Title: Systems and methods for optically generated trigger multiplication
Inventor: CHILDERS BROOKS A
IPC: H04B10/08
Filed: 2011-01-27
Abstract: Systems and methods for providing trigger signals in an optical interrogator, wherein multiple triggers are generated within each period of a varying reference signal, and wherein the triggers are evenly spaced according to the wavenumber of the reference signal. In one embodiment, an optical frequency domain reflectometry system provides a laser beam to a reference interferometer to produce a reference signal. This signal is passed through a 4x4 optical coupler which splits the signal Into a first signal and a second signal that is 90 degrees out of phase with the first signal. These signals are converted to electrical signals, and a trigger unit generates triggers at points at which the two electrical signals have zero-crossings, and at which the magnitudes of the signals are equal. The resulting triggers remain evenly spaced within the period of the reference signals, even when the period is changed.

Patent AU-2011278081-A1 (AU)
Title: A magnetron powered lamp
Inventor: KJELL LIDSTROM
IPC: H01J65/04
Filed: 2011-07-12
Abstract: To the common point C of two transistors of a magnetron, switched converter power circuit is connected a coupling capacitor C11 which provides input to a starter circuit (24). A transistor switch (25) is in series with the capacitor C11 and a diode D1. When the switch is off no current flows in D11. When the switch is made, D11 conducts during alternate halves of cycles present at C. A second diode D12 also conducts and allows current to pass through discharge capacitor C12. This progressively charges until the voltage across it reaches the breakdown voltage of a gas discharge tube GTD. Whereupon the capacitor discharges through the primary winding of transformer TR2. The secondary winding has many more turns and a starter voltage is induced in the starter electrode (11). This is isolated from the Faraday cage (4) and terminates adjacent the crucible, close to the void (2). Every time the discharge capacitor discharges, the void of a microwave plasma light source is pulsed. The magnetron is being driven - the starter being able to operate only as a result of the converter operating. Once a plasma in the void establishes, this is detected by a photodiode (12) adjacent the starter electrode (11). Presence of plasma is signalled to the microprocessor which opens the transistor switch (25).
