The variable speed of 41generators in aircrafts implies voltage variations which lead to an over-dimensioning of actuators VSIs. The aim is to show that interlaced high frequency Boost-converters in cascade with the VSI, may lead to reduce the actuators global size without reducing their efficiency.
