Operating heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems using occupancy sensing systems

Abstract:

Operating HVAC systems using occupancy sensing systems is described herein. One device includes instructions to receive a mapping describing relationships between a space of a plurality of spaces of a building, a plurality of fixtures of an occupancy sensing system installed in the space, and an upstream HVAC device associated with the building, wherein the upstream HVAC device serves a zone including the space, receive occupancy data determined by the fixture over a time period, filter the occupancy data to determine occupancy information associated with the fixture over the time period, determine an occupancy model associated with the space based on the occupancy information associated with the fixtures, and modify an operation of the upstream HVAC device based on the mapping and the occupancy model.
