Improved Direct Torque and Reactive Power Control of a Matrix-Converter-Fed Grid-Connected Doubly Fed Induction Generator

A review of predictive control techniques for matrix converter applications

“…for Matrix Converters Scalar Techniques [5], [6] Pulse Width Modulation [7]- [10] Direct Torque Control [11], [12] Direct Power Control [13], [14] Model Predictive Control [15]- [38] Other Methods Direct Transfer Function [5] Scalar (Roy) [6] Carrier Based PWM [7], [8] Space Vector Modulation [9], [10] Predictive Current Control [15]- [24] Predictive Torque Control [25]- [29] Predictive Power Control [30]- [33] Predictive Voltage Control [34]- [36] Unity Transfer [37], [38] [40], [41] Fig. 2.…”

“…As reviewed in [39] and shown in Fig. 2, the most commonly used techniques are Venturini [5], carrier-based pulse width modulation (PWM) [7], [8], space vector modulation (SVM) [9], [10] and direct torque control (DTC) [11], [12]. Other control methods that have been applied to MCs in specific applications are fuzzy control, neural networks and genetic algorithms [40], [41].…”

A New Configuration of Dual Stator Induction Generator Employing Series and Shunt Capacitors

“…Doubly-fed induction machines (DFIMs) have been found suitable for motor drives or generation systems where the speed-range of operation is limited as the control of the overall system can be performed by a fractionally rated converter connected on the rotor side [1]- [3]. Wind-energy conversion system forms one of the best examples of such application [4]. However, brushes and slip-rings are prone to failure and require regular maintenance.…”

New configurations of power converters for grid interconnection systems

“…Different modulation and control methods for MCs can be found in the literature [34]- [37]. These methods have different implementations and different levels of complexity, but all have dynamic behavior which is acceptable in a variety of applications.…”
