Abstract

The performance of a Three-Phase Matrix Converter (TPMC) under various fault conditions is simulated and examined in this research. The proposed high-frequency converter offers a compact and efficient alternative to conventional 50 Hz solid-state transformers (SSTs) by virtue of its capacity to increase or decrease the output frequency. The Three-Phase Matrix Converter allows power to flow in both directions and removes the need for large DC cables. The TPMC is controlled by Space Vector Modulation (SVM), and a single-phase matrix converter is compared using Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM). A fault detection system is included to monitor and respond to abnormal conditions, such as open-circuit and short-circuit faults. MATLAB/SIMULINK is used to develop and verify the system, and the outcomes confirm that the converter and filter design work well in both ideal and flawed scenarios. This study is simulation-based, serving as a foundational step toward future experimental validation.
