Distributed power-supply systems are an attractive solution to meeting the requirements (redundancy, modularity, battery backup, etc.) for the next generation of power-supply systems. In addition, the normalization regarding power factor and total harmonic distortion (THD) makes it necessary to include the power-factor correction in the input stage in those architectures. This paper presents a ...

The flyback converter type single-stage converter and a half wave rectifier with time-multiplexing control (TMC) for power factor correction is proposed. It has the advantage of better magnetic core utilization and better performance for high power applications. The major portion of the input is transferred to the load through ac-dc conversion. And the part of the input power is delivered to th...

Future smart grids will be featured by flexible supply-demand management and great incursion of renewable energy to enable efficient and inexpensive grid operation. While the renewable energy offer a cheaper and cleaner energy deliver, it introduces supply improbability due to the volatility of renewable source. In this project power consumption of the loads are determined according to that the...
