Abstract
A new three-phase single-stage rectifier is proposed in this paper. The outstanding features of the proposed rectifier are that it can produce input currents that do not have deadband regions and an output current that can be continuous when the converter is operating from maximum load to at least half of the load. In this paper, the operation of the new converter is explained, its features and design are discussed in results, and its operation is confirmed with experimental results obtained from a prototype.
