A new class of impedance networks is proposed in this paper. The proposed coupled-inductors-based impedance cells, called the series and the tapped switched-coupled-inductors (SSCL and TSCL) are employed within the (quasi) ...

This paper proposes two coupled-inductorsbased Z-source networks, called the modified series and tapped switched-coupled-inductors quasi-Z-source networks -mSSCL-qZSN and mTSCL-qZSN-. These networks offer high voltage gains ...

In this paper, a novel direct AC-AC converter based on the coupled inductor Z-source networks is proposed that offers a wide range of buck-boost operation. Two Z-source networks, called the coupled switched inductor (CSL) ...

This paper introduces a novel single-phase buck-boost -non--inverting variable-frequency AC-AC converter that offers a higher efficiency compared to the competitors. This converter utilizes a lower number of semiconductors. ...

Two new power factor correction (PFC) rectifiers with the voltage buck-boost capability are proposed in this paper, called as Ferdowsi rectifiers, abbreviated as FRs. The proposed rectifiers employ a reduced number of ...
