Abstract :
The Pulse-Burst Modulation Method used today for three-phase load control has two major drawbacks: 1) It can generate annoyingly high levels of dc currents. 2) In four-wire systems the neutral wire carries a large single pulse of current at the beginning and end of each switching period.
