Abstract

Electrodeless high intensity discharge (HID) lamps have the promise of higher reliability and higher efficiency than traditional electroded high intensity discharge lamps. However, most electrodelessHIDs operate in the frequency range of around 400 MHz or higher resulting in expensive, inefficient RF drivers that reduce the overall efficacy of the lamp. Operating the lamp at lower frequencies results in a substantial increase in the physical dimensions of the resonators used in the traditional electrodeless HIDs. In this invention a novel wave-launcher technology is used to allow the lamp housing's operating frequency to be independent of the physical dimensions of the lamp housing. This provides an avenue to increase the conversion efficiency of the RF driver and the efficacy of the lampsystem.

Description

[0001] Statement Regarding Invention Rights Under Federally Sponsored Research or Development Programs [0002] Not applicable [0003] Refer to the Sequence Listing, Table, or Computer Program Listing Appendices filed on CD-ROM [0004] Not applicable Background technique [0005] The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for generating light with an electrodeless high intensity discharge (HID) lamp. More specifically, the present invention provides a high intensity discharge lamp and associated method driven by a radio frequency source without the use of electrodes within a gas-filled vessel (bulb). By way of example only, such electrodeless high intensity discharge lamps can be used in a variety of applications such as parking lots, street lighting, warehouses, stadiums, security, ports and seaports, large and small buildings, vehicle headlights, billboards Lighting, building facade lighting, airports, bridges, agricultural and horticultural lighting, arch...
