Abstract: This paper a new technique of converter called matrix converter which supplies the induction motor for a smooth operation. Conventionally, the different type of multi-level inverters is used to feed the induction motor which is used in EVs where there are lot of torque ripples in the machine. Replacing the Multi-level inverters with a matrix converter, there is a very smooth operation under load and no-load conditions. The simulation results of the method are presented.
