The matrix converter rectifier is an AC-to-DC converter that can be considered for emerging applications, related to smart grids and renewable energy production. The most attractive characteristics of this converter are the simultaneous control of the input power factor and the output voltage, and the small volume of the input capacitors. In this paper, after a small review of the modulation techniques, several modulation strategies are experimentally compared in terms of power losses and THD of input and output currents.

Abstract
The matrix converter rectifier is an AC-to-DC converter that can be considered for emerging applications, related to smart grids and renewable energy production. The most attractive characteristics of this converter are the simultaneous control of the input power factor and the output voltage, and the small volume of the input capacitors. In this paper, after a small review of the modulation techniques, several modulation strategies are experimentally compared in terms of power losses and THD of input and output currents.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
