SPWM BASED MATRIX CONVERTER FOR INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION-MATLAB SIMULATION

The most important processes in electrical engineering is the transformation and control of energy. This job is done by power electronic controlled converters. Good numbers of converter families have been developed such as rectifiers, inverters, choppers, cycloconverters etc. Each and every one of these families has its own advantages and limitations. One of the most attractive families of these converters is that of the Matrix Converters (MCs). Hence, it is proposed in this paper to model the Matrix Converter as Cycloconverter, Cycloinverter, Rectifier, Inverter, and Dual converter using Matlab/Simulink. Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation technique is used to generate the required pulses. Simulation results for different modes of Matrix converter are presented in this paper.
