A low‐rating 40‐pulse AC–DC rectifier based on a new passive harmonic mitigation circuit by Rohollah Abdollahi, Gevork B. Gharehpetian

“…This PHMC is based on 2 harmonic suppression circuits and contains four tapped reactor and 4 auxiliary diodes. 50 Hz simulations of the improved 40PR indicate that THD of the input current and voltage is less than 2%, which meets the IEEE‐519 standard. In addition, without using any input and output filters, input current harmonic components at 400–800 Hz are less than the requirements mentioned in the DO‐160G and MIL‐STD‐704F standards. …”
