Matrix converter open circuit fault diagnosis with asymmetric one zero SVM (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Zhang, J., Empringham, L., De Lillo, L., Dan, H., & Wheeler, P. (2017). Matrix converter open circuit fault diagnosis with asymmetric one zero SVM.

An open-circuit fault detection and diagnosis strategy for a direct matrix converter is proposed in this paper. The current recirculating path during an open circuit condition is considered in detail with the aim of contributing more expert knowledge...

Highly-integrated power cell for high-power wide band-gap power converters (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Espina, J., Ahmadi, B., Empringham, L., De Lillo, L., & Johnson, C. M. (2017). Highly-integrated power cell for high-power wide band-gap power converters.

The fast switching speeds and low specific conduction losses of wide band-gap semiconductors allow the realisation of high-frequency, high power-density switching converters with dramatically reduced passive component requirements compared to Silicon...

Differential buck single phase grid connected AC-DC converter with active power decoupling using a flipping Capacitor (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Gottardo, D., De Lillo, L., Empringham, L., & Costabeber, A. (2017). Differential buck single phase grid connected AC-DC converter with active power decoupling using a flipping Capacitor.

This paper introduces a new single-phase AC-DC converter capable of achieving independent voltage control across a dedicated power decoupling capacitor, by exploiting the same full bridge that controls the grid current in combination with two bidirec...

Control of a direct matrix converter with modulated model predictive control (2017)
Journal Article
Vijayagopal, M., Zanchetta, P., Empringham, L., De Lillo, L., Tarisciotti, L., & Wheeler, P. (2017). Control of a direct matrix converter with modulated model predictive control. IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 53(3), 2342-2349. https://doi.org/10.1109/TIA.2017.2674602

This paper investigates the use of a model- predic-tive control strategy to control a direct matrix converter. The proposed control method combines the features of the classical Model Predictive Control and the Space Vector Modulation technique into...
