Title: Voltage balancing among series connected IGBT switching devices
Inventor: PALMER PATRICK
IPC: H02M1/08
Filed: 2011-03-07
Abstract: This invention generally relates to voltage balancing among series-connected power switching devices comprising one or more insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), and more particularly to a method controlling sharing of voltage among series-connected power switching devices, where at least one of the devices is an insulated gate bipolar transistor. The method comprises controlling the IGBT dependent on a reference signal and collector or emitter voltage of the IGBT such that during an off period of the IGBT the reference signal limits an absolute value of collector-emitter voltage of the IGBT to be within a range. While limited, the reference signal is temporarily changed from an initial value to a temporary clamp value to reduce the range, when each of the devices is in a substantially non-conducting state.

Title: System and method for ignition and operation of a high intensity discharge lamp
Inventor: RAPSON DOV
IPC: H01J61/54
Filed: 2011-05-17
Abstract: A method for ignition of a ceramic high intensity discharge (HID) lamp (Fig. 2, 14). The ceramic HID lamp (14) includes an are chamber (26) and two capillaries (25) each connected to the arc chamber (26) at respective proximal ends of the capillaries (25). Two electrodes (20) are each sealed within the capillaries (25) by respective seals (22) near the distal ends of the capillaries (25). The electrodes (20) extend from the seals (22) through respective bores (24) in the capillaries (25) and protrude into the arc chamber (26) at the proximal ends of the capillaries (25). The method includes applying to the electrodes (20) multiple pre-ignition voltage pulses PIP of sufficiently short duration to avoid igniting the HID lamp (14). The pre-ignition voltage pulses PIP heat the electrodes (20) prior to ignition to avoid arcing in the bores (24) of the capillaries (25) surrounding the electrodes (20). The ignition circuit (Fig. 1, 18) is configured subsequent to application of the pre-ignition voltage pulses PIP to apply an ignition pulse IP to ignite the HID lamp. Subsequent to the ignition, the HID lamp (14) is operated with an operating voltage (Fig. 4a, 40) which alternates between high frequency and low frequency waveforms. Using high and low frequency waveforms helps avoid acoustic resonance and flickering in the lamp.

Title: Calculating a branch metric for received scrambled code bits
Inventor: NIEMINEN ESKO JUHANI
IPC: H03M13/39
Filed: 2012-04-11
Abstract: A chunk of branch metric computation bits (290A,290B) is generated comprising bits that correspond to transition bits of a possible chunk of transition bits that could have been generated by a state transition of a convolutional encoder of a transmitter. The computation bits (290A,290B) are scrambled (280A,280B;310A,310B). A branch metric for the received soft scrambled code bits (270A,270B) is calculated as a function of the scrambled bits (300A,300B) of the computation bits and the received code bits (270A,270B). The branch metric is indicative of the probability that the received code bits (270A,270B) was originally generated by the convolutional encoder as the chunk of transition bits corresponding to the generated computation bits (290A,290B). The generated computation bits are scrambled instead of descrambling the received soft scrambled bits, which requires more processing and hence higher power consumption.
