Multi-stage power conversion using matrix converter for solid state transformer technology

The traditional power transformer typically operated at low frequency with the bulky size either working with step-down voltage or step-up voltage in power system. Aiming to reduce the size of this transformer structure, the solid-state transformer (SST) is suggested. In brief, SST is an ac-to-ac po...
