Fixed frequency finite-state model predictive control for indirect matrix converters with optimal switching pattern (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Lei, J., Tariscotti, L., Trentin, A., Zanchetta, P., Wheeler, P., & Formentini, A. (2016). Fixed frequency finite-state model predictive control for indirect matrix converters with optimal switching pattern.

Finite States Model Predictive Control (MPC) has been recently applied to several converters topologies for the many advantages it can provide such as fast dynamics, multi-target control capabilities, easy implementation on digital control board and...

Experimental comparison of devices thermal cycling in direct matrix converters (DMC) and Indirect Matrix Converters (IMC) using SiC MOSFETs (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Trentin, A., Zanchetta, P., Empringham, L., De Lillo, L., Wheeler, P., & Clare, J. C. (2016). Experimental comparison of devices thermal cycling in direct matrix converters (DMC) and Indirect Matrix Converters (IMC) using SiC MOSFETs.

This paper presents an experimental comparison between a Direct Matrix Converter and an Indirect Matrix Converter in terms of semiconductor devices thermal cycling. Both converters have been designed and built using SiC MOSFETs; the Indirect Matrix C...
