A constraint-based intelligent controller for lighting systems

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingsChapterpeer-review

Abstract

A major factor in energy wastage in retail and public-office buildings is the inefficient control of lighting systems. This paper presents a constraint based optimiser for lighting control which minimises energy usage while maintaining occupant satisfaction. This controller is coupled with a reactive controller which we simulate using a hybrid/multi-agent platform. We apply this control strategy to a simulated open office scenario, and outline the simulation results and potential energy savings of the proposed strategy.
