Air-conditioning system and air-conditioning method

摘要

An air-conditioning system comprises portable devices including measurement units that measure temperature or humidity. In addition, the air-conditioning system comprises a transmitter mounted in indoor equipment that transmits light or electromagnetic waves to the portable devices, and a receiver mounted in the indoor equipment that receives detected intensity information expressing the intensity of the light or the electromagnetic waves detected by the portable devices. Furthermore, the air-conditioning system comprises a detector that detects the distance from the indoor equipment to the portable devices based on the detected intensity expressed by the detected intensity information, and a controller that controls the air-blowing state of the indoor equipment based on the detected distances and the measured temperature or humidity. Thus, the temperature or the humidity at a specified location can be adjusted more accurately.

主权项

1. An air-conditioning system, comprising:
a transmitter that is mounted in indoor equipment and that transmits light or electromagnetic waves to a device including a measurement unit that measures temperature or humidity; a converter that converts a transmission direction of the light or electromagnetic waves from the transmitter mounted in the indoor equipment into plural directions; a receiver that is mounted in the indoor equipment and that receives detected intensity information that expresses the detected intensity of the transmitted light or the electromagnetic waves detected by the device; a detector that detects the distance from the indoor equipment to the device and the direction from the indoor equipment to the device based on the plural converted transmission directions and the detected intensities of the light or the electromagnetic waves transmitted in the plural directions respectively, detected by the device, and expressed by the received detected intensity information; and a controller that controls the air-blowing state of the indoor equipment based on the detected direction and distance and the measured temperature or humidity.
