Abstract :
A novel soft-switched current-source inverter for single-phase utility interfaces is presented. To provide the soft-switching capability under the pulsewidth modulation for a single-phase line-commutated thyristor inverter, an auxiliary resonant switch to bypass the current on the DC side is connected across the DC input of a thyristor inverter
