This paper presents and analyzes the asymmetrical voltage-cancellation (AVC) control, a generalized control technique for resonant inverters. It is applied to the popular full-bridge series resonant inverter. The proposed control technique achieves better efficiency performances than conventional fixed-frequency control strategies, while considering zero-voltage-switching operation, output power and load variations. The theoretical results are verified experimentally, using a prototype for an induction-heating cooking appliance.
