Six-phase Induction Motor Speed Control using a dual Three-Phase Direct Matrix Converter and Predictive Control

In this work, we present the speed control of a sixphase induction machine, employing an inner loop predictive current control based on the model, powered by a matrix converter. This system aims to harness the advantages offered by multi-phase systems and matrix converters, utilizing their multimodular topology in three-phase modules. We showcase the design of the proposed control strategy and the analysis of the results obtained in the simulation environment in terms of current and machine speed tracking.
