Abstract


In this systematic review paper, the similarities and the differences between the combination of multilevel inverter (MI) and matrix converter (MC) of power electronics types are discussed. First, a brief definition of multilevel, matrix, inverter and converter are presented. Then, the classification of MIs, MCs, and a combination of MI and MC are shown using landscape taxonomy classifications. This paper focuses on research articles that have the keywords ‘multilevel’ and ‘matrix’ from four common databases, namely, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Science Direct, Web of Science and Springer, for the last six years. The same query keywords are used in all databases. Those databases are nearly sufficient to set the study directions of MIs and MCs. The combination of the multilevel and matrix is necessary to have both circuit advantages. Usually, the matrix structure is used for sharing purpose and the multilevel structure is used to increase the power quality of the signal. Finally, many future research gaps are presented after comparing the MI, MC and multilevel MC, as well as the manner in which these research gaps can be classified based on power electronics devices.
