Patent ID: 10206257

Abstract:
A stepless dimming control method of a lighting system is applicable to the situations where a light source for a lighting terminal is a fluorescent lamp and/or an LED lamp. A pulsating voltage regulating device is connected in series with a main power supply circuit of a terminal light source. A dimming control unit is configured for a fluorescent lamp electronic ballast/LED driving unit. The specific method includes: at first, fluctuating a supply voltage value at an input end of the electronic ballast/LED driving unit for a short time by the pulsating voltage regulating device, and then regulating, by the dimming control unit, an output frequency of the electronic ballast and an output current of the LED driving unit according to fluctuation parameters and also in combination with preset system settings, so as to realize dimming. The method can realize remote and stepless dimming, is applicable to the terminal light sources of both fluorescent lamps and LED lamps, has good interference resistance and relatively low system construction/improvement costs, and is extremely suitable for newly-built lighting systems and for use in upgrading existing lighting systems.
