Abstract
In this paper, a new control method based on pulse width modulation (PWM) technique is presented for direct three-phase to single-phase converters. This control method can be easily developed to direct three-phase to n-phase converters based on the exact principle of operation. The results of the proposed control method have been presented for two conventional topologies of direct three-phase to single-phase converters with four and six power switches. The suggested control method does not depend on the balanced or unbalanced input voltages. In balanced operation, the maximum output/input voltage transfer ratios are 0.5 and 1.5 for converters with four and six power switches, respectively. Also, the proposed method has no restrictions in frequency transformation. Another advantage of the proposed control method in comparison with the conventional control methods is dv/ dt reduction in switches and loads. The operation and performance of the proposed control method has been verified by the simulation and experimental results.
