This paper presents a combined phase-shift and frequency modulation scheme of a dual–active-bridge (DAB) ac–dc converter with power factor correction (PFC) to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) over the full range of the ac mains voltage. The DAB consists of a half bridge with bidirectional switches on the ac side and a full bridge on the dc side of the isolation transformer to accomplish single-stage power conversion. The modulation scheme is described by means of analytical formulas, which are used in an optimization procedure to determine the optimal control variables for minimum switch commutation currents. Furthermore, an ac current controller suitable for the proposed modulation scheme is described. A loss model and measurements on a 3.3-kW electric vehicle battery charger to connect to the 230 \textV_\textrms / 50-Hz mains considering a battery voltage range of 280–420 V validate the theoretical analysis.
