Precise optical modeling for LED lighting verified by cross correlation in the midfield region

Abstract: A novel LED modeling algorithm for precise three-dimensional light pattern simulation is proposed and demonstrated. We propose to use normalized cross correlation to verify the validity of the simulation in one-dimensional intensity patterns as well as two-dimensional irradiance patterns in various midfield distances and to provide feedback to achieve a successful model. The model is demonstrated to obtain an average of 99% in normalized cross correlation between the simulation light pattern and experimental m… Show more

“…The illuminator in the RICE is a Nichia LED, with part number NESWC04T as described in Ref. 10. The number of rays that are emitted from each LED is set to 1,000,000, and the total flux is 100 mW.…”

“…In recent years, C. C. Sun considered the importance of the midfield region, which is between the near-field and far-field regions; in this region, the propagation of light varies with distance, normally within 1 cm to 1 m. 11,12 This case applies in RICE because the distance from the LED to the image plane is only a few centimeters. Experiments were carried out to verify the accuracy of the simulation.…”

“…Our phosphor particle model was designed to simulate the scattering and absorbing process of light inside the phosphors. This model was based on the Mie theory, the ray tracing method, and Monte-Carlo algorithms [8][9][10][11]. A blue light LED was used to excite the phosphors, with the samples numbered R-645 and R-626 indicating red lights, G-531 and G-529 indicating green lights, and Y-561 yellow light.…”

“…Currently, the optical design of LEDs is carried out by means of Monte Carlo ray tracing methods. [1][2][3][4][5] These techniques randomly simulate from 1 to 10 million light rays and the output ray-density distribution serves as an indirect value for the radiated pattern. In addition to the time consumed by these techniques, the lack of an analytic expression for the output intensity and irradiance reduces the optimization process to a trial and error procedure.…”
