Abstract :
Matrix converters have been considered as one of the future converter concepts for renewable energy applications, due to higher power density and efficiency. Typically, these converters are employed in voltage step-down operation mode, e.g. variable speed drives. In this paper, the voltage step-up operation mode is analyzed for the indirect matrix converters. Simulations results demonstrate the performance of the analyzed system.
