摘要:
The invention describes a method of driving a discharge lamp (1), wherein a blackening value (N) is determined, which blackening value (N) represents a level of blackening of the interior of the lamp (1), and a recovery parameter (2, T) is calculate based on the blackening value (N). When the lamp power is increased above the saturation power level, the lamp (1) is driven according to the recovery parameter (2, T) for the duration of a specific recovery time. The invention further describes a driving arrangement (70, 70′), and a projector system (10) comprising a high-pressure discharge lamp (1) and such a driving arrangement (70, 70′).

摘要:
A projection system and a method for operating a discharge lamp are described. The protection system comprises a discharge lamp 12 and driving electronics 14. The color wheel 18 serves as color filter for filtering light 16 emitted from lamp 12 to generate a light sequence 20 with different colors in sequential color time periods 22, 22a. In between color time periods 22, 22a, spoke time periods 24, 24a are arranged. The driving electronics provide a lamp current I with superimposed first current pulses, which are generated in at least one of the color time periods 22, 22a. In order to allow greater flexibility and be able to achieve stable arc operation and constant color point over lamp lifetime, the driving electronics 14 further provide second current pulses superimposed on the lamp current. The second current pulses are generated during at least one of the spoke time periods 24, 24a.
摘要:
A method for driving a high-pressure gas discharge lamp of a projector system, which is suitable to produce and to supply to a light valve device during a projection interval (4) a light beam of a basic color which is selected from several basic colors (G, R, B). The lamp is driven by a lamp current. During said projection interval light valves of the light valve device are controlled in a pulse width modulation manner to have each valve provide a respective wanted light integral over said projection interval. During at least one of a number of successive projection intervals associated with one basic color a magnitude of the lamp current is temporarily reduced for at least a time that all light valves can be controlled for said one basic color.

The invention describes a method of driving a discharge lamp (1) in a projection system (10), wherein, in a feed-forward control process, system status data (SDL, SDF, SDV) comprising static information pertaining to the design of the system and/or dynamic information pertaining to the projection system and/or dynamic information pertaining to the lamp operation are obtained. Based on the system status data (SDL, SDF, SDV), a momentary target light waveshape (LWT, LWT′) required by the projection system (10) and a waveshape correcting function are determined. Subsequently, the actual current (I) of the discharge lamp (1) is controlled regulated according to a momentary required waveshape (RW) which is determined based on the target light waveshape (LWT, LWT′) and the waveshape correcting function. Moreover the invention describes an appropriate driving unit (11) for driving a discharge lamp (1) and a projection system (10), comprising such a driving unit (11).

The invention describes a method of shutting down a high pressure discharge lamp (1) in which a pair of electrodes (2) are disposed in an arc tube (3). This method comprises the steps of reducing the lamp power (PA) to a reduced operation level that enables the maintenance of an arc discharge between the electrodes (2) in a transition state from a lighting state to an extinguished state; driving the lamp (1) at the reduced operation level such that that the lamp (1) cools down; monitoring the lamp voltage (U) during this lamp power reduction process and during driving of the lamp (1) at the reduced operation level with regard to a defined discharge process stability criteria and increasing the lamp power (PA) if the discharge process stability criterion is not satisfied; completely shutting down the lamp power (PA) after sufficient duration to allow the lamp (1) to cool down to a state in which the gas pressure is such that the lamp (1) could be reignited shortly after being extinguished. Moreover the invention describes an appropriate driving unit (7) for driving a high pressure discharge lamp (1) and an image rendering system (40), particularly a projector system, comprising such a driving unit (4).

摘要:
A method for operating a projection system (1) is described, wherein a brightness level (B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6) in an image (IM) is represented by the total length of a number of light switch-on phases within a particular image cycle (VT). A high pressure discharge lamp (2) of the projection system (1) is operated via a lamp driver with an essentially square-wave alternating current (IL) SO that an overshoot sequence (0), which occurs in the alternating current (IL) after a current zero crossing during operation of the high pressure discharge lamp (2), has a frequency so high that for each possible brightness level at least one full period (P) of the overshoot sequence (0) lies essentially within a light switch-on or switch-off phase (ts) following the zero crossing. A projection system (1) and a lamp driver (10) for a high pressure discharge lamp (2) in such a projection system (1) are also described.
