Experimental verification of the efficiency/power-density (η-ρ) Pareto Front of single-phase double-boost and TCM PFC rectifier systems

Over the last decades, the converter systems performance has been substantially improved but the endeavor for highest possible performance, especially with respect to power density, efficiency, and costs remains the most important driver of present and future developments and research. In latest publications, comprehensive analytical models have been applied in optimization procedures to calculate the design parameters of single-phase AC-DC converter systems resulting in the highest performance concerning multiple objectives.
