Optimization Of Input And Output Filters In Matrix Converter Drive System

摘要

This paper presents an AC-AC power converter integrated with techniques that provide environmental harmony. The voltage source PWM inverter has been established as the major motor drive equipment. However, it is associated with issues pertaining to PWM switching as well as issues related to the input harmonics caused by capacitor input-type rectification. Hence, there is need for a converter that addresses these problems and provides an environmentally harmonious solution. The matrix converter has a topology that inherently exhibits sinusoidal input current waveforms and less stressful output voltage waveforms. Combining the matrix converter with certain filter topologies is shown to provide an environmentally harmonious solution.
