Our Mission Statement

To provide the most energy efficient and maintenance-free outdoor LED lighting solutions; helping our customers save money and improve their lighting with a positive impact on the environment.

Leadership

LRLs founder and CEO Chuck Cartmill has a strong track record in the creation, management, and operation of diverse businesses. His first venture, a manufacturers representative firm focused on lighting products, was founded in 1974 and is still in operation today, as are his numerous other business ventures focused in the electrical and electronics industries. Mr. Cartmills leadership and entrepreneurial spirit has been recognized by numerous organizations including Ernst & Youngs Entrepreneur of the Year Award (2006 Atlantic Region), and he has been frequently named as one of Atlantic Canadas Top 50 CEOs by Atlantic Business Magazine. Mr. Cartmills business approach, which includes being debt-averse, empowering employees, encouraging innovation, and most importantly, building strong and lasting customer relationships has been the cornerstone to his success, and the success of LRL. Mr. Cartmill is guided by a management team with a wealth of experience in diverse industries and by members of a board of directors that are highly respected in their fields.

Innovation in Design

LRLs Satellite series fixtures have been designed for maximum efficiency, performance, and reliability. Under the direction of CTO Dr. Jack Josefowicz, LRLs design team has created an LED fixture with a true 20 year design life. Drawing on his extensive experience in the aerospace field, Dr. Josefowicz determined that commercial-grade, off-the-shelf components cannot provide the life expectancy demanded by municipal and other users. LRL also recognized that the most common failure point in an LED fixture is not the LEDs, but rather the power supply (driver). High failure rate components were eliminated from the fixture design (optocouplers, commercial-grade capacitors, potting, etc.) and instead, aerospace and automotivegrade components were employed. Our approach is based on the concept of reliability, rather than replaceability. The end result is that the life of the power electronics is consistent with the expected 20 year life of the LEDs. LRLs in-house design team has developed no less than 12 articles of intellectual property related to the Satellite series fixtures. These innovations include our unique optics system, which delivers maximum target lumens to the roadway surface; our high-reliability power supply, and our thermal management system.

Leading the LED technology wave


All elements of LRLs fixture are designed to be replaceable, upgradeable and recyclable (e.g.. power supply, light engine, etc.).

Reliability

All power supplies and light engines used in Satellite series fixtures are designed andmanufactured by LED Roadway Lighting Ltd. to ensure reliability and total process control. LRL is the only manufacturer providing LED power supplies that are independently evaluated according to Telcordia SR-332, the globally dominant standard for assessing reliability of electronics assemblies. With MTBF values of up to 3.302 million hours, LRL power supplies are the most reliable in the industry, and this is supported with independent test data.

LRLs SAT-S luminaire for street and area lighting applications.

Single Source Responsibility

LRLs level of vertical integration is another reason to select Satellite series fixtures. All power supplies, light engines, and electronics are designed, manufactured and tested in-house. When selecting LRL for your project, you are dealing with the manufacturer, not an integrator of third-party components. We offer true single source responsibility.

Performance

All performance data provided by LRL is supported by independent test reports, including LM-79 and LM-80 data. We also provide our customers with a layout service, which includes detailed layout creation, as well as customer-specific requirements such as side-by-side comparisons, ROI calculations, and environmental impact reports.

Controls and Monitoring (Streetlight Intelligence)

Our Streetlight Intelligence adaptive lighting controls are compatible with LED, High Pressure Sodium, Metal Halide and Mercury Vapor lighting systems. The Streetlight Intelligence system includes dimming capability, fixture outage reporting, energy consumption measurement (to within 1% accuracy), and Central Asset Management software. Dimming schedules can be user-defined, and programmed using a handheld device, supplied by LRL.

Responsiveness

LED Roadway Lighting Limited is small enough to be flexible and responsive to individual customer requirements, yet large enough to support your projects now and in the future. Our in-house design and manufacturing, combined with an empowering management, supports innovation and reduced time to market. Our CEO is active in the day to day operation of the business and highly responsive to customer demands.

Light Loss Factor Information

Leading the LED technology wave

LRL SatelliteTM Series Light Loss Factor Determination


LLD = 0.89 Lamp Lumen Depreciation (LLD). The lumen depreciation (LLD) for the LED is determined from LM-80 [1] reported data provided by the LED manufacturer. The LM-80 report gives lumen depreciation data for LEDs operating at solder pad temperatures (Ts) of 55C, 85C, and 105C. In the Satellite Series fixtures the LEDs are operated well under the maximum drive current, as low as 280mA. In-situ temperature measurement tests (ISTMTs), performed as per UL 1598 [2] and Energy Star [3], confirm that the difference between ambient (Tamb) and solder pad temperature (Ts) is 17.9C at 280mA. For an ambient temperature of 20C and an operating current of 280mA Ts will be 37.9C The low Ts is achieved through our unique thermal management system with cooling fins integrated into the fixture housing. The fixtures curved design is self-cleaning, preventing the buildup of dirt and debris which could adversely affect heat dissipation. Using the methodology of TM-21 [4], an exponential curve fit to the LM-80 depreciation data and the Arrhenius Equation are used to interpolate lumen maintenance at the operating temperatures seen in the Satellite Series. This yields the lumen depreciation factors for the LEDs . For an average ambient of 20C and an operating current of 280mA, LLD = 0.89 over 20 years (12 operating hours per day). LOD = 0.94 Luminaire Optical Depreciation (LOD). Satellite Series luminaires are IP-66 rated. This means they are impervious to dust and powerful water spray. The optical lenses are mounted at 30 angles on the underside of the fixture meaning they are protected from the elements. In extreme conditions, winds may deposit some slight dust onto the fixtures lenses, but the mounting angles make these lenses self-cleaning. The lenses are made of UV resistant acrylic which does not discolor. Under the most extreme laboratory testing conditions, this material will optically depreciate by no more than 6% over 20 years based on manufacturer information.

The power supply has been designed to provide constant current to the LEDs over the 20 year life under normal conditions. LLF = 0.89 x 0.94 x 1.00 = 0.83 Using this methodology total fixture Light Loss Factor (LLF) can be calculated for all Satellite Series LED Drive Currents as shown in the graph below.

In addition to the maintenance savings, our SatelliteTM Series fixtures provide up to 80% energy savings versus traditional High Pressure Sodium and Metal Halide fixtures. LRL has provided fixtures to a number of bridge projects, including Confederation Bridge (Prince Edward Island, Canada); Briton Bridge (United Kingdom); Hill Avenue Bridge (Tennessee, USA); Centennial Bridge (Miramichi, New Brunswick, Canada) and Harbour Bridge (Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada). LRLs testing program includes the following tests, which are particularly relevant for bridge applications: ANSI C136.31 Roadway Luminaire Vibration (100,000 cycles at bridge or overpass frequency (5Hz-30Hz); 3G rating), ASTM B117 Salt Spray Test, MIL-STD-810F Rain/Ice Test.

Confederation Bridge (Borden, Prince Edward Island/Cape Jourimain, New Brunswick, Canada) The Confederation Bridge joining Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick is perhaps the most extreme environment on earth. The bridge environment includes a marine (salt) environment, salt spray, ice, snow, wind and extreme vibration. After an extensive series of trials, 315 LED Roadway Lighting Ltd. fixtures were selected for the installation.

Centennial Bridge (Miramichi, New Brunswick, Canada) Miramichis arch truss Centennial Bridge was opened in 1967, to commemorate Canadas centennial year. We installed 22 LED Roadway Satellite fixtures for an energy savings of 56%.

Briton Ferry Bridge (United Kingdom) The South Wales Trunk Road Agency (SWTRA), on behalf of the Welsh Assembly Government, have installed 62 LED Roadway Satellite fixtures on the A48 (Trunk Road) Briton Ferry Bridge.

CONVERSION CASE STUDY: City Mazda Dealership


Before: 10 x 1000W Metal Halide Fixtures (1080 plug watt) After: 10 x 201W SatelliteTM Series Fixtures (201 plug watt)

81% Energy Savings


Project Description
The City Mazda dealership in Halifax, Canada recently converted their exterior showcase lighting from 1000 Watt metal halide shoebox fixtures to 201 Watt LED Satellite Series fixtures. This retrofit resulted in a reduction of energy consumption by 81%. Also, by installing the Satellite Series fixtures, City Mazda will reduce their maintenance costs almost entirely. With the previous 1000 Watt metal halide fixtures, maintenance events (re-lamping and ballast replacement) occurred three times annually. The energy savings, which is more important than ever due to the increasing cost of electricity, combined with the reduction in maintenance costs, results in a total Return on Investment of 2.8 years. Over the 20 year life of the Satellite Series, the total savings are expected to be approximately $140,000. The dealership is very pleased with the lighting performance especially the increased uniformity on the ground, less light pollution on the neighbouring properties and into the sky. Also, there is an enhanced level of lighting on the main City Mazda dealership sign. We are very happy with the light levels produced by the LED lighting. With a return on investment of less than 2.8 years, I highly recommend LED Roadway Lighting Ltd. and the Satellite Series fixture for commercial applications. ~Stephen Scarff, Owner, City Mazda Halifax, N.S., Canada

Financing Program

Municipalities face increasing challenges in the current economic climate. Balancing a relatively finite revenue stream against increasing wave cost of services that are Leading the LEDthe technology demanded by constituents is a complex task. Municipalities are concerned about the state of public infrastructure, but are left with few feasible alternatives to deliver the services required at a manageable cost. In many cases, this also means that installation of energy saving equipment that will pay significant dividends in the future is postponed, thereby losing the potential savings over the long term because of current economic constraints. In the case of public lighting systems, many municipalities have considered removing or disabling street lighting assets, which raises concerns about public safety. There has to be another way.

The Challenge

Capital Lease Solutions

A Capital Lease is usually structured with a required nominal end of lease payment. At the end of the term of the lease, the title to the equipment is transferred to the lessee upon completion of the lease obligations. Such a lease must be shown as an asset on the balance sheet of the lessee and be depreciated or capitalized over the term of the lease. A major benefit of a Capital Lease is the lease provides additional financing options to the lessee. Unlike a traditional equipment finance loan, in many cases a Capital Lease can provide for 100% equipment financing.

Operating Lease Solutions

The Opportunity

The cost of a street lighting system is a significant portion of municipal energy budgets, in some cases, in excess of 50%. The cost of electricity is not the only factor. Maintenance costs also represent a sizable portion of the cost of managing a street lighting system. LED-based street lighting is a proven technology, with demonstrated energy savings and a life expectancy of four to five times that of conventional technologies such as high-pressure sodium. LED Roadway Lighting Ltd.s (LRL) Satellite Series fixtures deliver up to 80% energy savings and offer a 20 year design life. Our purpose-built power supply is designed for reliability, using aerospace and automotive components, as opposed to off-the-shelf, commercial grade components used in competing brands. The combination of a robust design, a proprietary optics system that delivers maximum illumination to the road surface, and unparalleled thermal management, make the Satellite Series the ideal choice for municipalities seeking reliability, longevity and maximum savings in energy and maintenance.

In a traditional operating lease the lessor makes a significant investment in the equipment, thereby assuming the risk of obsolescence, which reduces the lease payments that the lessee is required to make. Equipment under an operating lease need not be shown on the balance sheet of the lessee. In addition to the offbalance sheet benefits to the lessee, an operating lease provides flexibility through the many options available to the lessee at the middle and end of the lease.

Streetlight IntelligenceTM: Street & Area Lighting Control and Monitoring


Q1. How much can a luminaire be dimmed (%)? A1. LED fixtures can be dimmed from 100% to 15%, as well as OFF. HPS/MH fixtures can be dimmed from 100% to 50%, as well as OFF. Q2. How long does dimming take? A2. Dimming is done in 1% increments, with an average time of 1.5 seconds per increment, ie. it would take 38 seconds to dim from 100% to 75%. Q3. A3. Is the dimming schedule set to weekly, monthly, etc and can we plan special days in advance (e.g. for a special event/holiday celebration, can we plan for that a few months using a special dimming schedule? Schedules are weekly, repeating 52 times per year. In order to plan for a special day/event, you would need to change the scheduling 2-3 days in advance of the special event to ensure all the fixtures were re-programmed. After the special day/event, you would then need to change the schedule back to the original schedule.

Q4. What are the smallest increments of dimming and time that we can scheduled? A4. The Streetlight Intelligence (SLI) system can dim in increments of 1% with 15 minute resolution in time. Q5. What is the accuracy and resolution of the power monitoring? A5. Better than 1% non-revenue-grade reporting, with a resolution of watt-seconds (Ws). Q6. Does dimming have any impact on the power factor or harmonic distortion? A6. In HPS systems, there is a slightly leading affect on the power factor (usually beneficial). In LED systems, it depends on the behaviour of the driver. Q7. Does dimming have any impact on the color of the light output? A7. With LED systems, it depends on the behavior of the driver. For HPS, there is a small shift. Q8. What are the electrical specifications? A8. HPS/MH 110-480VAC, 60Hz 0-400W, CWA/CWI Ballast only, LED systems: 110-277VAC, 50/60Hz up to 4.5A switched. Provides 0-10VDC output. Q9. What radio frequency is used and what is its range? A9. SLI uses a proprietary 900MHz Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) radio with a self-healing mesh network. Conservatively we recommend a maximum of 300 meters (984 feet) between any two Nodes/Gateway. Q10. How much data is typically sent/received by each Node? A10. The amount of data sent/received is very small, typically only a few hundred bytes during each 24 hour period. Typically, this is only done once per night to ensure all the Nodes are powered. The frequency of collection can be user-adjusted. Q11. Can the RF Mesh Network be shared with other devices? (e.g. traffic signals, video camera, pumps etc. A11. No, the RF Mesh Network uses a low bandwidth, proprietary protocol.

55

Leading the LED technology wave


Q12. Is the data between nodes, and between nodes, and Gateway, secure? A12. The data uses a proprietary protocol and is encrypted with a 56 bit DES software encryption key. The transmitter and receiver must have the same key in order to decrypt the message packet. Q13. What is Gateway/Station? A13. Gateway/Station provides a 2-way gateway between our proprietary 900MHz network, and the Central Asset Management Database. Each gateway contains a single board computer, proprietary 900MHz transceiver and an Ethernet port to connect a cellular data modem, or an existing LAN. Q14. How is data back hauled from Gateway/Station? A14. Data is backhauled through the internet via either a cellular data modem or an existing LAN network via a standard RJ45 Ethernet connection. Q15. Is the data between Gateway and the Central Asset Management database secured? A15. The data is sent via a SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) connection between Gateway/Station and the Central Asset Management Database using TCP/IP sockets with 256-bit AES encryption. The transmitter and receiver must have the same private keys in order to secure a connection and transmit the compressed data. Q16. How many Nodes can be assigned to a Gateway/Station? A16. Conservatively, up to 500. The terrain and lighting layout can impact this number. Q17. What is the Central Asset Management software? A17. Central Asset Management software is hosted at LRL (LED Roadway Lighting Ltd.) in Canada. Users access the database through a web-based interface that allows users to set lighting parameters, set dimming schedules, generate reports and monitor asset (fixture) maintenance. Different users can be assigned rights which limit view/editing of the data. Q18. Is the interface between the Central Asset Management software and local computer secure? A18. The data is sent over a secure HTTPS connection between Central database and the local computer. Q19. What web browsers are supported? A19. Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 running Silverlight on Windows 7 and Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 on Windows XP. Other browsers are not supported but should work. Q20. What mapping source is used? A20. We use the latest version of Microsoft Bing Maps. Q21. Will client hosting be available? A21. Yes, a client-hosted option is planned for a future release. Q22. Is energy reporting in real time? A22. Data is typically collected once per night when it is guaranteed that all the nodes are operating. Depending on the reporting method (noon to noon or midnight to midnight), there can be a 24 hour delay in the energy measurement.

Q23. What reporting is available? A23. Currently, Energy and Maintenance reports are available. LRL would entertain working with a client to design custom reports for a fee. Q24. How do I know that a fixture is out? A24. Data is typically collected once per night when it is guaranteed that all the nodes are operating. Users would receive an email indicating that an error was detected during the previous 24 hour period. Using the Central Asset Management, you would view the errors in the Maintenance window. Q25. What is Commander? A25. Commander is a field ruggedized computer running Windows Mobile. Commander has both a built in GPS receiver and barcode scanner. Commander synchronizes with the Central Asset Management database providing installation and maintenance directions to field personnel. Using the GPS location and the barcode scanner, Commander records a Node barcode to a specific GPS location and uploads this information to the Central database. All maintenance is done using Commander to ensure the integrity of the data in the database. Q26. Can a Node be added to luminaire at factory? A26. Yes Q27. Can I order an LED fixture that is control-enabled from the factory and install controls at a later date? A27. Yes Q28. Can SLI technology be used with non-LRL fixtures? A28. Yes Q29. Can the SLI software manage (dimming, reporting) fixtures that are controlled using another manufacturers control hardware? A29. No, while the SLI system can be installed on other fixture brands (and therefore controlled/monitored), the SLI software cannot be used to control fixtures that are enabled with another brand of control hardware.

Summary

The human eye contains 2 major light sensitive photo receptors, namely cones and rods each with its own spectral sensitivity, photopic sensitivity for cones and scotopic sensitivity for rods. At light levels typical of night time roadway lighting, both cones and rods can be active and both spectral sensitivities could apply. However for straight ahead viewing where the line of sight is directed to distant object detection and recognition, such as a pedestrian on a roadway, only cones are relevant. In that case, the photopic function is the operating sensitivity. The rod response, along with scotopic sensitivity, does not contribute to the important visual task of direct object recognition. Other visual tasks such as large area brightness perception, peripheral guidance and detection of objects not in the line of sight are affected by rod response and in that case both photopic and scotopic sensitivity functions need to be included to correctly characterize how light affects vision.

Overview

Objects are best seen and discerned in central vision i.e. when we directly view them straight ahead. In night time conditions, this primary visual task will generally benefit from the presence of an exterior lighting system. However, when we look straight ahead, the most important light coming from the viewed object activates the very center of the retina known as the fovea. The fovea is populated exclusively by cone photo receptors and as a consequence of this anatomical condition (all cone and no rod receptors), the applicable spectral sensitivity for direct object recognition is always the photopic spectral function. This remains true even for the night time light levels typical of roadways. Thus, to assure that a lighting system meets both IESNA and CIE recommendations for the vision functions of object detection and recognition, such as a pedestrian in a roadway, the recommended light levels should be specified in standard photopic photometric quantities. In contrast to central viewing, the perception of spatial brightness involves light that stimulates all parts of the retina including both central and non-central regions. This applies to interior as well as the lit environments typical of night time roadway conditions. In night time conditions, rod and cone receptors will be active in the retina. As a result, both scotopic and photopic spectral sensitivities need to be considered together to adequately describe how light affects spatial brightness perception.

Background

Photoreceptors (i.e. human light sensors) are located at the back surface of the eye [1]. This light sensitive structure is called the retina. The surface of the retina is composed of both rods (~120 million) and cones (~7 million) [2]. Rods and cones are the primary means through which the eye receives optical signals that are subsequently transferred to the brain [2]. There, the signals are converted to visual images that are perceived. The perception of color is accomplished via the cones that are tuned to respond to light in a wavelength range of between blue light (450nm) and red (675nm) light [3] combining to provide a peak for achromatic spectral sensitivity at 555nm. During daytime conditions and high lighting levels, only cones are activated giving the human eye Photopic vision [1][2]. In pitch-black night time and very low lighting levels such as starlight, only rods are activated. Rod receptors are sensitive to wavelengths from violet light (400 nm) to orange light (610 nm)giving the

62

human eye Scotopic vision [1][2]. There is an intermediate luminance level (3 candelas/m2 to 0.01 candelas/m2) referred to as Mesopic vision, where both rods and cones contribute to vision by varying degrees [1][2]. Much of the lighting for roadways, parking lots, and other exterior locations fall within the Mesopic range. In fact, the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA) recommends a photopic luminance of between 0.3 and 1.2 candelas/m2 for roadway lighting [4]. In Figure 2, the graph shows the eyes two luminous efficiency functions at various wavelengths (colours) of light normalized by the international definition of the lumen, i.e., 683 lumens at 555nm. The cone achromatic channel for photopic vision, called the photopic spectral sensitivity function (the calibrating function applied to calibrate all light meters) has a maximum sensitivity at the green colour of 555nm. Rods, for scotopic vision, have their maximum spectral sensitivity as shown by the peak of the Scotopic sensitivity function at the bluegreen colour of 507nm. The different peak heights of the two sensitivity functions shown in Figure 2 are a consequence of the fixed and internationally accepted normalization of 683 lumens at 555nm and are not related to innate differences in rod or cone light sensitivity.

Vision Tasks on a Roadway at Night

While commuting on a roadway, visual function can be separated into at least four distinct tasks Direct (Line of Sight) Viewing along with Object Detection and Recognition, Spatial Brightness Perception, Guidance along with Off-Axis Object Detection and Movement Detection.

63

Leading the LED technology wave


(a) Line of Sight Viewing with Object Detection (Central Vision is Predominate): At mesopic light levels, this task is essentially independent of brightness of the surrounding environment and focuses only on the identification of objects viewed straight ahead. In the human eye, this task is attended by the fovea, located in the central part of the retina [Figure 3] where vision is the most precise [1]. Only cones are present in the fovea [Figure 4] making the Photopic Sensitivity Function the sole spectral contributor for Line of Sight Viewing and direct Object Detection tasks. This presumption based on the anatomy of the retina has been confirmed for roadway light levels by the studies of He et.al [5]. In that study, a spot of light was flashed in the visual field of several subjects and their reaction response times were measured. This response was studied for light level adaptation conditions typical of night time lit environments. When the spot was presented foveally at these mesopic light levels, photopic luminance alone predicted the measured behaviour. However, when the spot was presented away from the line of sight or visual axis at mesopic light levels, both scotopic and photopic quantities were required to properly correlate the reaction time data.

Figure 4: Rod and Cone Density on the Retina [2]

(b) Spatial Brightness Perception (Full Field Vision): This percept relates to how light is perceived in a broadly lit spatial area. At night, this can relate to how secure we feel in it. Spatial Brightness Perception is initiated by both rod and cone photo receptors throughout the entire retina, and thus will require both scotopic and photopic photometric quantities to accurately describe the perceptions [6][7]. (c) Non Central Vision for Guidance and Detection of Targets Located Off the Visual Axis: This task refers to the acquisition of visual information not in the line of sight along with the detection of objects that are not located in the direct central field of view (line of sight) but are off to the sides. In Mesopic conditions, both rods and cones will contribute to both guidance and off-axis target detection [3].

Leading the LED technology wave


(d) Movement Detection: The ability to detect movement both centrally and peripherally is an important visual task that is especially useful for night time driving and security observations [8]. Although central movement detection is known to be primarily governed by photopic spectrum [9], little is known quantitatively about the spectral component of non-central movement detection especially in mesopic conditions. However it has been determined [10] that at mesopic light levels, non-central movement detection is better with more bluish light as compared to more reddish light both set at the same photopic level. This result indicates that rod response is also involved in non-central movement detection.

A Concern for Lighting Practice

For street and roadway lighting applications where mesopic vision may apply [3], it is incorrect to obtain the net response of the eye to brightness or any other vision experience by summing the photopic and scotopic light associated with a light source. The light initiated signals from the rods and cones are combined in the visual cortex of the brain to produce perception. The manner by which they are combined depends on the specifics of the task as well as the light level. For example, at light levels at the upper end of the Mesopic range, rod contributions to brightness perception will be negligible compared to cone signals; whereas at the low end of the Mesopic range, the situation would be reversed. A reduction in photopic light levels below standard lighting specifications, on the basis that scotopic lumens can be added to photopic lumens, ignores the fact that only photopic lumens are involved with direct line of sight object recognition, where primarily cone receptors in the fovea are activated. For good lighting practice applied to street, roadway, and highway lighting applications, it is essential not to deviate from the IES (Illuminating Engineering Society) RP-8-00 specifications [11] or CIE (International Commission on Illumination) 1152005 specifications [4] that define photopic light levels. These specifications are based on the determination of the minimum amount of photopic lumens required for safety and security in Direct Object Recognition applications, such as a pedestrian crossing a roadway.

Comparing LED and HPS Spectral Power Densities and Lumen Outputs

The scotopic and photopic lumens incorporated by the human eye associated with a luminaire with a given spectral power density is determined by weighting that spectral power density with the photopic or scotopic spectral sensitivity. The integrated result over the range of visible wavelengths of the weighted spectral power density curve yields the photopic and scotopic lumens respectively [1][2]. Furthermore, the ratio of scotopic to photopic light for a particular light source (S/P value) is independent of absolute light level to the extent that the spectral power density remains constant [6]. When such a calculation is carried out for the comparison of a typical HPS lamp with the whiter light LED source, the result obtained shows that these LEDs [Figure 7] can have significantly higher S/P values as compared with the typical HPS [Figure 6]. The examples of Figure 6 and Figure 7 show that the S/P value for the LED source is about a factor 2.65 greater than the HPS source. This characteristic may be used to an efficacy advantage in situations where there is a benefit for lighting with relatively more scotopic content such as for area brightness perception or off-axis detection. However, where

65

maximum safety and hence direct straight-on object recognition is critical, such as Line of Sight Object Detection of a pedestrian crossing a street, only photopic lumens should be considered. In Figure 5, the graph shows LRL results for a comparison of a conventional 100W HPS cobra head fixture to LRLL Model A100 LED fixture [12] with equivalent total integrated areas under their spectral power densities. This was measured in a two metre diameter Sphere Optics integrating sphere and generated with the SLM-800 integrating sphere program.

Figure 6 below shows the lumen spectrum for a conventional 100W HPS streetlight with 6650 lumens total fixture output (9500 initial lamp lumens with a fixture optical efficiency of 70%) The HPS spectral power density shown has been weighted at each wavelength by the photopic and scotopic visual sensitivities as incorporated by both the cones (photopic) and rods (scotopic) in the eye. Similarly, Figure 7 also shows the same type of lumen spectrum for LRLs Model A100 streetlight, which is designed to be a more energy efficient replacement for the conventional 100W HPS streetlight producing the same net fixture lumen output of 6650lm. Because of its larger S/P value, the LED light output provides considerably more scotopic content. However, as previously discussed for street and roadway lighting, only photopic output should be considered for IES and CIE roadway safety specifications. On the other hand, since the photopic lumen output of both lights is the same, energy efficiency can be compared on the basis of fixture lumen output per plug watt (lm/W), also called efficacy. A plug watt is the total electrical power input into the fixture. At a fixture output of 6650 lumens, the LED Roadway Lighting Model A100 has a fixture efficacy as high as 94 lm/W [12] (with inclusion of the power supply) whereas a conventional 100W HPS producing the same output lumens has a fixture efficacy of 48.5 lm/W (with inclusion of a standard magnetic ballast with a power supply efficiency of 73%[13][14]). This means that for the same light output, the Model A100 is almost twice as efficacious when compared to the HPS.

Leading the LED technology wave

Overview
At the night-time light levels that are typical of roadways and exterior environments, both cone and rod retinal photo receptors are generally active and participating in vision. This level of night-time illumination is referred to as Mesopic light conditions or Mesopia and ranges approximately between 20.0 and 0.2 horizontal Lux.
In mesopia and when the viewed lighted space is large, i.e., the field of visual view is large, both rods and cones will contribute to the sense of brightness. Besides brightness perception, in mesopia, rods and cones will also both contribute to the ability to notice objects that are not in the line of sight (off-the-visual-axis detection). In these circumstances, standard light meters that are based on pure cone response (photopic response) will not provide an accurate measure of perceived brightness or response time when light sources of differing spectra are compared. This occurs because, even though the compared sources have the same measured photopic output, the sensation of brightness or the response time capability will depend on both light level and the light source spectrum, and is therefore a consequence of equal cone response but different rod responses. Thus two light sources may have the same photopic efficacy in terms of photopic lumens per watt but if one source (e.g. an LED source), is more proficient at eliciting rod response, i.e. that source has a higher scotopic output for the same photopic output (higher S/P value), then that source will have the added benefit of providing a higher level of brightness perception or off-axis response time. On the other hand, such a source could then be adjusted to a lower level of power to provide the same level of brightness perception or response time as the less scotopically proficient source. In this manner and when these visual tasks are a principal concern, there is the added benefit of a means to save energy. It would be valuable for lighting practice concerned with visual responses in Mesopia, as shown in Figure 1 depicting both central field of view and full field of view, to have a method for quantifying the effects of differing spectra so that the potential benefits of one spectrum over another can be ascertained. Because the visual system behaves in a complex manner for these visual tasks, there is no known apriori procedure for determining a valid quantitative algorithm that would correctly capture the spectral effects. Thus empirical laboratory data is the principal resource for establishing relationships that might be of benefit to exterior lighting practice. This white paper incorporates results from a number of past laboratory studies on brightness perception for large areas and off-axis detection at mesopic light levels. Based on the data of those studies, a coarse quantitative means for comparing the spectral efficacy and establishing the benefits of different light sources in that regime is provided. To illustrate the implications of the laboratory studies an application example is considered here. This example compares two light sources with different spectra to determine the source most visually efficacious when a walkway or a parking lot is lit with primary consideration devoted to pedestrian concerns. In this case the sense of safety and visual comfort is enhanced when the lit environment is perceived as bright (Boyce et. Al., 2000). In particular we compare here standard HPS lighting with LED lighting for their efficacy in providing scene brightness perception. This example considers two different viewing conditions.

70

Leading the LED technology wave


In the first view a persons primary view is of asphalt pavement. In the second view the primary view is vegetation. To make the comparison at various mesopic light levels, as is shown later in this white paper, the only spectral measure needed of the two sources is their S/P value, the ratio of scotopic to photopic output (generally independent of intensity level for gas discharge lamps and LED sources) (Berman, 1992). A typical S/P value for an HPS source is about 0.64 while LED sources can easily achieve higher S/P values such as S/P = 1.68 (LRL, 2008).

Table 1. Two spectrally different lightings are compared, distinguished by their S/P values. Their respective light levels are presented based on scene brightness perception for 2 viewing conditions, 7% and 25% reflectance, respectively. The better scene brightness efficiency of the higher S/P lighting allows that lighting level to be lowered to the values in column 2 to provide the same mesopic scene brightness perception according to the 2 viewing conditions. (See text for explanations)

Table 1 summarizes the predictions of the laboratory studies for this example. The reflectance values chosen for the two viewing conditions are from the IESNA Handbook (IESNA, 2002). Although surface reflectance can in general vary of the angle of view we take for this example, a traditional approximation is that the reflectance is independent of viewing angle and that the IESNA reflectance values provide an angular average. As can be seen in Fig. 2, for both different reflectance values of 7% and 25%, the equivalent illuminance, or scene brightness perception, for LED lighting with an S/P ratio 1.68, differs by between 25% and 50% greater efficacy depending on the light level.

The example of Table 1 illustrates the trade-off that occurs between light level and spectrum and shows the potential economic or visual performance benefits achievable by high S/P lighting such as LED lighting. The methodology behind these examples resulting as a consequence of the laboratory studies is described below.

Prologue

As pedestrians who encounter nighttime conditions, our sense of safety and visual comfort is enhanced when the lit environment is perceived as bright (Boyce, et. al., 2000). Furthermore, according to several laboratory studies, our ability to notice the objects around us should also be enhanced when the ambient lighting is perceived as bright (He, et. al., 1997, Eloholma & Halonen, 2006, Fotios, et. al., 2007). Therefore a reasonable goal of good lighting practice for nighttime conditions is to be aware of major principles that can add value to lighting by providing the above desired qualities in the most efficient and acceptable manner. These major principles as discussed below combine the knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the eye with several laboratory studies thereby allowing a reasonable methodology for incorporating lamp spectrum into exterior lighting practice.

72

Leading the LED technology wave

General Principles
1. 2. 3. In terms of retinal anatomy, the cone retinal photo receptors uniquely populate the central retina (fovea) while the remaining retina is populated by both rods and cones (Polyak, 1941). In terms of their physiology as applied to achromatic brightness perception, the different spectral responses of the 3 cones combine into a single composite achromatic response channel (Lennie, et. al., 1993). This channel has the spectral response given by the photopic function V(). On the other hand, the spectral response of the rod receptors, that is always achromatic, is provided by the scotopic function V() (Stiles & Wyszecki, 1982). At the nighttime light levels that are typical of exterior environments, both cone and rod retinal photo receptors are generally active and participating in vision. This level of nighttime illumination is referred to as Mesopic Light Conditions or Mesopia and ranges approximately between 10.0 and 0.01 Lux at the eye (Stiles & Wyszecki, 1982). Note that for cone dominated foveal tasks the V() function remains the applicable sensitivity at all light levels including mesopic levels. In contrast to vehicle drivers whose primary visual attention is straight-ahead viewing and therefore cone dominated, pedestrians are more likely to apply a global visual attention sensing a large surrounding space (large field of visual view) inclusive of the encompassing environment (Loe, 1999). Vehicle drivers will also incorporate to some degree the larger non-central visual field for guidance and for the noticing of objects off to the sides. A large field of view involves light stimulation of both central and non-central portions of the retina during vision. Thus in Mesopia it is reasonable to presume that the contributions of both rod and cone receptors are necessary in order to have a more comprehensive and accurate accounting of the effects of light for these visual objectives.

4. In this regard, there are four important visual phenomena of potential significance to pedestrians and vehicle drivers that have been investigated in related laboratory studies. These are; a) the perception of overall spatial or scene brightness (Kokoschka, S., 1972, Kokoschka & Bodmann, 1975, Ikeda & Shimozono, 1981, Yaguchi & Ikeda 1984, Sagawa &Takeichi 1986, Sagawa &Takeichi,1992, Rea, 1996, Fotios & Cheal, 2007); b) the ability to take notice of objects not directly in the line of sight (reaction time for off-axis detection) (He, et. al., 1997, Walkey et-al 2006, 2007); c) contrast detection thresholds (Freiding, et. al., 2007) and; d) threshold discriminations (Va rady, et. al., 2007). The understanding and quantification of these investigations require incorporating light mediated responses from both cones and rods. 5. Two patterns emerge from these studies. First, the quantity of rod response as empirically determined by including the amount of scotopic luminance required to account for the data, increases as the light level decreases from the upper to the lower level of mesopia. Second, light sources with relatively more scotopic content are therefore more efficient in eliciting these rod-mediated responses.

6. The straight forward measure of relative scotopic content for a light source (or for any given fixed spectral power density) is provided by the ratio of scotopic to photopic quantities (Berman, 1992). This ratio (S/P value)

7. 8. 9. is independent of overall light level so long as the light spectrum of concern does not vary with overall intensity as is essentially the case for gas discharge and LED sources. Three independent parameters are sufficient to provide the correlation of the studies mentioned above in principle 4. These are the measured photopic luminance; the S/P value associated with the spectrum providing the eyes adaptation condition and the empirically determined mixing function, i.e., the specific mix that establishes the relative amounts of photopic and scotopic contributions that describe the state of light adaptation (Berman & Clear, 2001, Rea, et. al., 2004, Eloholma & Halonen, 2006). Because the relative amounts of rod and cone contributions vary with overall light level, the mixing function describing the adaptation conditions will likewise vary with light level. It is also reasonable to expect that the mixing function should depend on the nature of the visual task, but for the different tasks as encompassed by the studies mentioned above in principle 4, the various mixing functions turn out to be rather close. This closeness of mixing function coupled with the realization that there are many photometric unknowns when applying lab studies to real environments, suggests that, for these applications, a single mixing function can be applied that approximately captures the rod effects. This is discussed below in section Constructing the Application Algorithm Light meters are calibrated solely by the cone achromatic collective response, the photopic response function V() (Lennie, et. al., 1993). Furthermore, light level recommendations are generally given in photopic units that, in turn, are based solely on V(). Thus if sources with differing scotopic but equal photopic content are compared in certain mesopic conditions thereby providing the stimulus for different rod responses, conventional light meters will not fully account for the visual effects of the viewed lighting. This could lead to the unexpected result that the outcomes of comparisons of spectrally different lightings would occur in the opposite manner to the conventional light meter indication (Berman, et. al., 1990).

10. Whereas the various laboratory studies can provide simple algorithms for incorporating spectral effects in Mesopia when the visual task is known, the more complex photometric conditions encountered in real nighttime environments may make useful applications to exterior lighting practice equivocal (IESNA, 1999, CIE, 1995). This is emphasized by laboratory conditions where the light adaptation conditions of the are known, i.e. the adaptation luminance of the eye is known and controlled as compared to real environments where the pedestrian or driver is generally confronted with a multitude of spatially differing and not readily determinable luminances. Relevant results of laboratory studies are first summarized and conclusions drawn. Subsequently suggestions are provided regarding point 10 above in order to achieve some degree of applicability to lighting practice.

Technical Background
Calibration of light source radiant output (watts) to visually effective light (photopic lumens) is accomplished by applying the empirically determined photopic sensitivity function (the V(l) function). On the other hand, the effective response of the rods to lighting energy is determined by calibrating light source radiant output by the empirically determined scotopic sensitivity function (Stiles & Wyszecki, 1982).
The two functions are similarly shaped but the scotopic function peaks at the lower wavelength of 507 nm distinguished from the value of the 555 nm peak of the photopic function. When the scotopic sensitivity function is normalized to have the value of 683 lumens at 555 nm (the defining point for the lumen), a light source calibrated by the scotopic function will yield the source scotopic lumens (Stiles & Wyszecki, 1982). This procedure copies that of the determination of a light sources photopic lumens resulting from applying the photopic sensitivity function to that light source spectral power distribution. For a fixed spectral power distribution, the ratio of scotopic to photopic lumens (S/P) is a constant independent of overall illumination level. Thus for most gas discharge lamps and LED sources this ratio will be a constant factor independent of light level and a ratio (S/P value) can be assigned to a specific lamp (Berman, 1992). In the mesopic regime many visual responses to light will depend on both photopic and scotopic quantities. Except for foveal vision that is uniquely cone dominated and therefore purely photopic at all light levels (Walters & Wright, 1943, Yaguchi & Ikeda, 1984), there is no a priori knowledge for a given task that can predict the manner in which these two quantities combine and the task dependent specific combination must be determined by empirical measurement. Quite remarkably, several heavily researched laboratory mesopic tasks, namely large area brightness perception, reaction time for off-axis detection and threshold contrast detection that have the appearance of disparate tasks yield empirical results with approximately similar combinations of the varying scotopic and photopic responses (Adrian, 1999). This fortuitous circumstance could be a benefit to lighting practice because it allows for a reasonable first step in providing an approximate simplified single algorithm that incorporates both rod and cone responses.

Procedures
The development of this single algorithm builds on introducing the concept of mesopic adaptation luminance.
The mesopic adaptation luminance is defined here as that combination of adapting photopic and scotopic luminances that correlates with the light level behavior of a given task. Some cautions in using mesopic adaptation luminance are important because, even though it has the units of luminance the mesopic adaptation luminance is not a luminance in the traditional sense of a photometric quantity as it is a spatially global quantity referring to the light adaptation conditions of the eye (Berman & Clear, 2001, Walkey, et. al., 2006). As such, it is not fundamental in the same manner as photopic and scotopic luminances because there are no new retinal detectors that become active in the mesopic region and furthermore does not obey simple numerical additivity as is the case for ordinary luminances (Clear & Berman, 2001, 2006).

75

Leading the LED technology wave


Furthermore, since mesopic luminance is not a local quantity it cannot be used in the traditional sense to define task contrast. These cautions do not apply to the traditional photopic and scotopic luminances that are defined as local or global photometric quantities and obey additivity in the same manner as numerical algebraic quantities with each luminance type related to a particular retinal receptor. Mesopic adaptation luminance is nevertheless a useful concept because it is constructed so that when two spectrally different light sources have their different outputs of photopic and scotopic luminance adjusted to produce equal visual response, the two sources are deemed to provide the same mesopic adaptation luminance. As mentioned previously, the relative amounts of photopic and scotopic luminances that lead to mesopic adaptation luminances will depend on light levels and possibly task parameters.

Constructing the Application Algorithm

The practical application algorithm that jointly considers the data from the studies of large area brightness perception, off-axis reaction time and threshold contrast may be developed as follows (Berman & Clear, 2001).
The mesopic adaptation luminance in units of cd/m2 is assumed to be a scaled linear combination of photopic P, and scotopic S luminances (also in units of cd/m2) expressed in the form;

Lmes = P + (1-)S = P[ +(1-)S/P]

(1)

This simple additive form is justified on the basis of the approximately valid assumption that the rod and cone systems respond to illumination independently. In addition, the correlated form of the coefficients of P&S above (they add to unity and provide the scaling) is based on the premise that if Lmes were to be determined (analogously to photopic and scotopic luminances) via an integration of a source spectral power density combined with a mesopic spectral sensitivity function, then that mesopic sensitivity function is normalized in the same manner as the photopic and scotopic sensitivity functions, i.e., all have the value 683 lumens at 555nm (Stiles & Wyszecki 1982). Furthermore, from the right side of equation 1 and for a spectral power density with a characteristic of S/P< 1, it follows that Lmes < P and for sources with S/P > 1, it follows that Lmes > P. In general, the mixing function a in equation 1 will depend on the lighting level and possibly the specific task. At low levels Lmes should be purely scotopic so the function will approach zero and at higher levels Lmes should be purely photopic so the function will approach unity. A more comprehensive approach (Ikeda & Shimozono, 1981) has the mix of scotopic and photopic luminances expressed by as functionally determined by Lmes itself. Such a functional dependence is likely as it allows for a feedback within the visual system that should depend on the mixture of S and P that in turn is setting the adaptation conditions. Berman & Clear (2001) used this concept and found that much of the large area brightness perception data as well as the He, et. al., (1997) off-axis reaction time data could both be empirically fit fairly well with a single simple rational fraction function for with the explicit dependence on Lmes as given below by;

76

Leading the LED technology wave

(Lmes) = Lmes /(1/9 + Lmes)


where the empirically numerical constant 1/9, determined by fitting the data, has the units of cd/m2. Since 2001 additional studies on threshold contrast and off-axis reaction time (Walkey et al 2006, 2007, Varady, et. al., 2007) have been completed. If all these studies are also included together in the empirical fit to the data, the empirical constant 1/9 in the above equation changes approximately to the value 1/7 (again in units of cd/m2). Thus presently the best empirical fit for the mixing parameter a based on the combined data of these studies is given by;

(Lmes) = Lmes /(1/7 + Lmes)

(2)

This is the unexpected similarity between the several ostensibly dissimilar tasks mentioned above. Since in eq.2 depends on the mesopic adaptation luminance, this form captures the feedback as mentioned above. The above expression for a (eq.2) allows for the deduction of the first of the 2 important application equations. Given two sources or lighting environments A and B with the same Lmes, i.e. they yield the same visual response we would have Lmes(A)= Lmes(B). Then combining equations 1 and 2 above, the ratio PB/PA is obtained i.e. the ratio of photopic luminances of the 2 sources that provides the same Lmes . Performing the above algebra yields the useful expression

PB = PA(Lmes + kA/7)/(Lmes + kB/7) (3)


where KA = SA/PA and KB=SB/PB (the S/P values for the sources A and B). As mentioned above, when the S/P values are different for the 2 sources but they both produce the same visual task outcome (their values of Lmes are the same) then their photopic luminances will be in the ratio given by equation (3) above. One can also substitute equation (2) into equation (1) and algebraically solve the resultant quadratic equation for Lmes. This yields the following expression for Lmes (in units of cd/m2) in terms of the photopic luminance P associated with a given light source (or lighting environment) and its spectrum ratio S/P = K value.

2Lmes = (P - 1/7 + [(P - 1/7)2 + 4KP/7]1/2). (4)


The above equation for Lmes can be inserted into equation 3 in terms of PA and KA thereby providing an algebraic relationship between PA and PB that only depends on their S/P values for the condition where the 2 sources yield the same Lmes. Equations (3) and (4) constitute a complete closed form algorithm that can be applied to the comparison of various light sources at mesopic conditions for the considerations of large area brightness perception, off-axis reaction time and threshold contrast. Numerical comparisons for selected sources based on a specified photopic luminance condition can be readily calculable from equations (3) & (4) with the knowledge of the source S/P values.
77

Leading the LED technology wave

Based on equation 4, Table 2 below lists a variety of values of Lmes (labeled as L in the table) for various values of S/P and photopic luminances P ranging from 0,01 to 10 cd/m2. The values of Lmes determined by applying equation (4) generally agree within 5% or better with those published by the MOVE project (Eloholma & Halonen 2006). However in the absence of data for large area brightness perception for luminances above approximately 1 to 2 cd/m2, it would be inappropriate to use the values in table 2 for scene brightness and should be restricted to apply only for offaxis detection and threshold contrast. (This is discussed further below in the three paragraphs preceding the conclusion). Equations (3) & (4) coupled with the chosen reflectivities were applied as the methodology to evaluate the example shown in Table 1 of the overview section. Because the S/P value is source dependent, a given sources efficacy to produce a particular value of Lmes that in turn depends on both P and S/P will also depend on both P and S/P. At a given value of P in mesopia and source S/P the traditional luminous efficacy in lumens per watt for that source will be modified by the multiplicative factor Lmes/P when the tasks of spatial brightness perception, off-axis detection and threshold contrast are of concern (see also Lewin 2001). Table 3 lists a variety of values for Lmes/P. (Note Lmes is also labeled L in Table 3.) [It is important to note as mentioned above, that if the task is located in the direct line of sight and subtends a visual angle of 2 degrees or less (the rod free retinal foveal angular area) there would be no rod stimulation from visual task light and the above discussions do not apply. For foveal viewing (where there is foveal light) and when large area spatial brightness is not of concern, the relevant luminance is just the cone based photopic luminance.]

Realistic Environments

Generally pedestrians moving around at night in a lit environment will not have a controlled adaptation luminance as was the case for the laboratory studies. Pedestrians will vary their fixations and move their eyes to different locations that can provide different luminance conditions depending on the light distribution and reflectivity of materials in view. Even if the specified pavement luminance is well produced by the environmental lighting, pedestrians will shift their view to different directions and will not necessarily remain constantly fixating the pavement. Furthermore similar visual uncertainties apply as well to drivers concerned with off-axis visibility. Thus, there is no unambiguous methodology afforded lighting practice for applying the laboratory results that have been evaluated with knowledge of a specific adaptation luminance. To this end some discussion is presented below on how the above laboratory results might be incorporated into an approximate practice.

In an environment where luminance is constant and the view is essentially the full visual field, the photopic illuminance at the eye E with respect to a specific direction of gaze, (which captures the viewed environment reflectivities), is simply related to that constant luminance P by the equation (Walsh 1958),

Pedestrian Environments

78

E[lux] = P [cd/m2]

(5)

where the factor is the projected solid angle of a full 180 degree field. Thus the illuminance at the eye can provide a very rough guide as to what the adapting luminance could be. In many cases the field of view for pedestrians will be large and the illuminance at eye level in the direction of gaze (DOG illuminance for the pertinent direction) can be readily evaluated either by direct measurement e.g., in a retrofit application, or by computer simulation as a design guide, to obtain the DOG illuminance. An approximate adaptation luminance for that direction is then determined by scaling that illuminance by the factor (1/) and that value becomes the input value P for Tables 2 and 3. For example (Boyce, 1999) in a hypothetical retrofit application, an area is lit by HPS lighting and the mean of several photopic and scotopic illuminance measurements made at the eye position in a given direction or alternatively by computer simulation results in mean illuminances 0.314 photopic Lux and 0.188 scotopic Lux respectively. Then the approximate adaptation photopic luminance P is 0.314/ = 0.1cd/m2 and the mean S/P value is (0.188/0.314) =0.6. From Table 2 the mesopic adaptation luminance can then be determined yielding Lmes =0.0736. The value of luminance that would be required by another source with its particular average S/P value to provide the same Lmes can be determined by using equation 3 above or by looking through table 2 to locate the applicable photopic luminance P associated with the alternative S/P that produces the same Lmes as determined for the HPS lighting condition. For example, an LED system with S/P = 1.9 would produce the same Lmes as produced by the above HPS system with an LED luminance of 0.05 or one-half the value required by the HPS system. This can allow the opportunity for power and energy savings depending on overall system efficacies. Similarly if the LED system provides a photopic luminance of 0.05 cd/m2, then the above HPS system would need to be set a twice that luminance value in order to achieve the same Lmes i.e. the same brightness perception or off-axis/threshold contrast detection capability. On the other hand if both sources have the same mean photopic luminance then the LED system by virtue of its higher value of Lmes would provide a higher level of brightness perception as well as better off-axis and contrast detection. In many cases the lit field of view relevant for pedestrians could be less than full field of 180 degrees of visual angle while on the other hand, luminance distributions could be quite non-uniform often peaked in specific directions. Therefore the conversion factor used above in equation (5) for converting average illuminance at the eye to mean adaptation luminance will be somewhat inaccurate by virtue of being either too small or too large a value.

79

Leading the LED technology wave


In some situations significant portions of the retina will have very different adaptation levels such as driving on a well lit roadway but with a minimum of lighting in the surrounding regions off road. In this case the central retina light adaptation level and the peripheral retina light adaptation level would be very different and the relevant luminance for centrally viewed tasks and peripheral view tasks should be considered separately.

Scene brightness perception in the luminance region between 1cd/m2 and 10 cd/m2
Because of lack of brightness perception data it was previously noted above that it would be inappropriate to apply the tabular values of Lmes from the MOVE project or those determined from equation (4) or table 3 to scene brightness in the luminance region above 1 cd/m2. (Depending on surface reflectivities the luminance range of 1 to 10cd/m2 could correspond roughly to horizontal illuminances between 10 to 100 Lux.) However there is good reason to believe that significant higher brightness perception associated with relatively higher S/P spectrum lighting will continue to persist through light levels higher than 1.0 cd/m2 although rods may not be the most significant receptor (Gamlin et-al 2007). This continued higher brightness perception is based on the proposition that pupil size variation and brightness perception are correlated i.e., pupils shrink when lighting appears brighter and dilate when lighting appears dimmer. Past findings have shown that pupil size is not fully maximized (dilated) in the 0.5 to 5.0 cd/m2 region (Spring & Stiles 1949) and secondly that pupil size variation and brightness perception are indeed correlated (Newsome 1971). Further studies examining brightness perception in this high mesopic light level regime would be useful.

Conclusion

In Mesopia and at the same level of photopic luminance, laboratory studies demonstrate quantitatively that scotopically enhanced sources e.g., LED systems, have clear visual and possible economic advantages over scotopically impoverished sources such as HPS. These advantages include brightness perception, the ability to detect off-the-visual axis information and contrast thresholds. Some field studies also support the same conclusions (Morante, 2008). These findings encourage further consideration for the appropriate application with the possibly of implementation of high S/P lighting such as provided by LED systems.

Reliability Prediction Considerations Overview


Dr. Jack Josefowicz, Executive Vice President, Technology Solutions LED Roadway Lighting Limited, January 4, 2012 Reliability is often misunderstood and misused because there have been many different approaches and methods developed for predicting failures in electronics systems. There is often confusion when discussing reliability prediction for electronic systems because the failure rate is dependent on the method used for analysis. Further, for all the widely used methods listed in the table below, the calculated Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) for an electronic system will have different and sometimes large differences in MTBF values. Of the methods listed in the table, Telcordia SR332 has become one of the widely used and most popular tools for reliability prediction. It was first developed at AT&T Bell Labs some 40 years ago to help understand reliability in telecommunications systems. It continues to be one of the most relevant reliability prediction methods and is continuously updated so that it encompasses new information about component reliability and their ratings as new integrated circuit component and electronic components are introduced into the market. The company, Telcordia, provides consulting in electronics, electronics research, develops and provides open standards, logical software, and electronics design. The Telcordia SR332 method for reliability prediction is used in many electronics fields, by both manufacturing companies and their customers, including telecommunications, aerospace, fire and safety electronics, medical electronics, space communications, automotive, and many other fields where reliability and long life expectancy is important. This is the reason LRL chose Telcordia SR332 for reliability prediction.

Telcordia SR332 is a method that calculates failure rate () All electronic systems have a failure rate, which is the number of units failing per unit time. This failure rate changes throughout the life of the product. Initially, during manufacturing of the electronic system, there may be assembly, connector, faulty component and other problems that can lead to early failure, or the infant mortality period (IMP). All manufacturers strive to send product to customers in the field that will not have failures related to infant mortality. To mitigate IMP failures, intensive and well-designed quality assurance and testing must be done to weed out IMP related failures. At LED Roadway Lighting Ltd. (LRL), post electronics assembled power supplies are put through functional testing prior to assembly into lighting fixtures. A variety of parameter checks assures that IMP related failures in the electronic system are caught and not shipped to customers. This leaves a product with a useful life period during which failures occur randomly, i.e., is constant. Once the electronic system and its component reach end of life, i.e., a wear out period, the electronic system useful life is ended and this is where begins to increase dramatically. In the case of LRL designed power supply systems, the useful life is designed to be 20 years. The Telcordia SR332 method, as well as the other methods in the table above, uses calculation strategies that include input of the life (reliability) rating for every single electronics component that is identified to be part of the electronics system. In the design of any electronics system, the selection of components and their reliability rating is critical to the calculated value of MTBF which determines the failure rate, . For example, LRL only uses aerospace-aeronautic quality capacitors that are designed for resistance to vibration, high temperature operation and are constructed and engineered for overall long life. Basically, a commercial capacitor is rated for 26,000 hours (~6 years) at 85C operation, while the LRL aerospace capacitor is rated for 110,000 hours (>20 years) at 85C. If every component in an electronics system is selected with the same high reliability and long life requirement (the method used by LRL), the overall system failure rate will be lower than a commercial low cost system where component selection is primarily influenced by low cost and useful life expectancy is targeted to be just beyond 5 years. There are other reliability factors that also impact overall system reliability and failure rate that are often not included directly in the reliability prediction models discussed above. They include printed circuit board (PCB) design and PCB materials selection, overall PCB layout and design for maximum reliability over the life of the system (i.e., thickness of copper traces, size of spaces between traces, type of dielectric material used and its temperature rating, etc.). Further, other design and component related reliability issues stem from the selection of connectors and other hardware. For example, if the DC output wires from the power supply are not vibration proof or water proof, either vibration or electro galvanic reactions in a wet environment could lead to a system failure, even though the rest of the electronics system is functioning properly. The LED luminaires designed by LRL have power supplies housed in IP67 containment environments and all connectors are protected from the environment, and they have high vibration tolerance. For the calculation of MTBF, strict guidelines are defined by the reliability prediction method used. The value of MTBF for an electronics system is dependent on the number of parts in the electronics system, the reliability rating of each part, the stress condition defined for the operation of the system as well as the operating temperature in the field. During the electronics system useful life period, assuming a constant failure rate, MTBF is defined as the inverse of the failure rate and they can be used interchangeably, i.e.

=1/MTBF
Often, MTBF is misunderstood to mean a minimum, guaranteed, time between failures. This is not correct. The parameter, MTBF, is used to calculate reliability, (R) through a simple exponential distribution equation as follows:

R(t) = e-t/MTBF
where t = time product is in the field, and e is the exponential function. For example, if the calculation of R for an electronic system at a particular operating temperature is 0.96, it would result in reliability (4% failures) of 96% of product in the field. The MTBF does depend on the operating temperature (the higher the operating temperature, the lower the reliability), so that the overall design of the thermal management system, both for the LEDs and the power supply, is a critical design element of any LED light fixture. In the case of LRL LED lighting products (the Satellite Series of LED luminaires from LRL), the thermal management system has ~9 square inches of passive cooling fin per LED and it is also active in keeping the power supply cool. This compares with competitors LED luminaires where there is less than half the fin cooling area. The highly efficient thermal management system designed into LRL LED luminaires results in a lower operating temperature for both the LED and the power supply compared to most LRL competitors products. In summary, LRL luminaires have custom designed high reliability power supply drivers. They have been designed with high reliability components and attention to environmental stress (such as vibration, aggressive thermal cycling, high and low temperatures, high humidity, salt spray, and other such factors). The result is that LRL power supplies have MTBF (determined by a 3rd party) of typically between 2 million and 3 million hours at operating temperature (depending on drive current used and the ambient temperature where they are installed). By contrast, LRL competitors typically use commercial off the shelf power supplies to drive the LEDs. The commercial power supplies typically have MTBF at operating conditions that is a factor of 10 lower, i.e., 100,000 to 200,000 hours. This leads competitors commercial power supplies to have a useful life period that is approximately 1/5th that of LRL power supplies.

Summary of full report prepared by DMD & Associates Ltd., dated March 17, 2010

Report Summary: Nova Scotia Pilot Project (1,100 fixtures) 2009-2010

Project Overview: This pilot project, which commenced in 2009, consisted of a partnership between LED Roadway Lighting Ltd. (LRL), eco Nova Scotia, Conserve Nova Scotia, and Natural Resources Canada. The project included 19 communities throughout Nova Scotia and 1,100 street light fixtures were retrofitted from existing HPS (highpressure sodium) to LRLs SatelliteTM Series LED-based street light fixtures. DMD & Associates Ltd., headquartered in Surrey, BC, was retained to review the computer lighting calculations and design factors brought forward by the supplier (LRL), review testing procedures and calculate energy savings. The report prepared by DMD & Associates Ltd. includes: Technology comparison Discussion of barriers of LED technology Review of industry standards and concepts (e.g. IESNA classification of roadways with varying pedestrian conflict) Overview of calculations and a summary report of calculations, by fixture location Public Opinion To gather public opinion regarding the pilot project, LRL distributed 250 comment cards to a random sample of local residents in the study areas. Questions and results of responses were as follows: Question - Do you view the installations of the LED fixture positively? Response - 95% of the residents responded yes. Question - Would you like to see more in your Municipality? Response - 92% of residents responded yes. Conclusions DMD & Associates Ltd. determined that LRL was able to meet current lighting standards for this pilot project in all of the chosen locations. An average energy savings of 53% was achieved by the installation of the SatelliteTM Series fixtures at the pilot locations, while still meeting IESNA roadway lighting recommended levels. See the table below, which details the energy savings for each location in the pilot study.
