SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING SOLID STATE LIGHTING DEVICES AND LIGHTING APPARATUS INCORPORATING SUCH SYSTEMS AND/OR METHODS

A solid state lighting apparatus includes a first plurality of light emitting devices configured to emit light when energized having a first chromaticity, a second plurality of light emitting devices configured to emit light when energized having a second chromaticity, different from the first chromaticity, and a controller configured to control a duty cycle of current supplied to the first plurality of light emitting devices. The controller is configured to control the duty cycle of the first plurality of light emitting devices in response to a change in a plurality of operating conditions of the solid state lighting apparatus in accordance with a model of the duty cycle that relates the duty cycle of the first plurality of light emitting devices to the plurality of operating conditions of the solid state lighting apparatus for a target light output characteristic of the solid state lighting apparatus. Related methods are also disclosed.
