Journal ArticleDOI

Doubly fed induction generator using back-to-back PWM converters and its application to variable-speed wind-energy generation

TL;DR: The paper describes the engineering and design of a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG), using back-to-back PWM voltage-source converters in the rotor circuit, which results in independent control of active and reactive power drawn the supply, while ensuring sinusoidal supply currents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Matrix converters: a technology review

TL;DR: The state-of-the-art view in the development of this matrix converter is presented, starting with a brief historical review and an important part of the paper is dedicated to a discussion of the most important modulation and control strategies developed recently.
Journal ArticleDOI

A doubly fed induction generator using back-to-back PWM converters supplying an isolated load from a variable speed wind turbine

TL;DR: In this paper, a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) was designed to drive at variable speed from a wind turbine and supplying an isolated load, and two back-to-back PWM voltage-fed inverters connected between the stator and the rotor allowed sub-and super-synchronous operation with low distortion currents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fault Detection for Modular Multilevel Converters Based on Sliding Mode Observer

TL;DR: In this paper, a fault detection method for modular multilevel converters which is capable of locating a faulty semiconductor switching device in the circuit is presented. But this technique requires no additional measurement elements and can easily be implemented in a DSP or microcontroller.
Journal ArticleDOI

Technological Issues and Industrial Application of Matrix Converters: A Review

TL;DR: This paper presents a review of the current state of the art in terms of practical matrix converter technologies and reports on the reported use of the matrix converters in different applications.
