Furthermore, for vehicle-to-grid applications, bidirectional converters with transformers are generally more complex and have a higher count on semiconductor switches than transformerless solutions. However, when using non-isolated DC-DC converters within an OBC, the large common-mode (CM) capacitance comprising capacitive parasitics of the traction battery as well as explicit Y-capacitors connecting the high-voltage DC-system (HV-system) within specific HV-loads to ground has to be considered. For the PFC front-end stage, when supplied from the three-phase mains this means that generation of high-frequency and high-amplitude CM voltages, as it is common e.g. with the conventional six-switch full-bridge converter, has to be strictly avoided. For this reason, a modified topology is suggested leading to a different mode of operation and to a very low common-mode noise behaviour: The three-phase four-wire full-bridge PFC with split DC-link, whose midpoint is connected to the mains neutral provides very stable potentials at the DC-link rails and therefore it can be classified as Zero-CM-topology.For dedicated single-phase operation, as required for most OBC, an additional balancing leg may be added to the topology to reduce the required DC-link capacitance and allow non-electrolytic capacitors.The function of the bidirectional Zero-CM three-phase four-wire full-bridge PFC was verified by simulation and on an 11 kW-laboratory sample. The power factor is above 0.999 and an efficiency of 98 % is measured.","lang":"eng"}],"author":[{"full_name":"Strothmann, Benjamin","id":"22556","last_name":"Strothmann","first_name":"Benjamin"},{"first_name":"Frank","id":"71291","last_name":"Schafmeister","full_name":"Schafmeister, Frank"},{"full_name":"Böcker, Joachim","id":"66","last_name":"Böcker","orcid":"0000-0002-8480-7295","first_name":"Joachim"}],"publisher":"IEEE","status":"public","year":"2021","citation":{"apa":"Strothmann, B., Schafmeister, F., & Böcker, J.
