The electrodeless lamps using the induction discharge have a long lifetime and a high tolerance for the variable output conditions of a ballast since they don't need the electrodes. This paper proposed two novel dimming algorithms for the Electrodeless lamps and described the resonant inverter adopted the proposed methods. The proposed dimming algorithms are based on the conventional burst dimming method which is normally adopted for LCD back-lights. One of the proposed algorithms is a improved burst dimming method, which controls the illumination by duty ratio of $5\%$ and its control circuit is formed by simple digital logics. The other algorithm is a burst PWM average duty ratio control method, which controls the illumination by duty ratio of $1\%$ and its control circuit is formed by more complex digital logics than the first method. To verify the validity of the proposed dimming methods, a prototype experimental setup for 100W Electrodeless lamps is carried out and its results are presented in this paper.

Driving the electrodeless fluorescent lamp, the high ac voltage with high frequency is required. The linear power amplifier has been widely used as a driving circuit of electrodeless fluorescent lamp. However, the low efficiency of the power amplifier causes the driving circuit to be replaced by a PWM switching inverter. In order to use a PWM switching inverter as the driving circuit to be replaced by a PWM switching inverter. In order to use a PWM switching inverter as the driving circuit of an electrodeless fluorescent lamp, the high switching frequency is required. But due to the switching loss at switches of the inverter, the limitation of high switching frequency appears in the inverter. One solution to this limitation is to reduce the switching loss by using the zero voltage switching technique. In this paper, zero voltage switching resonant inverter for driving an electrodeless fluorescent lamp is discussed. The results of analysis about the inverter are presented and the equations for design are established. And the validity of the analyzed results are verified through the experiment.

Characteristics of electrodeless lamp as a load of the ballast are different compared to normal fluorescent lamp because the lame includes an inductance due to coupling magnetics for inductive discharging process. This increased parameter makes the development of self-oscillation type ballast more complex and time consuming. Practical simulation method for an easy design of self-oscillation type ballast especially for Endura lamp, is presented by using a model and various analysis of simulation. Results of experiment are given for a verification of proposed method.

유도결합형 플라즈마를 이용하는 무전극 형광램프는 소프트 페라이트를 이용하여 방전을 유도하며, 페라이트의 주파수나 온도 특성이 안정하면, 공심 솔레노이드코일을 사용하였을 때보다 램프저력이 더 효율적이 된다. 페라이트의 형상과 코일의 권선수는 코일의 임피던스, 인덕턴스, Q-factor에 직접적으로 영향을 주며, 감은 위치에 변화에 의해서도 그 값들이 변할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 전구형 무전극 형광램프의 방전에 중요한 역할을 하는 안테나에 대한 실험 결과로서 Mn-Zn 페라이트를 이용한 솔레노이드 코일에 주파수와 코일의 권선수를 변화시켜 코일의 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 임피던스 특성은 주파수가 증가함에 따라 증가하였으며, 코일의 권선수가 14회일 때, 기존 램프의 안테나와 비슷한 324[$\Omega$]을 나타내었으나, Q-factor는 코일의 권선수가 증가할 수 록 감소하였으며, 기존 램프의 안테나와 많은 차이를 나타내었다.

수명이 길고, 효율이 좋은 광원 개발은 무엇보다 중요하다. 그러나 광원의 상용화, 광원의 모든 장점을 효과적으로 발휘할 수 있도록 하는 조명기구의 개발 또한 광원개발 만큼 중요한 부분을 차지한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 현재 개발 중에 있는 무전극램프(전구형, 환형)의 다양한 적용범위 대한 조명기구의 반사갓 설계를 다룬다.
