Zero-Vector-Reconfiguration Based SVPWM Technique for ZVZCS and Voltage Spike Suppression High-Frequency Link Three-Phase AC-DC Converter

The evolution of vehicle-to-grid(V2G) technology introduces new challenges for high-performance AC-DC converters. This paper proposes a zero-vector-reconfiguration based SVPWM modulation technique for high-frequency link three-phase (HFLTP) AC-DC converter, which utilizes zero-vector reconfiguration to enable soft-switching and soft commutation in both rectifier and inverter modes. The proposed HFLTP AC-DC converter consists of a matrix converter (MC) and a full bridge converter (FBC), interconnected via a high-frequency transformer (HFT) to form a single-stage power converter with high power density and compact dimensions. The proposed modulation technique, which is based on SVPWM, reconfigures zero vectors to enable zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) for the FBC and zerocurrent-switching (ZCS) for the MC. Simultaneously, it suppresses voltage spikes of power devices and HFT without adding any auxiliary circuits. Notably, the proposed modulation strategy eliminates the necessity for current polarity detection, allowing for the application of the same switching sequence in both rectifier and inverter modes. To validate the efficacy and performance of the proposed modulation technique, a 160 VDC–110 VAC, 1.2 kW prototype has been developed
