  • Patent number: 11621651
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a high-power density, single-phase cascaded H-bridge rectifier, a control method, and a control system. The high-power density, single-phase cascaded H-bridge rectifier includes: an alternating current (AC) grid-side filter inductor and at least two cascaded power conversion units, where each power conversion unit includes an H-bridge power unit, a decoupling unit, and a direct current (DC)-side equivalent load that are connected in parallel; and each decoupling unit is an independent buck-type active power decoupling circuit, and the decoupling unit is configured to buffer secondary ripple power, to reduce a capacity of a DC bus capacitor.

  • Patent number: 11444548
    Abstract: A single-phase device-multiplexing active power decoupling cascaded rectifier and control method thereof. The rectifier includes: n device-multiplexing active power decoupling H-bridge units that are cascaded, n?2; each unit including: a bridge arm H1 and a bridge arm H2 connected in parallel, a decoupling capacitor branch formed by two capacitors connected in series, and a resistive load; a decoupling inductor being connected in series between a midpoint of the decoupling capacitor branch and a midpoint of bridge arm H2; and a bridge arm H1 of a first unit being sequentially connected in series to an inductor, resistor, and power supply, and then connected to a bridge arm H2 of a last unit. A power switch module of an H-bridge rectification unit is multiplexed, which not only realizes unit power factor rectification of the unit, but also provides a loop for secondary ripple power to achieve secondary ripple power decoupling control.
