Abstract :
A SPICE compatible model of high intensity discharge (HID) lamps was developed and verified against experimental results. The model is based on fundamental physical-thermal principles and applies lamp parameters and universal constants. The model was found to faithfully emulate the static and dynamic electrical responses of a high pressure sodium (HPS) lamp under low frequency (50 Hz) and high frequency (30 kHz) excitation
