Multi-phase converters for more than three-phase applications have become increasingly important topics due to their distinct advantages compared with the conventional three-phase converters. This paper proposes a modified PWM switching technique for direct AC-AC three-to-five phase matrix converter to realize output voltage waveform with low total harmonic distortion (THD) and reduce the total commutation number of its bidirectional power switches in each control period, simultaneously. In order to minimize the switching loss and reduce the voltage stress on all power switches of the matrix converter, the proposed PWM switching pattern prevents any state of direct commutation and switching between the maximum and minimum grid phase voltages. This in-turn enhances the converter durability and lifetime in addition to the power density. Also, the proposed PWM switching technique has the ability to fully control the load voltage waveform and its frequency to meet the reference values. In addition, it has the ability to control the three-phase grid currents to be sinusoidal waveforms and in-phase with grid voltages for unity power factor. Moreover, it enables voltage transfer ratio of 78.86% of the source input voltage. A laboratory prototype has been carried out in order to investigate the effectiveness of the proposed switching technique.

“…Besides, the switching frequency can be increased by reducing the controller sampling time. This action reduces the prediction time for selecting an optimal switching state [23]. Therefore, the switching states will change in a shorter period, and subsequently, the switching frequency will increase.…”

In this paper, an improved model predictive control method is proposed to drive an induction motor fed by a three-level matrix converter. The main objective of this paper is to present a novel method to increase the switching frequency at a constant sampling time. Also, it is analytically discussed that increasing the switching frequency not only can decrease the motor current ripples, but it can also significantly reduce its torque ripples. Finally, this study demonstrates that reducing the motor current ripple will improve the quality of the supply current. To be the accurate model and validate the motor drive system, a co-simulation method, which is a combination of FLUX and MATLAB software packages, is employed to find the simulation results. The findings indicate that the proposed method diminishes the THD of the supply current up to 26% approximately. Furthermore, increasing the switching frequency results in the torque ripple reduction by up to 10% almost.

“…The four‐leg indirect matrix converter (4Leg‐IMC) is a promising topology to handle four‐wire systems which is created by an array of semiconductors that connect in a direct manner the power supply to any unbalanced load. The main characteristic of this power converter is the absence of large energy storage elements being a suitable alternative when weight and size are important issues [8].…”

Model predictive control (MPC) has emerged as a real alternative for the control of different topologies of power converters. In particular, MPC has been successfully applied in matrix converters, significantly reducing the difficulty of control compared with classical techniques. In this study, a predictive voltage control strategy for a four-leg indirect matrix converter is proposed. The idea is based on the discrete minimisation of a cost function in order to select the best vector state of the power converter to be applied in the next sampling instant. Experimental results are presented to validate the proposal under several operating points.
