<strong>IMPLEMENTATION</strong> <strong>OF</strong> <strong>MATRIX</strong> <strong>CONVERTER</strong> <strong>CONTROL</strong><br />
<strong>CIRCUIT</strong> WITH DIRECT SPACE VECTOR MODULATION AND<br />

Tadra Grzegorz, University of Zielona Gora, Poland<br />
Abstract<br />
In this paper a matrix converter control circuit<br />
with implemented vector modulation and four-step<br />
commutation strategy is described. The presented<br />
control circuit consists of two DSP processors and<br />
FPGA. The matrix converter is a device build with 9<br />
bidirectional switches (18 IGBT transistors). The<br />
Control circuit in contest makes possible of the<br />
matrix converter output voltage amplitude and<br />
frequency change, in addition input power factor can<br />
be controlled. Some simulation and experimental<br />
tests results of the ca. 1 kVA matrix converter<br />
laboratory model controlled by described control<br />
circuit are shown.<br />
1. Introduction<br />
In recent years transformation and control of<br />
energy has been mostly realized with indirect AC-AC<br />
converters with DC link. An alternative for this<br />
solution is still searched for. One of the recently<br />
considered alternatives is Matrix Converter (MC).<br />
The MC is a direct energy converter (build with nine<br />
bidirectional switches) able to connect every output<br />
phase to every input phase and on this principle<br />
deliver output power with desired frequency.<br />
The main advantages of the MC are: 1- lack of<br />
the DC link energy storage device, 2- generation of<br />
the load voltages with arbitrary amplitude and<br />
frequency, 3- sinusoidal input and output currents, 4-<br />
possibility to control input power factor, 5-<br />
regeneration capability. The basic disadvantages are:<br />
1- maximum input/output voltage transfer ratio by<br />
sinusoidal current shape below 1 by most control<br />
strategies, 2- sensitivity to the disturbance of the<br />
input voltage systems.<br />
There are two main concepts of MC control<br />
strategies: the first based on low frequency transfer<br />
matrix (for example: scalar [20] control strategy or<br />
control strategy proposed by Venturini [1], [2]) and<br />
the second based on currents and voltages space<br />
vector (SV) representations (for example direct [5]-<br />
[11] or indirect [3] space vector control strategy).<br />
A direct space vector modulation (SVM) does not<br />
need fictitious DC link or addition of the third-<br />
harmonic as in other common MC control strategies.<br />

Maximal voltage transfer ratio for this strategy is<br />
0,866. Furthermore control of the input power<br />
factor is realized regardless of the output power<br />
factor [5]-[10]. Because of those advantages the<br />
strategy (after some modifications) will be<br />
implemented in Matrix Reactance Frequency<br />
Converters (MRFC). The converters have been<br />
studied by Professor Fedyczak’s team at the<br />
University of Zielona Góra. Implementation of the<br />
SVM for MRFC is going to be a part of the author’s<br />
PhD work. MRFC is based on a unipolar PWM AC<br />
matrix reactance choppers (MRC), description of the<br />
MRFC family (9 topologies) is included in [15] and<br />
[16]. In MRFC both a frequency change and the<br />
buck-boost load voltage conversion are possible<br />
[12]-[19].<br />
This paper presents project as well as simulation<br />
and experimental tests results of the MC control<br />
circuit with implemented direct (SVM) and four-step<br />
current commutation control strategy. Presented<br />
control circuit is going to be a part of the MRFC<br />
with modified direct SVM.<br />
Next section contains description of the matrix<br />
converter and it’s control circuit. Basing on [5]-[8]<br />
and [11] implemented control and commutation<br />
strategy is described in section 3. In section 4 some<br />
simulation and experimental test results are shown.<br />
Conclusion follows in the last section.<br />

MC can theoretically assume 512 (2 9) switching<br />
configurations (SC) but because of commutation<br />
lows there are only 27 SC permitted among which 21<br />
SC (18 active and 3 zero), are engaged in direct SVM<br />
[3]-[8]. Geometrical interpretations of those 21 SC<br />
are shown in fig. 3.<br />

The geometrical interpretations of the space-<br />

voltages (uaN, ubN, ucN) and input line currents (iA, iB,<br />

according to (3) are shown in fig.3. Furthermore<br />
numbers of the sectors (Si, So) between those<br />
vectors are introduced [7].<br />
Because of MC complexity its control and<br />
commutation strategy is complicated and demands<br />
advanced hardware solutions. That is why presented<br />
control circuit consists of two DSP processors<br />
(ADSP 21368), three A/D converters and a FPGA<br />
circuit (fig. 1). Basic specifications data for those<br />
components are collected in table 1. Using this<br />
control circuit instantaneous space- vector<br />
representations of the source currents are calculated.<br />

Based on those calculations proper switching<br />
sequence can be found to form desired load voltage<br />
vector. This process will be described in detail in the<br />
next section.<br />

3. Control and commutation strategy<br />
Functional schema of the implemented control<br />
and commutation strategy and tasks division for<br />
control circuit components are shown in fig. 4.<br />
Because of MC source currents distortion their space<br />
vector representation ii is determined basing on<br />
measured source phase voltages. The way in with
source currents vector position is define, based upon<br />
source voltages vector position (calculated according<br />
to (3)) is shown in fig. 6b. Load voltages space<br />
vector uo, with desired amplitude and angular<br />
velocity ωout, is also calculated according to (3). In<br />
the next step according to fig. 3 previously calculated<br />
ii and uo positions allows sector numbers S0, Si and<br />
phase angels α’0, β’i to be identified. It has to be<br />
mentioned that phase angels α’0, β’i are defined with<br />
respect to bisecting line of suitable sector, limited<br />
according to (4) and differ then α0, βi (fig. 3, fig. 6)<br />

sectors and signs of the on-time ratios, according to<br />
table 2 and 3 four active and one zero SC are<br />
selected. Switched-on times for selected SC are<br />

Selected switching configurations (vectors) are<br />
turned on according to the sequence described by<br />
(11), where for example ½δ3 means that SC selected<br />
according to above described principles and assigned<br />
in table 2 to δ3 must be switched on as the first one<br />
for the time ½t3. This switching pattern was achieved<br />
by comparison of the modulation waves with saw<br />
wave as it is shown in fig. 5. As a result of this<br />
comparison during every switching period Tseq local<br />
duty cycles d0-d4 for individual transistors are<br />
worked out.<br />

In fig. 6 there is an example how vector uo, which<br />
represents instantaneous values of the load phase<br />
voltages, and vector ii, which represents<br />
instantaneous values of the source currents is<br />
formed. .Vector u0 is set up of two components u’0<br />
and u’’0 , which are created by switching on earlier<br />
selected vectors (in ex. 7, 16, 21, 6, 1) through<br />
suitable times (9), (10) during the cycle period.<br />

Bidirectional switch S cB (T cB1 ,T cB2) cannot be<br />
switched on in the same time when S cC (T cC1 ,T cC2) is<br />
switched off because of the finite turn-on and turnoff<br />
times. In such switch state short-circuit or<br />
overvoltage can occur which can cause<br />
semiconductor damage. To avoid such switch states<br />
in presented control circuit a four step current<br />
commutation strategy is implemented. In fig. 7b an<br />
exemplary commutation diagram between SBc and<br />
SCb is shown. In fig. 8a transition diagram which<br />
presents how this commutation strategy is realized in<br />
FPGA (fig. 1, fig. 4) is shown.<br />

Simulation and experimental tests results of the MC<br />
prototype controlled by the described control circuit<br />
are shown in fig. 10- 18. In fig. 10 an example of the<br />
generated by FPGA transistors control signals<br />
(during commutation process) time waveforms are<br />
shown. Voltage and current time waveforms, for<br />
three desired first harmonic load voltage frequencies<br />

has to be mentioned that input power factor for<br />
those waveforms is corrected to value 1 thanks to<br />
proper control. In fig. 13- 15 voltage and current<br />
time waveforms with desired displacement between<br />
source current and voltage (input power factor) with<br />

From fig. 10-14 it can be seen that control circuit in<br />
contest make possible of the matrix converter output<br />
voltage amplitude and frequency change also input<br />
power factor (displacement between source currents<br />
and voltages) can be controlled. In fig 16-18 static<br />
characteristics of the controlled converter are shown.<br />

5. Conclusions<br />
In this paper the project of the control<br />
circuit of MC with implemented space vector<br />
modulation and four step commutation strategy has<br />
been presented. Simulation and experimental tests<br />
results have confirmed that the presented control<br />
technique exploits the MC’s possibility to control the<br />
input power factor regardless of the output power<br />
factor. In addition frequency and amplitude of the<br />
output voltage can be controlled. Implementation of<br />
the direct space vector modulation and four step<br />
current commutation strategies for Matrix-<br />
Reactance Frequency converter will be the subject of<br />
investigation in the near future.<br />
