Experimental tests performed on a three-phase bipolartransistor controlled-current PWM power modulator show that it can operate with near-sinusoidal currents at 60 Hz with a 360-degree power angle range. Because of its capability to operate with leading power factor and good waveform, the PWM converter is a promising alternative to the thyristor Graetz bridge. A theoretical method based on the concept of ``local average'' is presented.
