Abstract-
This paper will investigate the use of a three-to-one Matrix
converter to synchronize the electrical energy and condition the
output of the wind generator. A Matrix converter is a direct ACAC
solution, removing the need for large smoothing capacitors in a
typical rectifier/inverter solution. This paper will briefly review
the Matrix converter operational theory. A simulation and the
practical results of a three-to-one phase matrix converter for
varying input frequencies are also presented. The conclusion
shows that the proposal is a viable solution for small power wind
harvesting.
