Nowadays, there is a very high number of electronic devices with different ranges of power. Desktop peripherals and cellphones are an example of widely used low power devices. Contactless power transfer is useful to supply or recharge these devices without ...
The principle achievement of this contribution is to develop and to describe a rapid DC component elimination strategy for AC currents in the frequency converter, simply by selecting transient period. To avoid DC component on the line current, it’s known t ...
Medium voltage high-power applications are usually realized using high voltage semiconductors (3.3 kV and above) operated in the hard switching mode with low switching frequencies (several hundreds of hertz). However, for high-power dc–dc converters employ ...
The grid-connected modular multilevel converter (MMC) is very likely to operate under asymmetric grid conditions. Such a converter features several unique characteristics, whichmake its analysis different from other types of power converters in similar cas ...

In this paper, a high output voltage power converter working at variable input DC-link voltage is presented. The variable DC link voltage opens to very interesting solution at system level. However, those solutions will be the subject of futures papers. On ...
Marine high-power on-board electrical systems are predominantly utilizing three-phase medium voltage alternating current (MVAC) distribution. Depending on the size and purpose of the ship, on-board electrical systems provide supply to loads in excess of 60 ...
An universal remote powering and communication system is presented for the implantable medical devices. The system be interfaced with different sensors or actuators. A mobile external unit controls the operation of the implantable chip and reads the sensor ...
Various high power applications require power converters with large voltage step ratios, easily achieved by inclusion of a single or multiple transformers, which provide galvanic isolation at the same time. This paper presents, in a systematic manner, the ...
Generalized State Space Average Modeling (GSSAM), of switching converters, offers an opportunity to improve fidelity of a model by inclusion of different harmonic components. Yet, the inclusion of each frequency component contributes to an increase in the ...
A non-isolated DC-DC converter is presented, based on the current diverter principle. The converter is foreseen for large power electronic applications where normally the converters are fed from DC supplies at a typical voltage level of around one or two k ...
