Solar Radiation Prediction Methods Applied to Improve Greenhouse Climate ControlPublished by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, St. Joseph, Michigan www.asabe.org Citation: Pp. 154-160 in Proceedings of the World Congress of Computers in Agriculture and Natural Resources (13-15, March 2002, Iguacu Falls, Brazil) 701P0301.(doi:10.13031/2013.8324)Authors: J.P. Coelho, J.Boaventura Cunha and P.B. de Moura Oliveira Keywords: Time Series Prediction, Horticulture, Artificial Neural Networks, Linear Regression In this paper, deterministic and Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) based techniques are applied to generate solar radiation forecasts with the purpose of being incorporated within a greenhouse predictive control strategy. These predictions are essential to estimate heat load fluctuations in the greenhouse caused by high frequency solar radiation changes, and so to improve ventilation and heating computation requirements for the greenhouse.
