This paper proposes a control strategy for a matrix converter and voltage type inverter in a parallel system that does not require of interconnection reactors. The proposed control strategy is to divide the operation time between a matrix converter and a voltage type inverter. The operation time of each converter is divided in every carrier cycle. As a result, interconnection reactors are not required and the sinusoidal input current waveform of a matrix converter can be obtained. The total output voltage of the proposed system and the output power division ratio for a matrix converter and a voltage type inverter are controlled by the time division ratio of each converter. Furthermore, the voltage error resulting from the operation of time division control was analyzed and compensated.
The availability of the proposed system and the validity of the proposed control method are confirmed by experimental results.
