Studies on control electronics implementation of Single-phase Matrix converter operating as AC-DC Converter with active power filter

Abstract

This paper presents studies on control electronics implementation of single-phase matrix converter operating as AC-DC converter with active power filter. The control electronics uses discrete integrated circuits (ICs) for analogue control whilst the peripheral interface controller (PIC) for digital control implementation. Comparisons are made on the performance with selected simulation and experimental results, to verify proposed operation.
