Abstract
The output voltages of the variable voltage and variable frequency voltage source is not a pure sine wave and so is the output current from variable frequency current source. If the induction motor is fed by these inverters odd harmonics would be seen in the input supply of the induction motor which leads to the impure nature of the sine wave. This lead to the additional loses of the machine which reduces the efficiency and causes de-rating of the motor. It can be overcome by the use of matrix converter as its main attribute is pure sine wave as an output. The regeneration ability and four quadrant operation of the matrix converter makes it superior then other inverter drives.
