This paper presents the experimental evaluation of matrix converter (MC) for wind energy conversion system, where space vector pulse width modulation is used to enhance the performance of the system under various abnormal conditions like abrupt change in wind speed, disconnection from grid, misfire in the converter etc. The control system is implemented on a dSPACE DS1104 real time board. Selective experimental results are presented using a laboratory 1.2 kW prototype of WECS to demonstrate the resulting improvements of the developed system under abnormal conditions.
