Predictive Control Applied to Matrix Converters: A Systematic Literature Review

Abstract

Power electronic devices play an important role in energy conversion. Among the options, matrix converters, in combination with predictive control, represent a good alternative for the power conversion stage. Although several reviews have been undertaken on this topic, they have been conducted in a non-systematic manner, without indicating how the studies considered were chosen. This paper presents results from a systematic literature review on predictive control applied to matrix converters that included 142 primary papers, which were selected after applying a defined protocol with clear inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study provides a detailed classification of predictive control methods and strategies applied to different matrix converter topologies. Research findings require to be understood in combination to develop a common understanding of the topic and ensure that future research effort is based on solid premises. In light of this, this study identifies and characterizes different predictive control techniques and matrix converter topologies through systematic literature review. The results of the review indicate that interest in the area is increasing. A number of open questions in the field are discussed.

Improvements the direct torque control performance for an induction machine using fuzzy logic controller

“…Traditional direct control and fuzzy logic direct control, as shown in Figures 14 and 15, also maintain a stable stator flux, albeit with some variations due to control parameter adjustments. For stator currents, all control techniques, as shown in Figures 16,17,and 18, effectively regulate the currents to meet operational requirements. However, fuzzy logic direct control demonstrates better suppression of current harmonics by dynamically adjusting control parameters to minimize disturbances.…”

“…Moreover, DTC eliminates proportional-integral (PI) control loops, thereby enhancing dynamic performance and mitigating issues caused by proportional-integral regulator saturation. This enables DTC to achieve fast and accurate torque response, facilitating high-efficiency operation [18], [19].…”

Investigations into Higher-Frequency Hysteresis Current Controller for Supraharmonic Hybrid Active Filters

“…From Figure 1, the input current is composed of active and reactive powers and the harmonics, as shown in Equation (2). These supraharmonics are propagated into the power system due to the discontinuous currents of the MC [26][27][28][29]. Table 2 shows the reviewed literature on the topic.…”

Voltage and frequency control of microgrid in presence of micro-turbine interfaced to matrix converter

“…The set-points in ( 17) and ( 18) act as a virtual communication agent for different MCs and autonomous operation. The d-component of the output voltage is used in (20); as per the voltage-oriented control, the reference of the output voltage magnitude is aligned with the d -axis of the MC reference frame. To provide close voltage regulation, MC output voltage control is adopted.…”
