The design of duty-cycle modulated three-phase boost rectifiers

Duty-cycle modulation of single-switch three-phase boost rectifiers has been demonstrated to be an effective way of reducing their input current harmonics. But a converter design methodology for such control approach is not available yet. This paper intends to fulfill this lack, presenting a design approach for this operation mode. Design equations are provided for some operation conditions, and experimental results validate the approach.
