 Abstract   A novel design principle and optimum schemes of low-distorting single- and three-phase diode rectifiers with capacitive smoothing using diode-switched-inductor and diode-switched-transformer active filters are proposed and analyzed. The power factor correction technique proposed is based on the second-harmonic power conversion in single-phase rectifiers and the third-harmonic power conversion in three-phase rectifiers to an additional quantity of dc power in the active filter. More precisely, such a conversion takes place in an appropriate controlled current source implemented by a current-shaping time-variable inductor or transformer. To implement diode rectifiers with sinusoidal supply currents, continuous inductance or transformation ratio variation is needed. Nevertheless, a proper stepped variation of the filter inductance or that of the transformation ratio enables to synthesize diode rectifiers with high power factor using only the simplest diode switches.
