The converter have fully-controllable voltage doubler rectifier, with control signals synchronous to that of the inverter switches. The proposed converter can regulate output voltage within wide range of the power and input voltage variations. Proposed converter does not require snubbers or resonant switches and with proposed control sequence ensures switches operation under soft-switching conditions in all transient states. Soft-switching in semiconductors allows achieving high efficiency. Moreover, the input side current is continuous. The operating principle for the energy transfer from the current-fed to voltage-fed side is described, design guidelines along with experimental verification of the proposed converter are shown in this paper. The converter proposed can be used as a front-end converter for grid connected battery storage. %G English %Z TC 5 %Z WG 5.5 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01629568/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01629568/file/448071_1_En_42_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01629568 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01629568 %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC5 %~ IFIP-WG %~ IFIP-WG5-5 %~ IFIP-DOCEIS %~ IFIP-AICT-499
