Title :
Multilevel three-phase rectifier with sinusoidal input currents
Abstract :
A multilevel three-phase PWM rectifier absorbing sinusoidal and in phase mains currents is proposed in this paper. The article deals with this new structure, its control and the way to balance the voltage of the output capacitors in order to optimize its characteristics without disturbing the current waveform
