Abstract:
An array of non-thermal plasma emitters is controlled to emit plasma based on application of an electric current at desired frequencies and a controlled power level. A power supply for an array controller includes a transformer that operates at the resonant frequency of the combined capacitance of the array and the cable connecting the array to the power supply. The power into the array is monitored by the controller and can be adjusted by the user. The controller monitors reflected power characteristics, such as harmonics of the alternating current, to determine initiation voltage of the plasma and/or resonant frequency plasma emitters.

Claim (Index 8):
A non-thermal plasma device comprising:\n an array comprising a plurality of plasma emitters each electrically ionizing air to produce the non-thermal plasma; a power supply electrically connectable to the array; and a controller in electronic communication with the array and the power supply, the controller:\n controlling the power supply to apply an alternating current to at least a first plasma emitter of the plurality of plasma emitters to cause the first plasma emitter to produce a first non-thermal plasma; \n while the power supply is applying the alternating current, measuring electrical energy within the device; and \n based on the measured electrical energy, controlling the power supply to set a constant plasma power level.
