The matrix converter (MC) has recently attracted significant attention among researchers because of its applications in wind energy conversion, military power supplies, induction motor drives, etc. Recently, different MC topologies have been proposed and developed which have their own advantages and disadvantages. Matrix converter can be classified as a direct and indirect structure. This chapter aims to give a general description of the basic features of a three phase to three phase matrix converters in terms of performance and of technological issues. Matrix converter is a direct AC-AC converter topology that is able to directly convert energy from an AC source to an AC load without the need of a bulky and limited lifetime energy storage element. AC-AC topologies receive extensive research attention for being an alternative to replace traditional AC-DC-AC converters in the variable voltage and variable frequency AC drive applications.

In the last several years, thanks to the development and continuous improvement of semiconductor switching elements, and the simultaneous increase in interest in multi-phase drives, the investigation into constructing multi-phase converters has been growing. The matrix converter (MC) is considered to be one of the contenders for use in the multi-phase drive. In the context of using MC in the drive, it is expected to eliminate the common mode voltage (CMV). Another important problem is the ability to correct the input displacement angle to ensure the operation of the MC with unity input power factor. The purpose of the article is to present an MC modulation strategy that implements both CMV elimination and input displacement angle adjustment. Analytical and simulation analyses of the strategy, in application to three-to-multi-phase MC is presented. The suggested modulation strategy in applying to three-to-multi-phase MC is implemented in ATP-EMTP (Alternative Transients Program-ElectroMagnetic Transients Program) software. Simulation results are provided for a three-to-three-phase three-to-six-phase and three-to-nine-phase MC. The proposed modulation strategy is validated using an experimental approach.

Symmetry is not only used to simplify the analysis of three-phase electrical systems, but it is also used to define its voltages, currents and loads. When the loads are symmetrical, the currents of a three-phase AC system are expected to be symmetrical as well. Given the proper conditions, in converters such as the matrix converter (MC), the output voltages and currents are expected to be sinusoidal with periodic symmetry. However, in some cases this symmetry is broken so that, there appears nonlinear behaviors such as quasiperiodicity and so on. Based on simulations and experiments, this paper focuses on an analysis of a quasiperiodic behavior and the presence of a DC component in the output currents of a Venturini modulated MC. The presence of such behaviors in the output currents indicates that the symmetry in a period is broken. The broken symmetries appear when the input and output frequencies are mismatched. In addition, this paper shows the possibility to recover the symmetry of the output currents of the MC. The method for symmetry recovery is based on a time-delayed feedback control. The simulation and experimental results indicate the possibility of attenuating the quasiperiodic behavior and DC component.

The matrix converter (MC) is a promising converter that performs the direct AC-to-AC conversion. Model predictive control (MPC) is a simple and powerful tool for power electronic converters, including the MC. However, weighting factor design and heavy computational burden impose significant challenges for this control strategy. This paper investigates the generalized sequential MPC (SMPC) for a three-phase direct MC. In this control strategy, each control objective has an individual cost function and these cost functions are evaluated sequentially based on priority. The complex weighting factor design process is not required. Compared with the standard MPC, the computation burden is reduced because only the pre-selected switch states are evaluated in the second and subsequent sequential cost functions. In addition, the prediction model computation for the following cost functions is also reduced. Specifying the priority for control objectives can be achieved. A comparative study with traditional MPC is carried out both in simulation and an experiment. Comparable control performance to the traditional MPC is achieved. This controller is suitable for the MC because of the reduced computational burden. Simulation and experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

<span lang="EN-IN">This paper presents harmonic analysis of matrix converter using different control technique for balance and Unbalance three phase input voltage of reactive load. Since Matrix converter is subject to affected either by external disturbance or by load conditions. Due to this the supply voltage becomes unbalance. This cause improper switching of matrix converter results higher harmonics. This harmonics are harmful to the quality of the output power. The switching sequence of the matrix converter is controlled by vector control method. Different control technique is proposed in this paper to get optimized result with reduced harmonic for unbalanced and balance input voltage using PID, Fractional Order PID (PI<sup>λ</sup>Dδ) controller (FOPID), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)FOPID. PID control technique result are compared with other optimization technique for best optimum output. The FOPID controller is used to compensates the current and also improvise the quality of energy by reducing the harmonic content. The simulations and hardware results will be presented and interpreted. The effectivess of the proposed system is proven with the results is shown in this paper which produce a better steady state lesser transient rather than the conventional PID method.</span>

This paper suggested a new contribution of three phase AC to AC matrix converter MC via fuzzy logic controller FLC to enhance the whole system. However, the weakness of matrix converter is that the input- output voltage transfer is control to 87% for input and output waveform. Also, matrix converter is more sensitive to the trouble of input voltage which deteriorates the system performance. To overcome these problems, and to improve the efficiency of system, FLC with matrix converter is proposed to minimize the sensitivity to the load, and to increase voltage transfer. In this paper the currents a,b,c are converted to alpha and beta current via Clarke transformation . In this method two FLC are used. The error (between alpha current and reference current) (e) and the change of this error (de) will apply to first FLC. The output of FLC is actual alpha current. In the other hand, the error of beta current and the change of error are also passes through the second FLC to produce the actual beta current. The actual alpha and beta current is converted to direct and quadrature d-q current by park transformation. The d-q current is converted to (a, b, c) out currents by inverse park transformation, the results of this method express that the matrix converter with FLC is more capable, high accuracy with better efficiency as compared with conventional matrix converter system.


This paper presents a three-phase AC-AC matrix converter as a frequency converter. Due to continuous increase in the use of electronics converters like AC- AC, AC- DC, DC – AC and DC-DC, there is always a thrust to develop a converter, which generates lesser harmonics, minimum switching losses and high quality desired waveforms across output and input. The matrix converter is modeled as a combined operation of Inverter and Rectifier. In this paper, the focus is to design and Implementation of Matrix Converter (MC) for frequency changing applications .A simple PWM mechanism is proposed to design a mathematical model of three phase Matrix Converter. There is no DC link between rectifier and inverter stage which add up some efficient properties like compact design, bidirectional current flow capabilities. A suitable commutation technique is analyzed. Simulation work is done in MATLAB Simulink environment and comparison with mathematical results are presented
