Abstract
The electromagnetic processes of a three-phase, three-level rectifier with a vector PWM are considered. The results are presented for the process analysis in the circuit at the point where the input current passes through zero. The best sinusoidal shape of the input current is shown to take place at the unit coefficient of the input current shift. The possibility of balancing the voltage at the output rectifier capacitors is also shown. Results are obtained from modeling in the Matlab Simulink environment.
