Abstract
A distributed fiber lighting system with double-ended light sources is simulated numerically by using the software Matlab 7.0. The key factors affecting the lighting power and uniformity of the distributed fiber lighting system, such as light leakage rate, the distance of adjacent fiber loops and the number of the fiber loops are analyzed. The simulation results show that, the high lighting power and good uniformity are conflictive objects. The compromising effect is obtained on the condition that the number of fiber loops is 20, light leakage rate is 4.0% and the adjacent distance is 5 meters.
