%0 Journal Article %T Halogen Automatic Daylight Control System Based on CMAC Controller with Triangular Basis Functions %A Hora£¿iu £¿tefan Grif %A Mircea Dul£¿u %J Scientific Bulletin of the ''Petru Maior" University of T£¿rgu Mure£¿ %D 2011 %I Editura Universit??ii "Petru Maior" %X In general, in an automatic daylight control application, the automatic lighting control system (ALCS) attempt (due to the controller presence) to maintain constant the illuminance at a desired level even the daylight illuminance is variable. The paper describes the design, the implementation and the tuning of a CMAC (Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller) type controller used in an automatic daylight control system, where the lighting process is implemented by a halogen lamp. After the tuning of CMAC controller, is presented the behaviour of the ALCS when the illuminance is disturbed by a supplementary electric light source (a halogen desk lamp). Even the applied control structure uses a gross approximation of the real inverse model of process the ALCS will have a good behaviour achieving the imposed performances for an automatic control system used in this specific application. %K daylight control %K automatic lighting control system %K CMAC structure %U http://scientificbulletin.upm.ro/papers/2011/06/Grif-Dulau-Halogen-Automatic-Daylight-Control-System-Based-on-CMAC-Controller.pdf
