The indirect matrix converter is a two-stage converter without using an intermediate bulky energy storage component between the rectifier side and the inverter side. An induction machine is connected to the inverter side and model predictive based indirect field-oriented control is adopted. To control the rectifier side with the unity input power factor, a current-controlled predictive approach in the dq-frame is used. To mitigate the unwanted harmonics in grid current, an active damping technique without requiring the selection of optimum value for fictitious damping resistor is also included in the proposed control scheme. The cost function just employs current terms for controlling input and output, and no weighting factor is required since all the terms are in the same nature and identical ranges. The presented control technique provides a good driving for the induction machine and unity input power factor with low THD for the grid side.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessindirect matrix converterinduction machine drivingmodel predictive controlactive dampingConference Object10.1109/EPEC48502.2020.93200322-s2.0-85100831410N/AWOS:000652334400046N/A
