Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1528841A2] A lighting system is controlled by lighting control apparatus 40 dependent on a received input signal 41 representing a required perceived illumination level. The lighting control apparatus comprising a sigma-delta converter having an input filter 47 for providing a filtered input signal 411 from the input signal 41 to a precision comparator 44 for comparing the filtered input signal with a feedback input signal 451 from a system model module 45 simulating an effect of the input signal on the lighting system. A resultant perceived illumination level is compared with the required perceived illumination level, and the precision comparator provides an output signal 42 for controlling a power supply 43 to the lighting system 46 to provide the required perceived illumination level. <IMAGE>
