Abstract :
LED´s luminous efficiency increases rapidly in recent years, many novel illumination applications with LEDs are emerging. Based on the analysis of LED´s characteristics, our optimization scheme and design methods for LED taxiway lamps are proposed. A novel LED lamp using in navigation of the taxiway of the airport is designed as an example. The simulation results demonstrate that the light utilization efficiency is 35%, which is much higher than the current standard with metal halide lamps. This also provides a new design concept for the next-generational LED navigation lamps.
