Abstract
Advances in power electronics in the last few decades have led to not only just improvements in power devices but also new concepts in converter topologies, modulations, and control strategies. In the 1970s, conventional pulse-width modulation (PWM) power converters were operated in a switched-mode operation. Due to the nonideal switching characteristics, power switches have to switch their currents within the turn-on and turn-off times under the hard-switching conditions, ...
