This paper proposes a low-beam system for an LED-based headlamp architecture, which is composed of an elliptical reflector, a baffle, and a faceted reflector. Using a single device with high brightness LED of merely 6.00 W, two devices total 12.00 W. With a low beam 55 W traditional halogen light source compared to 78.18% energy savings, the specified illumination requirements for the headlamp low beam can be achieved, according to the ECE regulation "Addendum 111: Regulation No. 112 Revision 2." As we have expected, on the test screen at a distance of 25 m, the simulation results as well as the testing results for the prototype can reach the illuminance distribution requirements, including all specified regions and key points. Moreover, this faceted low beam system enjoys the features of high compactness, high energy efficiency, and feasibility of manufacturing.
An effective high-efficiency LED headlamp system for automotive low-beam lighting which consists of parabolic reflector, compound lenses and combined prisms, is introduced in this paper. Using a single, high-brightness LED, the illumination requirements for a headlamp low beam specified by UNECE regulation 'Addendum 111: Regulation No. 112 Revision 2' can be achieved. On the test screen at a distance of 25 m, simulation results as well as testing results for the prototype meet the requirements of the UNECE regulation for all specified regions and key points.
Compared to traditional street lighting technologies, light emitting diode (LED) luminaires have the potential advantages of increased energy efficiency, longer operating life and better light distribution. In this paper, we present a new highquality LED road lighting luminaire. The luminaire shows high optical efficiency, high optical utilization factor and low glare, and illuminates the street with high uniformity. We verify its feasibility by Monte Carlo ray-tracing and test its real performance through a prototype model of the luminaire. The results show that it can achieve the expected performance.
In this paper, we propose a composite optical system for automotive headlamps. The system is composed of a paraboloid collimating reflector, an off-axis paraboloid reflector, a baffle and an imaging len. By using a LED as the light source, precise light distribution can be achieved. When making ray-tracing simulation for the composite optical system in TracePro, a clear cut-off line can be seen on the measuring screen, as well as a hotspot at the centre. The power consumption for the LED light sources in this system is less than 10 W, resulting in an energy efficiency of more than 58% and a maximum illumination of 26.76 lux at the centre hotspot.
This paper proposes an LED-based compound optical system, which can be involved in the design of the driving beam system in automotive headlamps with high system efficiency and low power consumption. The compound system can meet the requirements announced in the UNECE regulation "Addendum 111: Regulation No. 112 Revision 2." Also, it is composed of a nonspherical reflector, a compound lens, and a two-dimensional diverging lens. Using a single device of high-brightness LED of merely 7.6 W, the specified illumination requirements for the driving beam can be achieved. As we have expected, on the test screen at a distance of 25 m, the simulation results, as well as the testing results for the prototype, can reach the illuminance distribution requirements, including all specified regions and key points. Moreover, this compound system enjoys the features of high compactness, high energy efficiency, and feasibility of manufacturing.
