Abstract
A novel power-factor controller for single-phase pulsewidth modulated recti fiers is proposed. The unity-power-factor controller for a sinusoidal input current is derived using the feedback linearization concept. Two active sw itches and two diodes are utilized for ac-to-dc power conversion. Experimen tal results obtained on a 4-kW prototype are discussed.
