Motor drive systems based on diode-rectifier are utilised in many industrial and commercial applications due to their cost-effectiveness simple topology. However, these diode rectifier-based can be affected by power quality harmonics distribution networks. Thus, this paper investigates the impact of grid voltage operation converters with three-phase rectifier using mathematical formulation curr...

Oxide material can make transparent devices with transparent electrodes. We developed a transparent oscillator and rectifier circuits with oxide TFTs. The source/drain and gate electrodes were made by indium thin oxide (ITO), and active layer made by transparent material of IGZO (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide) on a glass substrate. The RC oscillator was composed of bootstrapped inverters, and 813 k...

The emergence of deforming regimes is related to the proliferation of nonlinear electrical receivers. The higher harmonics of drawn currents from power systems can be evaluated using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). Unlike Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), which provides only amplitude-frequency information but looses time information, DWT analyses the signal in a time-frequency domain using windo...

A versatile precision rectifier based on a current conveyor and current mirrors is presented. The proposed circuit performs positive half-wave, negative half-wave, positive full-wave, and negative full-wave rectification into a single circuit. The current-mode technique has been employed to provide the high-precision capability of the circuit. The circuit configuration is very suitable for inte...

This paper presents a rectifier for passive UHF RFID tags with high power conversion efficiency (PCE) over a wide incident power range under the influence of mismatch between tag antenna and chip, which benefits read and write sensitivities simultaneously. Fabricated with 0.13 μm CMOS technology, the RF frontend adopting this rectifier achieves PCE higher than 25% with incident power from −19.2...

33 ABSTRACT This paper presents a comparative evaluation of five topologies of single-phase AC-DC boost converters having power factor correction (PFC). These converter topologies are evaluated on the basis of performance and their salient features are discussed to analyze their applicability. The techniques not only help to develop a deeper understanding of these converters but also to evaluat...

The rapid development of electric vehicle ultra-fast battery chargers is increasingly demanding higher efficiency and power density. In particular, a proper control the grid-connected active front–end can ensure minimum passive component size (i.e., limiting design oversizing) reduce overall converter losses. Moreover, fast dynamics strong disturbance rejection capability are often required by ...

This paper describes the integration of power electronic and energy storage applications in distribution substations. Auxiliary circuits must provide motor-driven power switches, protection relays and telecontrol systems with constant power supply, thus minimising power outages and their negative effects on consumers. Requirements on the apparatus are proportional to the distributed voltage lev...

This paper presents a Z-source inverter which has been proposed as an alternative power conversion concept for adjustable speed AC drives. It is having both voltages buck and boost capabilities as they allow inverters to be operated in the shoot through state. It utilizes an exclusive Z-source network (LC component) to DC-link in between main inverter circuit and the DC source (rectifier). By c...

The harmonic currents generated by the single-phase rectifier are well known. As the levels of these currents become larger, the use of power conditioners such as shunt active filters to lower the levels is becoming more attractive. In order to analyze the interaction between the condition, ac system, and rectifier it is necessary to have an accurate model of the rectifier. This paper describes...
