Abstract:A capacitor input type rectifier is spreading widely by reason that its circuit configuration is simple and low cost. However, the rectifier includes many harmonics in an input current, and an input power factor is low. Hence, the input current harmonics cause voltage waveform distortion of an input power source, and the low power factor causes efficiency decline.Many sinusoidal rectifiers have been proposed to solve these problems. However, most of them have any complicated control such as a pulse width modul… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
