[8.22] <strong>an</strong>d the total losses <strong>of</strong> the generator are minimized by proper control <strong>of</strong> the PWM<br />

converter. In [8.23], a comprehensive control method that addressed three control<br />

objectives in a wind power generation system was presented. By regulating the currents<br />

<strong>of</strong> rectifier <strong>an</strong>d inverter, the local bus voltage is controlled to avoid voltage rise, the<br />

maximum <strong>winding</strong> power is captured while losses are minimized. The back-to-back<br />

connection <strong>of</strong> two PWM converters were used in the system [8.23]. The application <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>induction</strong> generator in electric automotives was reported in [8.24], where three different<br />

system topologies were proposed for different system cost <strong>an</strong>d system objectives. A<br />

control methodology has also be proposed to achieved the objectives.<br />

1.2.7 Parallel <strong>an</strong>d Series Connected Boost Rectifiers<br />

The parallel connected rectifiers are normally used to increase the output power <strong>of</strong> the<br />

system. Traditionally, the input sources <strong>of</strong> a parallel connected rectifier system have been<br />

isolated from each other using a tr<strong>an</strong>sformer in ac side as shown in [9.1] or using separate<br />

power supplies. In [9.1], different topologies <strong>of</strong> series <strong>an</strong>d parallel connections <strong>of</strong> the<br />

hysteresis current controlled PWM rectifiers have been investigated. The unity power<br />

factor (or leading power factor) operation <strong>of</strong> each rectifier has been reported. The<br />

particular concerns about the system stability <strong>an</strong>d the capability <strong>of</strong> sharing voltage (series<br />

connection) <strong>an</strong>d current (parallel connection) between the modular units have been<br />

addressed.<br />

The disadv<strong>an</strong>tages <strong>of</strong> the system configuration with independent power sources lie in<br />

a relatively bulky size <strong>an</strong>d higher system cost because <strong>of</strong> the line-frequency tr<strong>an</strong>sformer<br />
