Six-Leg Single-Phase to Three-Phase AC-DC-AC Converter Using High-Frequency Link

This article investigates the use of a high-frequency link in a topology with two three-leg series-connected single-phase to three-phase ac-dc-ac converters. The paper discusses the system model, pulse width modulation (PWM) technique, control system, and high-frequency link design. The studied topology is compared with the conventional one regarding the operating point specification, and the control system's complexity, among other characteristics. Simulation and experimental results are provided for validation and illustration of converter operations.
