Abstract


In this paper, a matrix converter that connects directly a three phase ac load to a three ac source is modelled using MATLAB & Simulink and its working principles are analysed. The gate signals of the power switches of matrix converter are produced using Venturini Modulation and Optimum Amplitude-Venturini Modulation (OAVM) method. This method provides the amplitude of output voltage up to 86.66% of input voltage, and output currents are sinusoidal. The simulation results obtained from the model at various operating conditions are presented. These results prove effectiveness of the proposed matrix converter model with a unity input power factor. Consequently, the designed MATALB & Simulink model can be confidently used for an application which requires a variable ac power of variable voltage and frequency.
