Abstract :
This paper investigates the use of a matrix converter for the sensorless position control of a surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous machine using high frequency injection. The matrix converter has almost zero dead time, which means that behaves almost like an ideal power converter and achieves better results than the conventional voltage source inverter. A comparison of the sensorless technique proposed using both converters is made
