Methods and apparatuses for providing a solution for incompatibility between nonsinusoidal waveform uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems and active power factor correction (PFC) loads are disclosed. An embodiment of the invention includes generating a nonsinusoidal signal waveform (e.g., a voltage waveform), to be delivered to the load, with a pulse width modulation (PWM) duty width, sampling the nonsinusoidal signal waveform to collect output signal samples, and adjusting the duty width to control the nonsinusoidal signal waveform as a function of the output signal samples to deliver a desired signal characteristic (e.g., RMS signal level) to the load. In embodiments of the invention, the output duty width is adjusted differently in cases of rising and falling power consumption, respectively, by the load. Techniques disclosed herein find broad applicability in UPS systems and inverters and improve efficiency and reliability for end users and utility providers. |
