    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for operating a resonant power converter. The resonant power converter has a primary stage and a secondary stage, at least one of which is actively operated and includes a half-bridge or full-bridge inverter having a pull-up switching device, coupled in parallel with a pull-up antiparallel diode and a pull-down switching device, coupled in parallel with a pull-down antiparallel diode, comprising the steps of alternately turning-off and turning on the pull-up and pull-down switching devices according to a periodic switching scheme, wherein after turning-off one of the switching devices the complementary switching device is respectively turned on after a delay time; and initiating an error handling, if after turning-off of one of the switching devices a non-conductance state of the antiparallel diode of the complementary switching device has been determined.

    摘要: An active noise reduction system (2) comprising an electroacoustic plasma transducer (5) for mounting in an installation structure and an acoustic sensing system (11). The electroacoustic plasma transducer comprises a plasma electrode arrangement (6) including a collector electrode (8) and a corona electrode (9), and a control system (7) connected to the plasma electrode arrangement for supplying power to the plasma electrode arrangement. The control system comprises a controller (12), and a amplification circuit (13). The acoustic sensing system is connected to the control system providing a measurement signal of an environmental sound to control the output of the electroacoustic transducer for reducing noise. The control system comprises a filter implementing a control transfer function θ(ω) based on a model of the electroacoustic plasma transducer.
