Abstract :
This paper describes the operation of an AC-DC converter employing second-harmonic-injected PWM. The boost converter operating on the rectified output uses a constant switching frequency PWM and a discontinuous current mode to reduce the total harmonic distortion in the input current. The implementation and the characteristics of the converter are presented
