Matrix converter is basically direct three phase to three phase converter and it’s operation is based upon switching pattern of all nine switches, which are available in this converter. The output of ac converter is fed as the input of three phase induction motor. The performance of three phase matrix converter fed induction motor drive is analyzed by the switching pattern obtained by matrix co...

Received Feb 3, 2017 Revised Mar 18, 2017 Accepted May 5, 2017 Dual input dc-dc converters have two input voltage sources or one input source and an energy storage system like ultra capacitor, PV, battery, super capacitors and a single output load. In order to process the power in hybrid energy systems using reduced part count, researchers have proposed several multi-input dc-dc power converter...
