ABSTRACT:
A system for generating an output power to a load is provided. The system comprises a generator configured for generating a variable frequency output power and a dual mode rectifier coupled to the generator and configured for being switched between a passive mode and an active mode. The dual mode rectifier comprises a passive rectifier coupled to output terminals of the generator and configured for operating in the passive mode and an active converter coupled to tappings from windings of the generator and configured for operating in the active mode.
