Modulation Control
A number of modulation strategies have been proposed. All of them allow flexible control with the following features:
Continuous control of output voltage amplitude from zero up to a maximum limit (typically 87% of input) Continuous control of output frequency up to a maximum feasible limit of approximately 1/10 of the switching frequency Control of input displacement factor: unity, leading and lagging regardless of output power factor
DC-AC and AC-DC conversion is an inherent feature by setting either the input or output frequency to zero
Switch Configurations
Back to Back Switch
Can Control Direction of Current Flow within each Switch
Useful (required) for most current commutation strategies
Common Emitter
Pair of switching devices arranged with emitters connected Both devices can be gated from the same isolated power supply
Common Collector

Motor
To design and build an Integrated Electro Mechanical Actuator (EMA) intended as a technology demonstrator for a rudder actuator on a large, twin-engined, civil aircraft.
Need to continuously deploy rudder under some flight conditions drives thermal design (stationary motor with high torque) Natural cooling considered

Matrix converters are a reality Matrix converters can be constructed at 100kW+ Matrix converters are interesting for aerospace applications
Potential for high power density Power quality
New devices and device technology (Silicon Carbide, reverse blocking IGBTs?) will increase attractiveness Research now needs to be applications focussed
Continue better understanding of application issues Optimised design Realise potential
