The Matrix converters (MCs) are widely used in a large number of applications such as Aircraft, Submarines, and AC drives. In these applications, because of the many chances of occurrence of a critical fault that leads to a halt of the system, and due to the failure of power electric switches, the MC operations can be compromised and there is a fear of burning of the components caused by the whole system shutdown. Therefore, a Fault-Tolerant Control System (FTCS) is extremely necessary for the continued operations of the Three-Phase Matrix Converter (TPMC) to improve the reliability and productivity of the system under faulty conditions. In this paper, an advanced FTCS is proposed based on detection, and dual hardware redundancy for TPMC. Two types of faults are injected into the system to observe the performance of the proposed system: internal open circuit faults on switches and external short circuit faults …
