Research on LED Lighting Control Method for Railway Vehicle Carriage

Because of the communication distance, the more nodes, the requirements of high real-time, LED lighting control system for railway vehicle carriage chooses Controller Area Network (CAN) as the communication mode to achieve centralized control in all carriages. Illuminance gathered from multi-sensors which were installed on the surface of the carriages was feed back to the Industrial Personal Computer (IPC). And then, through the incremental PID control algorithm, the IPC achieve the brightness of the lighting system intelligent control for vehicle consulting brightness intensity which according to the external environment. Experiment shows that this method is practical and effective.
