighting in smart city contexts. The evaluation methods, tailored to each pilot context, include questionnaires, an urban dashboard, in-situ interviews and observations, evaluation probes, and system data analyses. The applicability of the selected and tested methods is discussed reflecting the process and achieved results.

  • Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) are fast replacing incandescent lamps and CFLs in most of the developing nations. The reason can be attributed mainly to the enhanced lifetime and less energy consumption as compared to the other mentioned types. However one important aspect needs attention, the impact of driver on LEDs. LEDs are current controlled devices and hence emit maximum light with increase in current input to the device. This feature, boost up the light output but it increases the junction temperature of the device. Hence additional heat sinks are required to vent out the excessive heat generated due to increase current input to the LEDs. Those additional heat sinks are at times difficult to accommodate. So, designers have made arrangements to vent out the heat from the device. This is achieved by designing fins. However this arrangement is not suitable in places where the ambient temperature is more than normal. Thus, design of LED driver with controlled current input is essential More
