Incentive-based demand response (IBDR) is an important category of demand response (DR) programs with large untapped potential, especially in the residential sector. Understanding customers elasticity is key to effective design of incentives. However due to limited information, price-based elasticity is needed in IBDR modeling as well. In this work, customer elasticity for an IBDR program is calculated...
Most LED luminaires encounter the problem of color non-uniformity in illumination fields. In order to address the issue, we propose a ripple TIR lens, which can apply to both phosphor-converted LEDs and multicolor LED arrays and achieves good color performance. The ripple TIR lens consists of a collimator and a ripple panel. Simulation results based on a precise phosphor-converted white LED model...
In this paper, a novel method is proposed to design the first order lens of the packaging module of LEDs. The first order lens consists of a total internal reflector (TIR) and two freeform surfaces. Height of the first order lens is 8mm. The diameter of its maximum caliber is 6mm. Light rays with lager emitting angles will be collimated by TIR, freeform surface 1 will collimate light rays within smaller...
Total Internal Reflection (TIR) lenses are optical components which are used to collimate the light. Desired uniform illumination within a limited beam angle is easy to be achieved by integrating LEDs with TIR lenses. However, most TIR designs do not pay attention to the color uniformity, an increasing important issue for the quality of lighting, and have a considerable dimension, which also limits...
Secondary optics design in the past research only considered illuminance uniformity and ignored luminance uniformity and glare issue, which may result in serious security problem for vehicle drivers. A novel un-symmetric freeform LED lens designed for roadway lighting is proposed. Optical performance of un-symmetric lens will be compared with symmetric lens by optical software. The simulation results...
In this paper, we analyze the optical features of different LED packaging types in forward-lighting application. There are generally two packaging types: point source and line source. For the two different packaging types, we introduce several high-efficient supporting opticses in forward-lighting application.

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) modules integrated with multi-functions are essential to LED luminaires manufacturers. We demonstrated a 16W application specific LED packaging (ASLP) module integrated with optical, cooling and powering functions for road lighting. A lens design method for extended source was introduced briefly and a borosilicate glass freeform lens for the module was designed according...
To date, most facial expression analysis has been based on visible and posed expression databases. Visible images, however, are easily affected by illumination variations, while posed expressions differ in appearance and timing from natural ones. In this paper, we propose and establish a natural visible and infrared facial expression database, which contains both spontaneous and posed expressions...
Traditional LED packaging always adopts hemisphere lens, although which can ensure high light output efficiency, its light beam is of circular symmetry and non-uniformity. Therefore, LED by traditional packaging cannot be applied in lighting directly and bulky secondary lenses have to be used, which will make the traditional lighting companies difficult to switch to LED lighting and the lamps are...
High power white light emitting diodes (LEDs) have begun to play an important role in many illumination applications due to their excellent performance.

Optical analysis is critical to the evaluation of an LED MR16 lamp, especially when the lamp is still in its early stage of development and applications and when optimization is needed for making use of unique characteristics of LEDs. In this study, optical research of a 3W LED MR16 lamp was conducted. The experimental results demonstrated that the LED MR16 lamppsilas angle of full width at half intensity...
