Abstract :
In this paper, a three-phase ac-dc single-stage full-bridge converter is proposed. The operation of the converter is explained and analyzed. A procedure that can be used to design the converter is developed and demonstrated with an example. Experimental results obtained from a prototype are presented to confirm the feasibility of the converter.
