“…In recent years, a topology is getting more attention in high power front-end applications due to its attractive inherent characteristics such as high power factor, low switch count, and reduced switch voltage stresses [19,20,37]. This topology recognised as vienna rectifier, exists in the market since 1992 [38] and is in use largely in industries such as welding power supplies, battery chargers for telecommunication, electric vehicles, wind turbines, and aviation systems [21,33,39,40,[41][42][43][44][45]. The losses associated with high switching frequency have resulted to prohibit its use on large-scale as compare to its counterparts.…”
