Exploring the Applicability of the Unified Glare Rating for an Outdoor Non-Uniform Residential Luminaire
The Unified Glare Rating (UGR) and the modified version (UGR’) have been developed and widely accepted in multiple standards for measuring the discomfort glare of a luminaire in typical indoor environments; however, a standardized glare metric for non-uniform outdoor luminaires is still missing. In this paper, the possibility to apply UGR and UGR’ to an outdoor residential luminaire with a non-uniform spatial luminance distribution is explored. The luminaire was characterized in a large near-field goniophotometer (NFG) and luminance images were captured at four angles specified in the CIE 232:2019 document. Some practical issues of applying the UGR’ for a non-uniform residential luminaire are discussed, such as selecting the luminous area, the blurring parameter, the viewing angles, and the background luminance. In addition to these practical issues, possible solutions and suggestions are explored, such as a different blurring parameter, viewing angle, and background luminance. In the end, employing a human visual system to evaluate the amount of discomfort glare for both indoor and outdoor applications might be preferred.
