Mathematical Modeling of Current Source Matrix Converter with Venturini and SVM

The study of Current Source Matrix Converter (CSMC) static properties using the averaged state-space method for two modulation strategies Venturini and Space Vector Modulation (SVM) is the subject of this article. The converter properties for both modulation strategies have been examined and compared. The modeling approach based on the averaged state space method presented in this paper is relatively simple and requires only a small number of mathematical transformations. The averaged set equation is obtained directly from the three-phase schematic circuit, taking into account the sequences of switching patterns and modulation strategies. All the obtained results have confirmed that CSMC has some interesting properties, such as buck-boost output voltage regulation unlike the classic Matrix Converter (MC), in which the maximum voltage gain is 0.866.
