The rapid consumption of fossil fuel and increased environmental damage caused by it have
given a strong impetus to the growth and development of fuel-efficient vehicles. Hybrid …

Three-phase AC-DC converters have been developed to a matured level with improved
power quality in terms of power-factor correction, reduced total harmonic distortion at input …

The industry's widespread application of variable speed drives in the recent years
accompanied by the electric utility's increasing use of capacitor banks have set the basis for …

The energy performance of various types of voltage-source and current-source converters is
examined. For fairness and completeness, efficiency is calculated for three major …

This paper presents a systematic evaluation approach of three-phase pulsewidth-modulated
(PWM) ac–ac converter topologies for high-density applications. All major components and …

Despite the rapid growth of self-commutated inverter technology, the well-known current
source inverter (CSI) has not achieved significant practical application so far. This raised the …

In this paper, a loss reduction and DC-link current minimization strategy for a high-power
current-source inverter (CSI) fed drive is proposed. The proposed strategy consists of an …

A space vector controlled channel state information (CSI) drive for multimotor applications is
investigated. The multimotor operation of the drive is achieved by integrating the proposed …

This paper introduces a mechanical sensorless control strategy to be used in variable speed
wind energy conversion systems based on permanent magnet synchronous generators. The …

This paper proposes a passivity-based control (PBC) strategy for single-phase pulsewidth-
modulated current-source inverters feeding a resistive load. In this strategy, it is required to …
