Abstract
This paper presents the application of zero-current switching in a thr ee-phase rectification scheme with nearly sinusoidal line currents, Th e principle of third harmonic current circulation is used to reduce th e distortion in the line currents, Zero-current switching is accomplis hed with the use of only two switches. The operation of the circuit is verified experimentally. Comparisons with a PWM based rectifier and a six-switch rectifier in terms of component stresses and EMI filter co nsiderations are presented.
