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 …

New regulations impose more stringent limits on current harmonics injected by power
converters that are achieved with pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) rectifiers. In addition …

This paper extends the impedance-source (Z-source) inverters concept to the transformer-
based Z-source (trans-Z-source) inverters. The original Z-source inverter (ZSI) employs an …

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 …

High efficiency and operating life of grid feeding solar photovoltaic (PV) inverters are
demanded. Due to reduced dc-link capacitor requirement, current source inverter (CSI) …

Common-mode voltages (CMVs) can lead to premature failure of the motor insulation
system in medium-voltage current-source-fed drives. By analyzing the CMV values at all …

Pulsewidth modulated (PWM) current-source rectifiers (CSR), among other alternatives, offer
marked improvements over thyristor line-commutated rectifiers as a source of variable DC …

This paper analyzes the performance of a grid-tied, wide power range, transformerless,
modified three-phase current-source inverter (CSI), named CSI7. The CSI7 topology is here …

Space vector pulsewidth modulation (PWM) schemes for the active front end of a high-power
drive normally produce low-order and suborder harmonics due to the low switching …

Voltage regulation schemes for current-source inverters (CSIs) commonly use a simple
proportional-integral (PI) stationary frame controller, but this approach is known to suffer …
