Research
Dr McGrath ’s research addresses fundamental questions concerning the modulation and control of power electronic conversion systems. He has made a significant contribution to the understanding of multilevel converters, including the fundamental modulation principles and dynamic control problems such as natural balancing mechanisms. Particular research interests include:

Modulation theory for power electronic systems.
Advanced converter topologies, such as multilevel and current-fed converters.
High performance closed loop control and dynamic modelling of power electronic systems.
Power electronic applications, including motor drives, DC-DC converters for battery chargers and grid connected inverters.
