Abstract

Due to stringent emission and fuel consumption requirements, several innovative ignition systems have been proposed to address the shortcomings of current spark ignition systems. Two of the most promising candidates are high-energy spark ignition systems and corona ignition systems. However, both these systems have some fundamental drawbacks. Spark ignition systems are very mature and relatively inexpensive, but the performance of these systems is limited by the small electrode gap, which results in a small ignition volume. Corona systems, on the other hand, have a much larger ignition volume, but have been slow to enter the market due to their complexity and cost.
