Power Factor Correction Using Single Stage Discontinuous Conduction Mode Booster Rectifier

A single stage three-phase power factor correction circuit using a boost input current shaper has been described in both simulation and experimental work. To reduce the cost and avoid complexity the boost dc-to-dc converter is operated in discontinuous conduction mode using only one active switch...
