Analysis of a new power electronics interface with approximately sinusoidal 3-phase utility currents and a regulated DC output

A three phase rectification scheme that draws line currents with reduced distortion and provides a regulated DC output voltage is analyzed. The scheme employs two boost DC-DC converters to modulate the DC link currents. The modulation current is injected into the AC side through an impedance network consisting of series tuned L-C branches. The theoretical analysis and the basic simulation results, which can be used to carry out the design of a system based on this approach, are presented.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
