A Single-Phase Buck-Boost Matrix Converter with Low Switching Stresses

الملخص EN

The suggested single-phase ac-to-ac matrix converter operated with inverting and noninverting characteristics may solve the grid voltage swell and sag problem in power distribution system, respectively.

It is also employed as a direct frequency changer for domestic induction heating.

The output voltage is regulated through duty cycle control of high frequency direct PWM (DPWM) and indirect PWM (IDPWM) switching devices.

The DPWM control switches control the switching states of IDPWM switching devices.

The inverting and noninverting characteristics are achieved with low voltage stresses and hence low dv/dt across the high and low frequency-controlled switches.

This reduces their voltage rating and losses.

The high voltage overshoot problem in frequency step-up operation is also analyzed.

The sliding mode (SM) controller is employed to solve this problem.

Pulse selective approach determines the power quality of load voltage.

The validity of the mathematically computed values is carried out by modelling the proposed topology in MATLAB/Simulink environment and through hardware results.
