title = "Novel T-type Dual-Buck Inverter with Minimum Number of Inductors",
abstract = "It is well-known that the benefits of the dual-buck structure are no-reverse recovery problem of the body diodes, no shoot-through worry, and high efficiency. However, the conventional dual-buck structure requires two inductors for one-phase leg. This paper proposes a novel T-type dual-buck inverter with minimum number of inductors The proposed inverter contains only one inductor in each T-type dual-buck phase leg, thus, the total number of inductors is reduced by half. Therefore, the volume and the weight of inverter can be reduced. The operating principle and pulse width modulation method (PWM) is presented. A single-phase prototype hardware is built and tested, experimental results are provided to verify the theoretical analysis.",
