Generalized Voltage-based State-Space Modelling of Modular Multilevel Converters with Constant Equilibrium in Steady-State [PDF]
This paper demonstrates that the sum and difference of the upper and lower arm voltages are suitable variables for deriving a generalized state-space model of an MMC which settles at a constant equilibrium in steady-state operation, while including the ...

Impact of Digital Control Delay on Stability of Grid-Following Converters
In a digital controlled system, the delay is inevitable. It will change the phase-frequency characteristics of the system, which will affect the stability. This paper analyzes the configuration of the grid-following converter and builds its small-signal model in detail.

Grid–Following DVI–Based Converter Operating in Weak Grids for Enhancing Frequency Stability [PDF]
Inertia requirement is the paramount challenge in future power systems with a significant share of renewable energy generators. A promising solution to this issue is applying Distributed Virtual Inertia (DVI) concept, i.e. releasing energy preserved in the dc-link capacitors of employed power converters in the grid following a frequency disturbance ...

Tuning Method of a Grid-Following Converter for the Extremely-Weak-Grid Connection [PDF]
This paper proves that a grid-following converter can stably connect to a weak grid even short-circuit ratio (SCR) is 1. Root instability causes of this grid-following control are identified including fast control response, insufficient damping, and slow voltage support.
