Direct predictive current-error vector control for a direct matrix converter (2018)
Journal Article
Vijayagopal, M., Silva, C. A., Empringham, L., & De Lillo, L. (2019). Direct predictive current-error vector control for a direct matrix converter. IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, 34(2), 1925-1935. https://doi.org/10.1109/TPEL.2018.2833495

This paper proposes a novel control strategy for matrix converters which is coined “Direct Predictive Current-error Vector Control”. The proposed control method retains the advantageous features of both a modulation scheme and of a predictive based c...
