Alternative drive solution with matrix converter fed permanent magnet synchronous motor

The paper presents study of a drive system with matrix converter fed permanent magnet synchronous motor. In the control system is implemented a rotor-oriented vector control and a space vector modulation of output currents. The system simulation, experimental test results and comparison of both are presented. The main aim is to show a drive system with a matrix converter as an alternative solution of drive system with precise control for application in robotics.
