The problem of submodule switching frequency reduction in half‐bridge modular multilevel converters (HB‐MMCs) with capacitor voltage self‐balancing control is considered and explored in this paper. A selection principle of submodule switching state vectors is proposed based on the voltage self‐balancing switching state matrix, aiming to lower submo...
Abstract In recent years, the modular multi‐level converter (MMC) has been widely used in high and medium voltage DC transmission systems because of its topological advantages. However, for an MMC with a two‐stage model predictive control (TSMPC) method, it is difficult to precisely and reasonably design the weighting factor in the cost function. H...
A microgrid may be subjected to various unexpected events, such as sudden tripping of a generator/load, line outages due to faults, sudden switching of large capacitor banks, etc. Detection and classification of events play an essential role in the reliable operation, control, and restoration of microgrids. Due to low observability in microgrids, a...
This paper presents a method for switching reduction in cascaded H-bridge converters. Given the wide applicability of this topology, it would be especially desirable to increase its efficiency with switching losses reduction techniques. Since this type of converter requires voltage balancing methods, several modulation methods consider the possibil...
