Analysis and implementation of space-vector-modulated three-phase matrix converter

This study introduces a detailed analysis, design and implementation of a three-phase matrix converter based on space-vector modulation technique. The modulation strategy is described and modelled. All steps of hardware design using discrete semiconductor devices are given. The modulator is implemented using a digital signal processor. The experimental results for passive loading and three-phase induction motor conditions are given. Then the converter performance is discussed.
