PWM Control and Experiment of Modular Multilevel Converters
IEEJ Transactions on Industry Applications, 2008 A modular multilevel converter (MMC) is one of the next-generation multilevel PWM converters intended for high- or medium-voltage power conversion without transformers. The MMC consists of cascade connection of multiple bidirectional PWM chopper-cells and floating dc capacitors per leg, thus requiring voltage-balancing control of their chopper-cells ...
