Abstract :
A line-voltage-sensorless control for three-phase pulse-width-modulated (PWM) synchronous rectifiers is presented. A line synchronisation and unity power factor control are described. Indirect synchronisation without sensing the line voltage allows a standard vector-controlled inverter to be used as a synchronous rectifier without requiring any additional hardware. Furthermore, the line synchronisation can be operated properly under line-voltage distortion or notching and line-frequency variation. It is shown via experimental results that the proposed controller gives good performance for the synchronous rectifier
