【 摘 要 】

This paper discusses the effects of different space vector modulation (SVM) hexagon partition on common mode voltage suppression at high modulation index and presents an improved capacitor voltage balance strategy for multilevel matrix converter. Matrix converter is a compact designed converter which allows direct AC–AC power transfer without an intermediate DC link. Multilevel matrix converters, which utilises a multilevel structure on a traditional matrix converter, expand these characters to high-voltage and high-power situations. This paper is concerned with SVM of three-level matrix converter and concentrates on the comparison between different hexagon partitions; the improved balancing strategy is employed to improve the performance of flying capacitor voltage control. Simulation from Matlab/Simulink and results from a small-scale experimental prototype are presented to validate the theoretical results.
