In this paper, we propose a novel concept of a modular, multiport, single-stage, bidirectional, isolated, three-phase AC-DC converter system. This new system is realized using add-ons to a standard voltage source inverter, including both grid-connected AC-DC converters, like PWM rectifiers, and AC-drive DC-AC inverters. The proposed add-on converters provide isolated DC ports and can be installed into existing inverters of the abovementioned types, with no need for any modification of their topology or control system. Moreover, the add-on converters provide a minimum transistor count and high efficiency. The efficiency of the proposed add-on converters can be further improved by switching the type of pulse width modulation (PWM) scheme based on their operating point. The proposed converter system is validated for a power of 20 kW, an output voltage of 500–800 V DC, and a 40 kHz PWM frequency.
