21 Mar 2012-pp 218-223
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on buck/boost rectification by single phase matrix converter with fewer number of switches and the switch commutation arrangements are also carried out in this work.
Abstract: This Paper focused on Buck/Boost Rectification by Single Phase Matrix Converter with fewer numbers of switches. The conventional matrix converter consists of 4 bidirectional switches, i.e. 8 set of IGBT/MOSFET with anti parallel diodes. In this proposed matrix converter, only six switches are used. The switch commutation arrangements are also carried out in this work. The gate pulses to the switches are provided by the PWM techniques. Step up or step down DC outputs can be obtained by using suitable switching algorithm. The PSIM simulation results are provided to validate the feasibility of this proposed method.

TL;DR: Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors are used in the power circuit as switching devices to implement SPMC topology and Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation technique is used to obtain switching signals.
Abstract: Recently, the development of advanced power semiconductor devices has made widespread use of power switching circuits and other power electronics applications in commercial and industrial environments. This paper focuses on Single Phase Matrix Converter (SPMC) as a AC-DC boost rectifier and AC-DC buck rectifier. The SPMC was operated in the desired mode using a single driver circuit. Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs) are used in the power circuit as switching devices to implement SPMC topology. Switching signals are obtained by Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) technique. The simulation is carried out using MATLAB / Simulink.

TL;DR: In this article, speed control of a separately excited DC motor was performed using Single Phase Matrix Converter (SPMC) in buck-boost mode using MATLAB/Simulink simulation.
Abstract: In this study, speed control of a separately excited DC motor was performed using Single Phase Matrix Converter (SPMC). The driver circuit that operates SPMC in buck-boost mode was used. The DC motor was first run without any controller and the change in speed was observed in the case of loading. Then, the motor was run by using PI controller and speed of the motor was kept constant during loading. Switches in the single-phase matrix converter are switched using Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) technique. MATLAB/Simulink was used for simulation.

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.
Abstract: The matrix converter is an array of controlled semiconductor switches that connects directly the three-phase source to the three-phase load. This converter has several attractive features that have been investigated in the last two decades. In the last few years, an increase in research work has been observed, bringing this topology closer to the industrial application. This paper presents the state-of-the-art view in the development of this converter, starting with a brief historical review. An important part of the paper is dedicated to a discussion of the most important modulation and control strategies developed recently. Special attention is given to present modern methods developed to solve the commutation problem. Some new arrays of power bidirectional switches integrated in a single module are also presented. Finally, this paper includes some practical issues related to the practical application of this technology, like overvoltage protection, use of filters and ride-through capability.

Abstract: A topology of a single-phase AC/AC direct power converter is presented. The circuit, composed from four ideal power switches, is used as a frequency step-up converter. The equations of the proposed converter are developed, its switching angle pattern is calculated and the dynamic behaviour of the system is simulated. Using a power MOSFET and four Schottky diodes, the basic power switch is assembled and a power converter fed from 50 V (RMS), 50 Hz, supplying a passive R, L load operated at 100 Hz, was constructed. Satisfactory agreement between simulated and laboratory results was observed.

TL;DR: In this article, an implementation of the Single-Phase Matrix Converter (SPMC) as a direct AC-AC converter subjected to passive load conditions is presented. But the performance of the SPMC was not evaluated.
Abstract: This paper is concerned on investigations in implementations of the Single-Phase Matrix Converter (SPMC) as a direct AC-AC converter subjected to passive load conditions. The output voltage was synthesized using the well-known Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) technique. A Xilinx Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) was used to implement the controlling algorithm with IGBTs as power switching device. Prior to hardware implementation, simulations were performed to predict the behaviour. A laboratory model test-rig of the SPMC was then developed to experimentally verify the result. Good agreement was obtained between simulations and experiments.

TL;DR: A simple commutation strategy for implementation in single phase matrix converter provides the required free-wheeling operation similar to those available in other converter topologies is proposed.
Abstract: The use of direct AC-AC converter based on matrix converter topology is restricted due to inherent limitations One of those limitations is the absence of the natural free-wheeling path afforded in conventional converter topology through the use of diodes In this work a simple commutation strategy for implementation in single phase matrix converter provides the required free-wheeling operation similar to those available in other converter topologies is proposed The commutation scheme establishes a current path for energy to flow during dead-time, thus avoiding the generation of voltage spikes Experimental results obtained in a laboratory test-rig are also presented to verify successful application of the technique
