The Modular multilevel matrix converter (M3C) is a promising topology for medium-voltage, high-power applications. Due to the modular structure, it is scalable, produces high quality output waveforms and can be fault tolerant. However, the M3C suffer...

A survey on configurations of current-limiting circuit breakers (CL-CB) (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Gu, C., Wheeler, P., Castellazzi, A., Watson, A. J., & Effah, F. B. (2016). A survey on configurations of current-limiting circuit breakers (CL-CB).

This paper presents a survey of topology configurations of current-limiting circuit breakers. Twelve different current-limiting topologies within four categories are detailed discussed and compared. It is concluded that active CL-CB may be a good cho... Read More about A survey on configurations of current-limiting circuit breakers (CL-CB).
