Dual active bridge - based battery charging for EV with charging current canceling double line frequency ripple

Two-stage single-phase rectifiers, which comprises a front-end ac-dc converter and a downstream DC-DC stage, are widely used in electric vehicle onboard charger applications. In this context, the implementation of bidirectional power transfer capabilities has gained considerable attention. Then, Totempole power factor correction and Dual Active Bridge converters emerge as commendable choices for enhancing the efficiency of this configuration.
