Electrodeless discharge lamp containing push-pull class e amplifier and bifilar coil

摘要

A push-pull Class E amplifier is used to provide an efficient transfer of power to the induction coil in an electrodeless discharge lamp and to reduce the amount of radio frequency interference emitted by the lamp into the surrounding environment. A bifilar or other type of multifilar induction coil, preferably center-tapped, is used to further reduce the radio frequency interference problem.
