An integrated nine-switch power conditioner for power quality enhancement and voltage sag mitigation by Zhang, Lei, Loh, Poh Chiang, Gao, Feng

“…Instead of accepting these tradeoffs as limitations, a nine-switch power conditioner is proposed here that virtually “converts” most of these topological short comings into interesting performance advantages. Aiming further to reduce its switching losses, an appropriate discontinuous modulation scheme is proposed and studied here in detail to doubly ensure that maximal reduction of commutations is achieved. …”
