In this paper, an asymmetrical pulse-width-modulated (APWM) resonant inverter topology is presented for high frequency AC power distribution systems. The inverter system is comprised of simple power and control circuitry. The detailed analysis shows that the proposed inverter has very low total harmonic distortion, near-zero switching losses, and fast transient response. A design procedure is illustrated as well. Simulation and experimental results are presented to prove the performance of the proposed inverter.
