The use of matrix converters in direct torque control of induction machines

Abstract
In this paper a new control method for matrix converters is proposed which allows, under the constraint of unity input power factor, the generation of the voltage vectors required to implement the direct torque control (DTC) of induction machines. Using this control method it is possible to combine the advantages of matrix converters with the advantages of the DTC schemes. Some numerical simulations are carried out showing the effectiveness of the proposed method in steady-state and transient conditions.
