High voltage DC power generation

摘要

A DC power system (100) includes a permanent magnet generator (PMG) (101), and an active rectifier (102) in electrical communication with the PMG. The active rectifier is adapted to actively rectify power output from the PMG if the PMG is operating at low speed, and the active rectifier is further adapted to passively rectify power output from the PMG if the PMG is operating at high speed.
