A controlled lighting system includes an encoding device and a lamp. The encoding device includes a rectifier for rectifying an AC voltage input to result in a rectified signal, and an encoder for generating an encoded signal from the rectified signal and display data. The encoded signal has consecutive signal regions with a waveform of a positive half-cycle of an AC sinusoidal wave or a low potential. The lamp includes a LED unit and a decoding device. The decoding device includes a direct current converter for extracting a direct current voltage from the encoded signal, a detecting circuit for extracting a wave signal from the encoded signal, a processor for generating decoded data related to a light-emitting operation according to the wave signal, and a driver for driving the LED unit according to the direct current voltage from the direct current converter and the decoded data from the processor.

A wideband omnidirectional antenna for a plug and play device includes a system ground plane, a radiating element, a feeding element. The radiating element is installed above an edge of the system ground plane and comprises a first sub-radiating element and a second sub-radiating element. The first sub-radiating element is parallel to the system ground plane. The second sub-radiating element is electronically connected to an edge of the first sub-radiating element in a foldable manner. The second sub-radiating element is approximately perpendicular to the first sub-radiating element and extends in an upright direction above the system ground plane when in use condition, and is approximately parallel to the first sub-radiating element and extends horizontally above the system ground plane when not in use condition. The feeding element is electronically connected to a signal source and is used for transmitting signals outputted from the signal source to the radiating element.
