Research on matrix converter control multi-phase PMSM for all electric ship

Matrix Converter (MC) will be widely used for the ship electric propulsion drives system with the development of the power electronic technology. A new matrix converter topology has been designed for the dual-three-phase PMSM in this paper. This topology has six phase input and overcomes the standard matrix converter disadvantage. Some control methodologies have also been researched on. By simulation and experiment, Designed matrix converter and control method are feasible and have high efficiency.
