  • Abstract
    The advent of high-power, high-frequency, solid-state switches with fast gate turn-off capabilities suggests that pulse-width-modulated (PWM) techniques can soon be introduced into HVDC (high-voltage direct-current) applications. A boost-type PWM converter with voltage angle lock control that is tailored to the utility environment is described. Experimental test results for 1 kVA models show that the advantages are substantial
