In lighting control systems, accurate data of artificial light (lighting coefficients) are essential for the illumination control accuracy and energy saving efficiency. This research proposes a novel Lambertian-Radial Basis Function Neural Network (L-RBFNN) to realize modeling of both lighting coefficients and the illumination environment for an office. By adding a Lambertian neuron to represent the rough theoretical illuminance distribution of the lamp and modifying RBF neurons to regulate the distribution shape, L-RBFNN successfully solves the instability problem of conventional RBFNN and achieves higher modeling accuracy. Simulations of both single-light modeling and multiple-light modeling are made and compared with other methods such as Lambertian function, cubic spline interpolation and conventional RBFNN. The results prove that: 1) L-RBFNN is a successful modeling method for artificial light with imperceptible modeling error; 2) Compared with other existing methods, L-RBFNN can provide better performance with lower modeling error; 3) The number of training sensors can be reduced to be the same with the number of lamps, thus making the modeling method easier to apply in real-world lighting systems.
