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 …

The paper proposes a short circuit fault tolerant system for the conventional Matrix Converter
(MC) to increase the immune capability of the MC against short circuit fault. In this paper, the …

Background Many faults occur in the modular multi-level converters (MMCs), including
unbalancing capacitor voltage, lower and upper arm unbalancing, the line to line voltage …

The modular multilevel matrix converter (M3C) is a topology that can realize direct ac-to-ac
power conversion. To increase the reliability of the M3C, submodule (SM) fault ride-through …

This paper proposes a fault-tolerant matrix converter with reconfigurable structure and
modified switch control schemes, along with a fault diagnosis technique for open-circuited …

Despite numerous research efforts in matrix converter-based drives, a study of fault-tolerant
topology and control strategy for a matrix converter drive has not been presented in the …

This paper presents a simple fault detection method and fault-tolerant strategy based on the
model predictive control theory. The proposed fault detection method can detect and locate …

In addition to its modular nature, a Hybrid Modular Multilevel Converter (HMMC) assembled
from half-bridge and full-bridge sub-modules, is able to block DC faults with a minimum …

Modular multilevel converter (MMC) is widely used in medium to high power applications.
One of the significant features that an MMC can provide is the fault tolerant operation, which …

This paper proposes a fault diagnosis system for inverters based on a cerebellar model
articulation controller (CMAC). First, a three-level T-type inverter was implemented and used …
