Current control system for high frequency link cycloconverter

Abstract From the Canadian patent

In a system including an input cycloconverter which operates a high frequency resonant tank from a source of low frequency voltage applied through a reactor with or without, an output cycloconverter an input cycloconverter control, circuit independently controls real and reactive power or real power and input power factor. The in-phase and quadrature components of input line current as well as the tank voltage are controlled, and for the main application a simpler implementation has a limited range of phase angle settings close to 0° and to ?90°. The current control technique has the advantages of fast response and simplicity.
