Investigation of a new Matlab/Simulink/Sim-Power-Systems toolbox for a PWM AC-to-DC converter applied in active line conditioning

In this paper it will be presented through simulations, the verification and validation of a previously built Matlab/Simulink/Sim-Power-Systems toolbox for a PWM AC-to-DC converter provided with a new line conditioning control strategy, more complex and useful than the actually applied unity power factor rectifier control method. It will be studied the performances of this converter toolbox by applying different conditioning signals when connected alone directly to mains.
