The proposed SVPWM strategy utilizes the conduction state of the energy storage switch as the zero vector and assigning effective vectors action modes. The zero-voltageswitching (ZVS) of the energy storage switch is achieved by resonant parameters and controlling the turn-on time of the active clamp circuit. The circuit topology, operation principle, high-frequency switching process of the studied CSI are thoroughly analyzed, and detailed calculations of the circuit parameters and soft-switching design are performed. Experimental results on a 1 kW 24 VDC/84 VAC 3-phase AC prototype show that the modulation improves the CSI peak efficiency by 1.15% compared to sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM). This study provides an effective design approach for the HVTR-CSI in terms of reducing switching losses.}, title={A zero-voltage-switching current source inverter with three-stage space vector modulation for low-input voltage stand-alone applications}, type={Article}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/133383/PDF-MASTER/06_2k.pdf}, doi={10.24425/aee.2024.152104}, keywords={boost voltage ratio, current source inverter (CSI), three-stage SVPWM strategy(SVM), zero voltage switching (ZVS)}, }
