详细描述
以下详细解释了通过PLC电力线载波系统控制SSL固态发光体装置提供工具和技术。虽然，最少在本文中描述的一些事项，提供了程序模块运行的大体环境，在其中，它们可以和一个操作系统以及在电脑系统中的程序模块一起运作；但是那些有经验的技术员会意识到在结合其他类型的程序模块的情况下的另外的应用方式。通常的，程序模块包括路径，程序，组件，数据结构以及其他的结构类型，用于执行某个任务或者运行某种抽象数据类型。而且，有经验的技术员会认识到在本文中所描述的应用可能可以和其他的计算机系统进行配置，包括手持装置，多处理器系统，基于微处理器的或者可编程的消费电器，微型计算机，大型计算机，以及诸如此类的产品。
以下的详细描述参照了所付图纸，该图纸是详细实例应用的组成部分，并且通过示意图的方式将其展现出来。现在所提及的图纸，在其中，数字就和元素一样通过几个图形来体现，这个描述提供了关于通过PLC电力线载波系统控制SSL固态发光体灯具的各种工具和技术。
附图展示了适用于通过PLC电力线载波系统控制SSL固态发光体灯具的系统或者运行环境，其通常表示为100。这些系统100可能包括任何数目的本地控制器102，附图1中所展示的一个本地控制器102仅仅是出于清楚展示的目的。在附图1中所示的实例中，本地控制器102可能安装在住宅装置中，其表示为104；也可能安装在工业或者商业装置中，其表示为106；或者其还可能安装在附图1明确表示的其他类型的装置中。
至于在住宅或者在工业装置中的应用104，106的详细信息，这些装置可能包括各自的配电网络线路或者电路108，其在楼房或者是其他的建筑内进行供电并组成在住宅或者工业装置104或者106。这些电力配电网络108可能代表任意数目的离散电网或者分支电网，并且可能是单相，多相(如三相三角形，三相Y型等)或者类似的情况，根据交流电/直流电电源109的类型和属性而定。此外，电力配电网络108提供并且配给的电压也可能包括任意数目的不同的电压等级(比如，交流电，直流电或者前述形式任意组合)。电力配电网络108还可能提供任何适当级别的供电电压，这将根据个别应用的环境而定。在一些装置的部分组件中，电力配电网络108可能代表其中用于转换和分配电源的导体或者装置。
之后的图纸提供了适合应用本地控制器102的实例机构体系以及组件。但是总的来看，本地控制器102可以通过电力配电网络108向安装在住宅装置104以及工业装置106中任何数目的照明灯具发送控制信号。这些照明灯具并没有在附图1中标出，但是会在以后的图纸中对其进行详细描述。更明确的是，照明灯具可以用固态发光体SSL技术提供照明。此外，本地控制器102可以从照明灯具那接收回馈信息。为了清晰地说明，附图1将这些控制信号以及回馈信息归总到110
至于本地控制器102的更多详细信息，这些控制器102可能存在包含一个或者更多的处理硬件的情况，在附图1中提供了一个处理器112作为这些处理硬件的一个实例。该处理器112可能具有某种选用于某种用途的类型或者机构体系。此外处理器112可能连接到一个或者更多的总线系统114，其中有和处理器112兼容的类型以及/或者适用的机构体系。
本地控制器102可能包括一个或者跟多的物理层面上的电脑可读的储存媒介或者媒介116，其和总线系统114连接。总线系统114使处理器112可以在电脑可读储存媒介116上读取或者写入编码或者数据。媒介116代表了储存元素的仪器，其可以通过任何合适的技术来实现，包括但不限于半导体，磁性材料，光学或者类似的材料。媒介116可能代表内存组成，或者表现为RAM，ROM，闪存，或者其类型的技术。媒介116同样可能代表次要储存，可以是硬盘，CD光驱，DVD光驱，或者类似的。硬盘的使用可以是固态的也可以是旋转型媒介来储存磁力编码信息。
储存媒介116可以包括一个或者多个软件指令模块，当其被载入处理器112中执行的时候，促使本地控制器112参与通过PLC电力线载波系统对SSL固态发光体灯具的控制。根据在本案中的详细信息，这些指令模块同样可以提供各种工具或者技术，通过它们，本地控制器102可以使用组件，流，以及在本案中将会详细讨论的数据结构来通过PLC电力线载波系统控制SSL固态发光体灯具。
总的来说，用于控制在PLC电力线载波系统上的SSL固态发光体灯具的软件模块，在载入处理器114并且被执行的时候，可以将处理器112以及所有的本地控制器从普通用途的计算系统转换成特殊用途的计算系统，以配合控制在PLC电力线载波系统上的SSL固态发光体灯具。处理器114可以从任意数量的晶体管或者其他分立电路元件处构建，其可以个别地或者总体地呈现任何数量的状态。更详尽的来说，处理器114可以作为限定状态的结构运作，来响应储存在媒介116中的软件模块中可执行的指令。这些电脑可执行的指令可以规定处理器114如何在状态下转换而对其进行转换，从而将组成处理器114的晶体管以及其他离散的硬件元素进行实体转换。
用于控制在PLC电力线载波系统上的SSL固态发光体灯具编码的软件模块同样还可以转化储存媒介116的物理结构。具体的物理结构的转化可能根据不同的因素，在本文所描述的不同的应用而不同。这些因素的实例包括，但不限于：用于储存媒介116的应用的技术，无论储存媒介116是主要的或者次要的储存，以及类似的。例如，如果储存媒介116是基于半导体内存的，用于控制在PLC电力线载波系统上的SSL固态发光体灯具编码的软件可以将半导体内存的物理状态转换，如果软件是被编码在那里面的话。比如，软件可以转换组成半导体内存的晶体管，电容器，或者其他分立电路元件的状态。
作为又一个例子，储存媒介116应用磁性或者光学技术，在这种情侠，用于控制在PLC电力线载波系统上的SSL固态发光体灯具编码的软件可以转换磁性或者光学媒介的物理状态，如果该软件被编码在那里面的话。其转换可能包括改变在所给出的磁性媒介中特定位置磁性特征。其转换还可能包括改变在所给出的光学媒介中特定位置物理特征，以改变该特定位置的光学特征。在不背离本案的范围和原则的情况下，其他的物理媒介转换是可能的，上述的所举的例子仅仅是出于本讨论之便。
本地控制器102可能也包括PLC电力线载波调制解调器118，其通过总线系统114连接已和其他的本地控制器102的组件进行通讯。更明确地，PLC电力线载波调制解调器118可以作为在本地控制器102的总线系统114和电力配电网络108之间的界面接口。在实例应用中，本地控制器102可能被安装在楼房总作为住宅装置104或者工业商业装置106的一个部分。
一个或者更多的所提供的PLC电力线载波调制解调器118通过PLC电力线载波系统120覆盖一个所给出的装置104或者106中的电力配电网络108。更明确地，PLC电力线载波调制解调器118可以向并且从电力线载波系统120发射以及接收信号/回馈110a。反过来，电力线载波系统120可以向或者从任何数目的SSL固态发光体照明节点发射或者接收122a以及122n(总称为：照明节点122)这些信号/回馈。SSL固态发光体照明灯具例子可能包括但是不限于：如发光二极管(LED)，发光电容器(LEC)，发光晶体管(LETS)以及类似的技术。
PLC电力线载波系统120可能包含有运转的通讯桥，以能够和其他的计算装置通过以太网，无线网络，红外等类似途径进行通讯。无线通讯可以包括射频(RF)能力，或者类似的。这个通讯通道可以在PLC电力线载波系统120的故障区域进行通讯，通过补充的有线或者无线通讯技术绕过该故障区域。
发送到SSL固态发光体照明节点122的控制信号可以指挥照明节点进行照明或者关闭，还可以指挥SSL固态发光体照明节点122进行颜色混合，输出某种光色。比如，SSL固态发光体照明节点122可能包含有可以进行红绿蓝(RGB)三色输出能力的SSL固态发光体元件，而控制信号可以给特定的照明节点规定特定的RGB值。我们注意到，白色光可以通过RGB值的规定进行控制。不同说法是，白色光可以称作“彩色”光。此外，在此所述的颜色混合功能可以通过任何适合的调制方案来执行，包括但是不限于在此所述的调制方案。
附图1展示了在124a向/从SSL固态发光体照明节点122a上传送的控制信号/回馈，并且1展示了在124n向/从SSL固态发光体照明节点122n上传送的控制信号/回馈。
本案为通过PLC电力线载波系统120发送SSL固态发光体控制信号，其可能安装在装置104以及106中的电力配电网络108中。但是，本案的一些应用同样可能至少安装在用于给装置104以及106供电的外部电网的PLC电力线载波系统120的部件中。换个说法而言，SSL固态发光体控制信号可能在外部电网或者内部电力配电网络中传送。
附图2展示了实力组件以及信号流，其通常表示为200，并且和通过PLC电力线载波系统120发送的控制以及/或者回馈信号有关。更明确的说，PLC电力线载波调制解调器118可以接收控制信号202，并且将这些信号通过PLC电力线载波系统120传送到SSL固态发光体照明节点122。反过来，PLC电力线载波调制解调器204a以及204n(总称为，PLC电力线载波调制解调器204)和相应的SSL固态发光体照明节点122a以及122n联合在一起。PLC电力线载波调制解调器204a以及204n可以通过PLC电力线载波系统120监视发送到SSL固态发光体照明节点122a的任何控制信号。当发送到SSL固态发光体照明节点122a的控制信号出现在PLC电力线载波系统120上的时候，PLC电力线载波调制解调器204可以析取这些信号，进行适当的分析及解译并且将其发送到SSL固态发光体照明节点122a上以进行处理，过程如206a所示。
PLC电力线载波调制解调器118以及204可以控制PLC电力线载波系统120覆盖那些有着任意上述电力特征的电路108。此外PLC电力线载波调制解调器118以及204可以提供相位耦合功能，在其中，PLC电力线载波调制解调器118以及204可以将信号从一个相位转移到其他相位。比如，PLC电力线载波调制解调器118以及204可以耦合单相电路到多相电路，或者可以在一个多相线路中耦合不同的相位去和其他的进行通讯。
PLC电力线载波调制解调器118以及204可以通过PLC电力线载波系统120使用适当的调制技术来互相通讯。该类调制技术的例子包括但不限于：差分码移键控(DCSK)技术，自适应键控技术(ACSK)，频移键控技术(FSK)，正交频分复用技术(OFDM)，以及类似的技术。
同样的PLC电力线载波调制解调器204n可以监控通过PLC电力线载波系统发送到SSL固态发光体照明节点122n上的任何控制信号。附图2提供了这些控制信号在206n的例子。
如附图2所示，SSL固态发光体怎么节点122a以及122n可以和相应的地址208a以及208n(总称为地址208)联合在一起，如PLC电力线载波系统120环境所规定那样。这些地址208可以让PLC电力线载波调制解调器204能够鉴别发送到特定SLL固态发光体怎么节点122的控制信号。
我们注意到地址208可以代表静态的地址或者动态的地址，而且，SSL固态发光体照明节点122可以执行静态或者动态的地址方案。静态地址方案例子包括一些设定，其中或多或少地，一个给定的SSL固态发光体照明节点122被永久地分配并且配置于响应一个给定的网络地址。动态地址方案例子包括一些设定，其中一个给定的SSL固态发光体照明节点122在不同的时候被分配并且配置于响应不同的网络地址
除了从PLC电力线载波系统120上接收控制信号206a以及206n(总称为控制信号206)以外，SSL固态发光体照明节点122还可以产生回馈信息，并且通过PLC电力线载波系统120将这些信号发送回去给本地控制器102处理。附图2提供了源自SSL固态发光体照明节点122a的回馈信息210a以及源自SSL固态发光体照明节点122n的回馈信息210n的例子。反过来，PLC电力线载波调制解调器204a以及204n可以相应地分析及解译回馈信息210a以及210n以通过PLC电力线载波系统120传播。
PLC电力线载波调制解调器204还可以操作以为一个未分割的PLC电力线载波系统120提供一定程度的分割。更明确地说，从特定的照明节点122的反馈信息210可能包含有在照明节点122处本地发生的变化状况通知(比如，照明开/关，现时占用状态等)。但是，PLC电力线载波系统120可能是一个窄带宽网络，所以如果无数个照明节点122都报告各自的本地状态跟新的话，PLC电力线载波系统120可能会变得过载了。此外，有的状态报告可能是无用的，并且不值得通过PLC电力线载波系统120进行报告。相应地，PLC电力线载波调制解调器204可以提供一个过滤功能，占用它们不会讲每一个回馈或者状态更新情况都报告，但是仅仅这些信息的子集。
PLC电力线载波调制解调器204可以在特定的PLC电力线载波系统120中提供一定程度的分割。也就是说，PLC电力线载波调制解调器204可以执行连接在其上的照明节点122周边的子网络。
根据之前的描述，我们从附图2可以看到，信号124a总体上代表了控制信号206a以及回馈信号210a，同样地，信号124n总体上代表了控制信号206n以及回馈信号210n。附图2展示了节点回馈通过PLC电力线载波系统120发送并且被PLC电力线载波调制解调器118所接收的212实例。
附图3展示了实例组件，通常表示为300，其可能包含在SSL固态发光体照明节点中。附图3进一步展示了在附图2中的一个典型的SSL固态发光体照明节点122，和一个相应的典型地址208。此外附图3还进一步展示了一个实例PLC电力线载波调制解调器204代表SSL固态发光体照明节点122作为一个通讯卡来运作。
通常地，SSL固态发光体照明节点122被看做是通过PLC电力线载波系统120设定的地址终端的物理形式。更明确地说，本地控制器102可以通过向这些SSL固态发光体照明节点122发送控制信号206来通过PLC电力线载波系统120配置或者控制SSL固态发光体照明节点122。
如附图3所示，SSL固态发光体照明节点122可能包括一个电力转换器302，其从电力配电网络108上接收可用输入电源304(附图I)。入电源304的属性以及类型可能因不同的应用而异，根据从电力配电网络108上分配的电源的特性而定。根据上面关于电力配电网络108的描述的讨论，输入电源304可能是单相的，多相的或者其的情况。此外，输入电源304可能是AC交流电源或者DC支流电源，其供电电压水平也不同。
电源转换器302可以接收PLC电力线载波调制解调器204通过电力线载波系统120传送过来的控制信号206。在响应控制信号206的时候，电源转换器302可以根据控制信号规定来调制输入电源304。附图3展示了电源转换器302在输出306的情况。
SSL固态发光体照明节点122可能包括一个或者更多的SSL固态发光体阵列308，出于展示的便利，附图3展示了单个SSL固态发光体阵列308。
通常地，SSL固态发光体阵列308可能包括任何数目的不连续的SSL固态发光体元件，其被适当安排以及组装以作特定应用。仅作例子来说，此并不能限制作为本案的可能应用范围；SSL固态发光体阵列308可以被配置于为在住宅或者商业楼房里面的房间或者空间照明。在一些情况中，SSL固态发光体阵列308还被包含在SSL固态发光体灯具中，其被应用于现有建筑中对其进行花样更新且达到控制目的。在其他的情况中，SL固态发光体灯具可以安装到新的建筑中。
SSL固态发光体阵列308可以具备数码装置的特点，可以响应电源转换器302的输出306来进行操作，来提供在控制信息206中规定的照明水平。在实例应用中，电源转换器302可以采用任何数目不同的方案来根据控制信号206的规定来调制输入电源304.，这样会得到一个调制好的输出电源306供应到SSL固态发光体阵列308，例如，电源转换器302可以采用脉冲宽度调制(PWM)及脉冲波形调制系统(PSM)，脉冲编码调制(PCM)，位角调制(BAM)的，平行脉码调制(PPCM)，或其他调制技术，无论是已知或将来开发的。
通常地，SSL固态发光体阵列308的照明输出根据发送到SSL固态发光体阵列308调制电源306的占空比来响应。具有详细而言，如果控制信号规定要点亮SSL固态发光体阵列308，调制电源306的占空比会相应地低增加。反过来，如果控制信号规定要将SSL固态发光体阵列308变暗，调制电源306的占空比会相应地低减少。通常地，电源转换器302也可以用作一个SSL固态发光体驱动器，配置并且用适当的操作方式驱动SSL固态发光体阵列308获得规定的照明水平。
PLC电力线载波调制解调器204以及电源转换器302可能包括任何适当的硬件组合以及/或者软件配置，以达到本文中所描述的功能。附图3展示的PLC电力线载波调制解调器204以及电源转换器302是分开的，这仅仅是出于现在的描述之便，其不限制本案的其他可能应用。例如，本案中的一些应用可能结合分配到PLC电力线载波调制解调器204以及电源转换器302的功能，并且将其应用于一个整合的硬件方案中(比如，一个单一的整合芯片IC)。但是，本案的其他的应用可能提供一个多芯片方案，其包括执行PLC电力线载波调制解调器204以及电源转换器302的独立硬件。
关于在附图1中所示的PLC电力线载波调制解调器118，在附图2和3中所示的PLC电力线载波调制解调器204，在附图3中所示的电源转换器302，以及处理器112(附图1)以及310(附图3)，任何这些组件的可以实现为单芯片或者多芯片类型。也就是说，在所附图纸中所展示的各种组件形式，不限制这些组件应用成单芯片形式。
在附图3所示的实例中，PLC电力线载波调制解调器204以及/或者电源转换器302可能包括一个或者多个处理硬件310，总线系统312以及计算机可读储存媒介314的形式。回到前面的附图1的描述，本地控制器102可能包括处理器硬件112，总线系统114以及计算机可读储存媒介116。通常地，前面关于在附图1中的这些元件的描述一样适用于在附图3中所示的处理硬件310，总线系统312以及计算机可读储存媒介314。比如，就PLC电力线载波调制解调器204以及/或者电源转换器302中包括的软件组件这个方面来说，该软件组件可能位于计算机可读储存媒介314中，并且会被通过总线系统312加载到处理器硬件310中。反过来，处理器硬件310可以处理软件，从而转换处理器硬件310去执行在PLC电力线载波调制解调器204以及电源转换器302中不同的功能
附图4提供了组件以及信号流，通常表示为400，展示了SSL固态发光体节点如何可以在可能的应用情况下控制单个SSL固态发光体阵列或者多个SSL固态发光体阵列。例如，PLC电力线载波调制解调器204a可以从PLC电力线载波系统120上接收全部的信号流124a。反过来，PLC电力线载波调制解调器204a可以生成控制信号206a，其将配置电源转换器302a来调制输入电源304a来驱动SSL固态发光体阵列308a按照控制信号206a的规定发出指定水平的照明。在附图4所示的实例中，SSL固态发光体照明节点122a可能包含电源转换器302a以及一个单一的SSL固态发光体阵列308a。相应地，在附图1中所示的本地控制器102可以命令SSL固态发光体照明节点122a控制该单一SSL固态发光体阵列308a。
在附图4中所示的另外一个实例中，SSL固态发光体照明节点122n包括电源转换器302n，其被连接并且驱动数量较多的SSL固态发光体阵列308x和308y。更详细的说，PLC电力线载波调制解调器204n可以通过PLC电力线载波系统120来接收全部的信号，并且生成控制信号206n用于配置电源转换器302n。反过来，电源转换器302n可以调制输入电源304n来驱动多个SSL固态发光体阵列308x和308y来响应控制信号206n。相应地，本地控制器102(附图1)可以命令SSL固态发光体照明节点122n控制多个SSL固态发光体阵列308x和308y。
谈及多个SSL固态发光体阵列308x和308y的更多细节，这些SSL固态发光体阵列308x和308y都可以连接到电源转换器302n上，使用一个或者多个合适的低压总线或者电缆。为了展示的便利，附图4中省略了这些总线或者电缆。
在实例应用中，多个SSL固态发光体阵列308x和308y可以代表安装在一个给定的房间，走廊或者其他的区域等这些一般受控或者受控制的区域中的多个SSL固态发光体灯具。这些SSL固态发光体阵列308x和308y可能是或者也可能不是受同一个分支电路供电。
在一些应用中，一个给定的PLC电力线载波调制解调器204a或者204n可能被连接对多个照明节点122进行通讯或者控制。相应地，这些在附图4中所示的实例可能被连接于一个或者多个低压转换器(例如302a或者302n)，后者反过来可能连接到一个或者多个阵列308
图5所示的是处理流，通常表示为500，用于将控制信号发送到SSL固态发光体照明节点122。为了使处理流500的讨论更便利，但并非仅限于本案的应用，图5展示的是本地控制器102与SSL固态发光体照明节点122连接的实例。图5同时也展示了控制信号501通过PLC电力线载波系统的本地控制器102进入的SSL固态发光体照明节点122的实例。控制信号501是如图1所示的控制/回馈信号110的一个子集。
至于处理流500更多的细节，块502展示的是产生或接收一个或多个用于控制一个或多个SSL固态发光体阵列的命令。此命令能够使一个或多个SSL固态发光体阵列变暗，完全关闭或达到使其到达指定的亮度。

块506代表在块502中收到的或产生的并且和控制信号编码相对应的命令。如例，该模块可能包含了通过PLC电力线载波系统120传送的此类控制信号编码。在块506中运行的特殊编码取决于PLC电力线载波调节解调器所运用或支持的协议。
块508代表是将控制信发送到入与被控的SSL固态发光体阵列308相关联SSL固态发光体照明节点112的地址的过程。如例，块502可能包含了接收了能使多个不同的SSL固态发光体阵列308达到指定的照明亮度的命令。此类SSL固态发光体阵列308可能会或可能不会连接到同一个SSL固态发光体照明节点122。因此，块509可能包含了能使控制信号进入SSL固态发光体照明节点的地址
块510所示的是编码控制信号注入PLC电力线载波系统120。图5所示，501A的本地控制器102把控制信号注入到PLC电力线载波系统120。如上所述，根据特定的安装的情况，控制信号可以注入一个或多个SSL固态发光体照明节点122。
图5表明特定SSL固态发光体照明节点122可以分析控制信号，其为501b。在特定的SSL固态发光体照明节点122中，块512展示了对在PLC电力线载波系统120中的控制信号是否注入SSL固态发光体照明节点122进行了评估。根据块512的决定，如果控制信号501b没有注入到SSL固态发光体照明节点122时，处理流500会停在块514，不进入分支514，并在块512中循环。更具体而言，处理流500会停在块512中直到PLC电力线载波系统120的控制信号501b注入到SSL固态发光体照明节点122。一旦此信号在PLC电力线载波系统出现，处理流500会经过肯定(YES)分支516进入块518。
块518代表对注入到SSL固态发光体照明节点122的控制信号进行提取和分析及解译。在块518中进行的提取和分析及解译的类型和性质由附图2中所示的PLC电力线载波调制解调器204所支持的协议而定。
块520代表了配置电源转换器或SSL固态发光体驱动(如图3的302)以响应块518所分析及解译的控制信号。如上所述，一个特定的SSL固态发光体照明节点可能被配置以驱动任何数量的SSL固态发光体阵列。

块524显示了发送或引导调制电源进入一个或多个和既定的固态发光体照明节点122连接的SSL固态发光体阵列。换而言之，是块524包含了本地控制器102生成的在块502的，使SSL固态发光体阵列达到其指定亮度水平的控制信号。
图6展示了处理流，通常表示为600，用于将反馈信息通过SSL固态发光体照明节点122注入到本地控制器102中。至于本案的可能的应用有怎么样限制，反馈信息601可以看做是在图1所示的控制回馈信号110的子集。
在SSL固态发光体照明节点122上，块602展示了在一个或多个本地控制器和PLC电力线载波系统传输之间回馈数据的产生。如例，此回馈数据可能包含了由SSL固态发光体照明节点122在特定时间所经历的电力荷载状态。回馈信息同时显示了SSL固态发光体照明节点122的温度状态，综合使用状态，以及响应特定的命令或控制信号的状态等。在某些情况下，和SSL固态发光体照明节点相连接的传感器可以检测此类回馈信息。此传感器可以被配置来检测和报告任何影响本地的SSL固态发光体照明节点122的信息。
块604展示的是编码回馈信息通过PLC电力线载波系统传输。如例，块604可能包含了由和SSL固态发光体照明节点122相关联的PLC电力线载波调节解调器所支持协议的回馈信息(如附图2的204)。
块606代表的是与SSL固态发光体照明节点122和与之相对应的地址的回馈信息。在实例应用中，块606可能包含了将此类地址信息加载到下一个结构中。在此种情况下，在回馈信息传送到本地控制器102上编码时，本地控制器102会确定回馈信息是由哪个SSL固态发光体照明节点122发送的。
块608显示了通过PLC电力线载波系统120的回馈数据的注入。图6中显示了回馈数据注入PLC电力线载波系统的实例601。
根据本地控制器102，决定块610代表的是评估回馈数据是否在PLC电力线载波系统120上有用的过程。图6显示了本地控制器102从PLC电力线载波系统120上接收到的回馈信息601。
在决定块610后，只要回馈信息601b不在PLC电力线载波系统120上，处理流600将会采用否定(YES)支流612并且绕610循环。但是，根据决定块610，一旦PLC电力线载波系统120存在回馈信息601b，处理流会通过614采用(YES)肯定支流614来到块616
块616显示的是回馈数据601b的提取和编码。如例，本地控制器102提供的PLC电力线载波调节解调器118会对回馈信息601b进行分析及解译。
在本案的一些应用中，块618显示的是回馈信息601与最少一个在之前被发送到SSL固态发光体照明节点122控制信号相关联。比如，SSL固态发光体照明节点122可能产生和传输某些回馈信息，对本地控制器102发送的清晰的控制信号或者要求进行响应。在其他情况，SSL固态发光体照明节点122可能在事件驱动的基础上自动地产生和传输回馈信息601。在后者的情况下，回馈信息601可能和/从本地控制器102之前所发送的控制信号分相独立。
并不仅限于此描述的这个应用，至少一部分的可由软件执行的处理流500和600包含在本地控制器102和/或SSL固态发光体照明节点122提供的电脑可读储存媒体中。如图1展示了本地控制器102包含的电脑可读储存媒体116例子，图3展示了与SSL固态发光体照明节点122相连的电脑可读储存媒体314的实例。
图7展示了过程，通常表示为700，用于将SSL固态发光体照明阵列，SSL固态发光体照明驱动和/或PLC电力线载波系统调节解调器安装或改造到建筑装置中。例如，在某些使用情况，过程700包含了将SSL固态发光体照明阵列，SSL固态发光体照明驱动和/或PLC电力线载波系统调节解调器安装在之前没有安装的照明灯具的新的建筑或者进行更新改造的过程。在其他情况下，过程700可能包括更换现有的SSL固态发光体照明阵列，SSL固态发光体照明阵列驱动器和/或PLC电力线载波系统调节解调器。
关于程序700的更多细节，块702中展示移除一个或多个现有照明控制装置。如此类装置可能包含开关或开关装置，其会安装在墙上或其他方便的位置。块702显示了一个或多个现有照明灯具的移除，例如，在这种情况中，处理流程700是用SSL固态发光体灯具来替换现有的照明灯具。但是，必须注意的是块702和704以任意类型的相互关系来运行。此外，需注意的是，不是所有的处理流都一定会运行块702和704的流程情况。
块706显示出一个或多个SSL固态发光体阵列的安装(如图3的308)。块708显示的是一个或多个电源转换器元件的安装(如图3的302)。如上所述，电源转换器的元件可以用作SSL固态发光体驱动器，来驱动控制信号到SSL固态发光体阵列使其达到拟定的照明强度。块710显示的是一个或多个PLC电力线载波调节解调器的安装(如图2和图3的204)。

如本文中所描述那样，用PLC电力线载波调节解调器和相关通信装置来更换照明控制开关，安装更多的颗粒状照明节点控制，特别是，相对于那些在安装在墙上的“开-关“的控制开关而言。例如，通过PLC电力线载波系统，PLC电力线载波调节解调器可以来进行单独控制，而和相关的PLC电力线载波调节解调器链接的SSL固态发光体阵列则会受控使其可以产生任何拟定照明强度，包括其亮度，颜色或其他因素。
如上所述，在此类描述的应用中，PLC电力线载波调节解调器可以和电源转换器一起组合成单芯片方案。在这种情况下，块714或块716可以代表将照明开关更换成这种电路集成方案的过程。
总体上，在用PLC电力线载波调节解调器和/或电源转换器来更换开关元件的应用中，SSL固态发光体阵列的实体则和PLC电力线载波调节解调器和/或电源转换器分离开来。例如，PLC电力线载波调节解调器和/或电源转换器安装在墙上一个位置，SSL固态发光体阵列则安装在天花板。因此，块718展示了将PLC电力线载波调节解调器在电源转换器处和SSL固态发光体阵列连接。如例，块718可能包括安装一个低压电缆，来连接SSL固态发光体阵列和PLC电力线载波调节解调器或电源转换器。

如上所述，一个特定SSL固态发光体照明节点可以控制一个或多个SSL固态发光体阵列。在应用中，如果用一个SSL固态发光体照明节点(如电源转换器)来控制多个SSL固态发光体阵列，块722展示了安装任意低压电缆将一个SSL固态发光体照明节点和多个SSL固态发光体阵列连接。
此前的描述提供通过PLC电力线载波系统控制SSL固态发光体灯具的技术。尽管此类描述采用具有电脑结构特色的语言，方法论与电脑可读媒介，但是在本文中所附的申请的应用范围没必要仅限于前面所述的特定的特征，方案，或者是本文所述的媒介。此外，此类描述提供的是展示性的，而不是限制性的应用。此外，在不背离本案的精神和范围的情况下，此类使用方案可以在各个方面进行修改和变化，就此，提出本申请。
