Novel Nine-Switch PWM Rectifier-

Inverter Topology
For Three-Phase UPS Applications
Abstract:
A novel three-phase PWM rectifier-inverter topology
(Fig. 2) for UPS applications is proposed in this paper. The
topology uses only nine IGBT devices for AC/AC
conversion through a quasi d.c. link circuit. This converter
topology features sinusoidal inputs and outputs, unity
input power factor, and more importantly, low
manufacturing cost. The operating principle of the
converter is elaborated and a dedicated space vector
modulation scheme is presented. The performance of the
proposed converter is verified by experiments on a 1.5
kVA prototyping UPS system
This paper proposes a novel nine-switch converter
topology for online UPS applications. As shown in Fig. 1b,
the proposed UPS system has a simple and balanced
structure which contains only one power conversion
stage. Under normal operation, the power is delivered to
the critical load partially through ac/ac direct conversion
and partially through the dc circuit. When the utility
power fails, the battery in the dc circuit delivers power to
the load.
Compared with the PWM back-to-back converter that
employs 12 active switches, the proposed converter only
uses nine switches, leading to the reduction of
manufacturing cost as well as device power losses. In
addition, the proposed UPS system features regulated
sinusoidal inputs and outputs, unity input power factor,
and seamless transition between the normal operation
and power failure modes.
