SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING CONSTANT LOADING IN AC POWER APPLICATIONS

摘要

A system and method for providing constant loading in AC power applications wherein at least one turn-on point (7) of at least one half cycle of a modulating sine wave (2) is determined; at least one turn-off point (8) of said at least one half cycle of a modulating sine wave (2) is determined; and at least one slice (5) located between said at least one turn-on point (7) and said at least one turn-off point (8) is removed. The slices (5) may be removed by utilizing triode alternating current switches, silicone controlled rectifiers, insulated gate bipolar transistors or field effect transistors.
