Chang-Han Bae, Kyo-Beum Lee, Joong-Ho Song, and Kwang-won Lee, "High-powerfactor Control of Boost-type Rectifier without Input Current Sensing," The Transactions of the Korean Institute of Electrical Engineers, vol. 48, no. 9, pp. 510–516, Sep. 1999. > Paper

In this paper, a new high-powerfactor control method for boost-type rectifier is proposed, which removed the necessity of input

current sensing. This method generates a sinewave duty template only from the line voltage waveform and rectifier output, and

reduces power remarkably utilizing three compensation coefficients which are determined through experiments. These

compensations make the input current to be in phase with the input voltage all over the load range. A prototype boost-type

rectifier is designed and experimental results are presented.
