eng Alternative utilisation of a matrix converter The matrix converter seems to be the final name of one of the older static direct frequency changer power electronics circuit configuration, which finds once again new utilisation. This switch topology has the cycloconverter advantage of lacking a dc link, and hence lacks an energy store, while offering a potentially unlimited frequency range. The presented paper deals with the recent concept of hybrid and power splitting traction drive systems, whereas a special attention is paid to electric power splitting. In the investigated system a traction induction motor is employed, and the matrix converter realised on the base of new progressive semiconductor devices is used to treat the electrically transmitted part of the whole drive energy.
