Abstract: The present High Intensity Discharge electronic lamp ballast uses a "set of controls" that can be performed by controlling energy delivery by the "line side converter" to the "lamp side inverter". This set of controls comprises: 1) open circuit voltage control, 2) breakdown voltage amplitude control, 3) glow-to-arc transition current control, 4) "initial arc development"  current control, 5) "arc stabilization" current control, 6) lamp power control, 7) lamp dimming, 8) "lamp rectification" current control, and 9) short circuit and lamp fault protections. One of the primary advantages of this "line side converter" energy delivery control method is that it doesn't need to vary the lamp operating frequency to achieve the above-noted controls.

Abstract: A system is provided for transmitting information through a speech codec (inband) such as found in a wireless communication network. A modulator transforms the data into a spectrally noise-like signal based on the mapping of a shaped pulse to predetermined positions within a modulation frame, and the signal is efficiently encoded by a speech codec. A  synchronization sequence provides modulation frame timing at the receiver and is detected based on analysis of a correlation peak pattern.  A request/response protocol provides reliable transfer of data using message redundancy, retransmission, and/or robust modulation modes dependent on the communication channel conditions.
