This paper presents a closed-loop voltage controlled single phase matrix converter (VCSPMC) with boost characteristic and low total harmonics distortion (THD) that complies with the IEEE Standards 519-1992 and 1159-1995. The VCSPMC possesses higher output voltage compared to the input voltage which is 12Vrms with both THD at the input and the output of the VCSPMC reduced to below than 5%. This VCSPMC is controlled by a voltage sensor that measures its output voltage and is compared with a reference voltage of 15Vrms. The proposed method is based on simulation done using MATLAB/Simulink and is experimentally verified. © 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved.
