T. Gerber et F. Steinbacher, MODELS FOR THE SPECTRAL EVALUATION OF ARTIFICIAL-LIGHT SOURCES AND FOR THE COMPARISON OF LIGHT SENSORS, Gartenbauwissenschaft, 63(3), 1998, pp. 130-133
By example of the SON-T- and HQI-T-spectrum, models for the spectral e
valuation of artificial light sources were created and used for the co
mparison of light sensors. Using the spectral evaluation function of p
hotosynthesis as valid basis, both models show the better aptitude of
HQI-T for photosynthetic lighting because of its spectral emission. Am
ong the tested light sensors the Quantum Sensor and the Par 'Special'
Sensor are most suitable for the measurement of the intensity of photo
synthetic active artificial light.
