Description
Summary:Three-phase current source rectifier (CSR) is a promising solution for power supply systems as the buck-type power factor correction converter. By converter paralleling, high power rating and system redundancy can be achieved. However, asymmetrical distribution of load current among converter modules may occur, which can increase power loss or even damage devices. This paper presents the DC-link current control scheme for paralleled current source rectifiers to balance the output currents. Using a master-slave control, the balanced output current distribution and system redundancy are implemented. By correcting zero state duration based on modulation scheme, the circulating current is suppressed without introducing additional power losses, and both positive and negative DC-link currents are balanced.
