Abstract
Induction motors are AC electric motors are the most widely used. Induction motor speed control can be done with some type of converter. However, not all types of converters can produce a great efficiency in terms of induction motor speed control. Matrix converter with venturini modultion may be a suitable option for the efficient speed control system with scalar control. Modulation switching of matrix converter was designed by Venturini. Therefore in this study MATLAB Simulink simulations to test the use modulation on matrix converter switching is Venturini method. Given this research is expected induction motor speed regulation can be more efficient in its application in the industrial world.
