Optimization of a spectrally tunable LED daylight simulator

Optimization of a spectrally tunable LED daylight simulator Daylight simulators (i.e., D50, D55, D65, and D75 simulators) play an important role for industrial applications, such as surface color industry, recipe formulation, and graphic arts industry.

Abstract

Daylight simulators (i.e., D50, D55, D65, and D75 simulators) play an important role for industrial applications, such as surface color industry, recipe formulation, and graphic arts industry. Conventional light sources, including xenon lamps, tungsten‐halogen lamps, and fluorescent lamps, have been used as daylight simulators. In this article, a genetic algorithm is employed to investigate optimized channels for each daylight simulator. It is found that at least six LED channels are required to produce high quality daylight simulators in terms of the CIE Metamerism Indices. Furthermore, it is possible to create a spectrally tunable daylight simulator using six LED channels with wavelengths of 357, 420, 474, 533, 595, and 660 nm. This wavelength combination with appropriate intensity combinations can produce D50, D55, D65, and D75 simulators with good performance, in terms of the CIE Metamerism Indices. The color appearance of various color samples or objects under such a daylight simulator is found to be very similar to those under a corresponding daylight illuminant. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
