Simulation of 3-phase matrix converter using space vector modulation

Abstract

<p>This paper illustrates the simulation of 3-phase matrix converter using Space Vector Modulation (SVM). Variable AC output voltage engendered using matrix converter with bidirectional power switches controlled by appropriate switching pulse. The conventional PWM converter engenders switching common mode voltage across the load system terminals, which cause to common mode current and its leads to bearing failure in load drive. These problems can be rectified using SVM and which minimize the effect on the harmonic fluctuation in AC output voltage and stress on the power switch is reduced using bidirectional switch for proposed 3-phase matrix converter. The simulation results have been presented to validate the proposed system using matlab / simulink.</p>

Implementation of space vector modulation for two level Three-phase inverter using dSPACE DS1104

“…Various pulse-width modulation (PWM) techniques have been developed for industrial applications. The most widely used PWM schemes for three-phase voltage source inverters are carrier based sinusoidal PWM [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] and space vector PWM (SVPWM) [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. The output voltage per phase for a sinusoidal PWM based three phase converter is limited to 0.5Vdc (peak value) and the line-to-line RMS voltage is 0.612Vdc.…”

Performance comparison of field oriented control based permanent magnet synchronous motor fed by matrix converter using PI and IP speed controllers

“…Matrix converters which directly connect the AC supply to an AC load are made up of bidirectional switches arranged in a matrix form. In a three phase in three-phase out matrix converter there are nine bidirectional switches arranged as a matrix [6][7][8][20][21][22]. By using various switching techniques, it is possible to generate output voltage waveforms with various frequencies and amplitudes to satisfy the load requirements.…”

“…One of the most attractive feature of matrix converters (MC) when compared to conventional voltage source inverter and active-rectifier combinations is the absence of a large DC link capacitance, since for high power applications this is a relatively expensive and bulky component which is widely recognized as having a significantly 1157 higher failure rate than other components. Hence, MCs are potentially attractive for aerospace applications, for example, for which reliability and weight are crucial [6][7][8], For example, by using Venturini's modulation technique in its simplified form, MCs are capable of providing simultaneous amplitude and frequency transformation of a three-phase voltage system and allow a wide range of output voltage, with desirable features, such as sinusoidal input and output waveforms, bi-directional energy flow capability, and with adjustable displacement angle (i.e. controllable input power factor) on the mains side under certain conditions [9][10], and high power/volume ratio.…”

Photovoltaic fed multilevel inverter using reverse voltage topology for standalone systems

“…To some point, the voltage adjusting can be tended to by utilizing recursive (repeatative) exchanging states, which exist because of the utilization of more number of semiconductor switches. However, for a total answer for the voltage-adjusting issue, a more effective multilevel inverter topology might be required [10][11][12].…”
