Abstract
This paper presents a study on the dimming control of electrodeless fluorescent lamp. To do this the equivalent model of electrodeless fluorescent lamp (ENDURA 100w Type) was first established. The resulted model of the lamp was applied to the two kinds of dimming control method, one is the variable switching frequency method and the other is the variable dc link voltage method. And the comparison results of the dimming characteristics between the two methods was presented. Theoretical predictions were verified by the experimental results on the ENDURA 100W type electrodeless fluorescent lame.
