Abstract
This article presents simulation studies of Sparse Matrix Converter (SMC). Compared to the standard Indirect Matrix Converter (IMC), the SMC topology uses fewer semiconductor elements, witch reduces cost of the converter. The Space Vector Modulation (SVM) is used to control each of the switches. The results of the conducted tests are waveform of output voltages and input currents of the converters. The determined spectrum of harmonic waveforms confirms the correct operation of the designed converter model and presents the percentage content of higher harmonics. The SMC topology meet the assumptions related to matrix converters, while using fewer number of semiconductor elements.
