Abstract
A lighting system includes an LED controller, and an LED array which includes first and second LED sub-arrays, wherein the LED array is operatively coupled to the LED controller. The lighting system includes an antenna in communication with the LED controller. First and second wavelength spectrums are provided by the first and second LED sub-arrays, respectively, and are adjustable in response to adjusting an input signal provided to the antenna.
