Abstract :
This paper presents an analysis and comprehensive comparison between the passive filter component requirements of a matrix converter and a DC-link based back-to-back converter. Proper design of the filter components requires the estimation of the switching frequency components present in various voltages and currents. An accurate estimation of different ripple quantities is presented by simple analytical expressions and verified by MATLAB/Simulink simulations. The filters are designed and a quantitative comparison of the passive components is done.
