ENHANCEMENT OF UPFC PERFORMANCE WITH MATRIX CONVERTER USING ADVANCED DIRECT POWER CONTROL METHOD

Advanced Direct Power Control Method of UPFC by Using Matrix Converter

This paper presents a direct power control (DPC) for three-phase matrix converters operating as unified power flow controllers (UPFCs). Matrix converters (MCs) allow the direct ac/ac power conversion without dc energy storage links; therefore, the MC-based UPFC (MCUPFC) has reduced volume and cost, reduced capacitor power losses, together with higher reliability. Theoretical principles of direc...

A Novel Direct Power Control Method of Matrix Converter as UPFC

This paper presents state space vector analysis for three-phase matrix converter (MC) operating as unified power flow controllers (UPFCs). It allows direct ac/ac power conversion without dc energy storage links; therefore, it reduces volume, cost, and capacitor power losses, together with higher reliability. The line active and reactive power, together with ac supply reactive power, can be dire...

Matrix Converter Using Direct Svm Method with Input Power Factor Compensation

The matrix converter (MC) for motor drive applications and energy conversion systems is steadily increasing due to its main advantage of performing a direct coupling between two three-phase alternating current sources without the need of an intermediate direct current bus. The input filters characteristics design for matrix converter system: to reduce the high harmonic components at the main po...

Matrix Converter Induction Motor Drive Employing Direct Torque Control Method

The presented paper deals with the implementation of the Switching Table Based Direct Torque Control (ST-DTC) in the matrix converter-fed induction motor drive. In order to improve the control of the matrix converter input power factor, the use of the simplified Indirect Space Vector Modulation (ISVM) was proposed. To verify the feasibility of the proposed solution, experimental results were pr...
