Abstract: In this research work, space vector modulated control of Matrix Converter (MC) topology is utilized with Squirrel Cage Induction Generator (SCIG) [1] for wind power generation systems [2]. The SCIG stator frequency is suitably tuned in order to achieve active power flow into the grid. In the newly introduced topology, a gearless wind energy conversion system [10] is brought into use. The MC functions as an interface between the grid and SCIG. Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) mechanism [3] is used for controlling the MC switches. The stator and grid voltage, current waveforms and its THD spectrum are evaluated [9] by making use of the Matlab/Simulink software.
