Devices, systems, and methods for maintaining luminaire color temperature levels in a gateway based system

A system for controlling luminaire color temperature, comprising:

• a gateway configured to control at least one of a dimming level and a dimming control protocol of at least one of a first luminaire and a second luminaire;
• a sensor subsystem in data communication with the gateway;
• and
• a server in data communication with the gateway and the sensor subsystem, wherein the sensor subsystem is configured to measure a current color intensity of the first luminaire, the server is configured to calculate a current color temperature of the first luminaire based at least in part on the current color intensity of the first luminaire, and the sensor subsystem is configured to communicate the current color intensity of the first luminaire to the server if the current color intensity of the first luminaire is outside of an expected color intensity range that is expected by the sensor subsystem, based at least in part on a first relationship determined by a comparison of a correlation between the current color intensity of the first luminaire and a current dimming level of the first luminaire and a correlation between a previous color intensity of the first luminaire, a previous dimming level of the first luminaire, and a previous color temperature of the first luminaire,
• wherein the sensor subsystem is further configured to measure a current color intensity of the second luminaire, the server is configured to calculate a current color temperature of the second luminaire based at least in part on the current color intensity of the second luminaire, and the sensor subsystem is configured to communicate the current color intensity of the second luminaire to the server if the current color intensity of the second luminaire is outside of an expected color intensity range that is expected by the sensor subsystem, based at least in part on a second relationship determined by a comparison of a correlation between the current color intensity of the second luminaire and a current dimming level of the second luminaire and a correlation between a previous color intensity of the second luminaire, a previous dimming level of the second luminaire, and a previous color temperature of the second luminaire,
• wherein the server is configured to correlate the first relationship and the second relationship to an overall color temperature of an illuminated environment in which the first luminaire and the second luminaire are installed and determine whether at least one of the current dimming level of the first luminaire, a current dimming control protocol of the first luminaire, the current dimming level of the second luminaire, and a current dimming control protocol of the second luminaire must be adjusted to generate a particular overall color temperature, based at least in part on the correlation between the first relationship and the second relationship to the overall color temperature, and, if so, instruct the gateway to adjust the at least one of the current dimming level of the first luminaire, the current dimming control protocol of the first luminaire, the current dimming level of the second luminaire, and the current dimming control protocol of the second luminaire to achieve the particular overall color temperature, and the gateway is configured to adjust the at least one of the current dimming level of the first luminaire, the current dimming control protocol of the first luminaire, the current dimming level of the second luminaire, and the current dimming control protocol of the second luminaire according to the instructions from the server.
