Current source dc-dc and dc-ac converters with continuous energy flow
This work considers current sourced power electronic converters. The thesis classifies and presents several new single-phase and three-phase differential-mode current source inverters that evolve from the basic dc-dc converter topologies. The switched, large-signal, and small-signal models of these …
