Light Load Efficiency Improvements in Dual Active Bridge Converters via Dead time Control

Many converters suffer from poor efficiency at light loads even though much of their lifetime is spent at lightly loaded conditions. During normal operation, the dual active bridge (DAB) family of converters loses soft switching at low power levels, leading to poor light-load efficiency. In this pap...
