Summary:This paper investigates the large- and small-signal response issues and, in particular, the inner loop gain and outer loop response of an indirect control method for active power-factor correction. The control scheme is based on sensing the average inductor current and generating a D_OFF (the complement of the switch duty cycle) which is proportional to the current. The method is demonstrated by considering the performance of a boost-type active power-factor corrector (APFC) that does not need to sense the input voltage. Theoretical and experimental results confirm the validity of the approach and demonstrate that the proposed method can be useful in the design of robust APFC with low total harmonic distortion. The indirect control method investigated in this paper is also compared to the classical direct APFC control method, pointing to the differences between the two
