Standard PWM current source inverters (CSIs) usually operate at fixed modulation index. The proposed modified current source inverter (MCSI) can operate with most pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques and with a variable modulation index, since the DC link inductor current freewheels on itself and not through the CSI. The use of variable modulation index control results in faster response times with no penalty on input power factor as compared to other variable modulation index schemes. This paper confirms this by investigating the input characteristics of the MCSI as seen from the AC mains. The quality of the input AC line currents is examined, and a design procedure for the input filters is given. Power factor and efficiency are discussed. Results are compared to those of other current source inverter topologies. Experimental results obtained from a 5 kVA converter confirm the theoretical considerations. > |
