Current-source power converting apparatus with self-extinction devices

TLDR
In this paper, a three phase AC-DC converter composed of self-extinction devices for converting an AC power furnished from an three-phase AC power source into a DC power and a DC-AC inverter connected with the ACDC converter through a DC reactor for re-converting the DC power into a 3 phase AC power to supply the reconverted power for a load.
Abstract
A current-source power converting apparatus having a three phase AC-DC converter composed of self-extinction devices for converting an AC power furnished from an three phase AC power source into a DC power and a DC-AC inverter connected with the AC-DC converter through a DC reactor for re-converting the DC power into a three phase AC power to supply the re-converted power for a load. When the failure of the AC power source is detect according to one embodiment, the AC power source is detached from the AC-DC converter and a battery is connected between arbitrary two phases at the input end of the AC-DC converter. After that, the DC power of the battery is supplied for the DC-AC inverter intermittently by switching the corresponding self-extinction devices of the AC-DC converter and controlled by varying the duty ratio of the switching operation.
