Abstract :
This paper presents a novel AC uninterruptible-power-system (UPS) scheme with high power factor, which offers excellent characteristics such as sinusoidal input current, sinusoidal output voltage, fast regulation of the AC mains, galvanic isolation, and fast transient response. The proposed converter includes the offline - online concept, which avoids the continuous charging and discharging of the battery as it occurs in a typical online UPS. Analysis and design considerations, as well as simulation and experimental results, are given in this paper.
