Arm-Sensorless Sub-Module Voltage Estimation and Balancing of Modular Multilevel Converters
IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 2020Modular multilevel converters (MMCs) have established their position as the choice of next-generation high voltage converters. These converters, however, require a bulk number of sensors in each phase for sub-modules (SMs) voltage balancing.

The Multilevel Modular DC Converter
IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, 2013The modular multilevel converter (M2C) has become an increasingly important topology in medium- and high-voltage applications. A limitation is that it relies on positive and negative half-cycles of the ac output voltage waveform to achieve charge balance on the submodule capacitors.

Capacitor monitoring for modular multilevel converters
IECON 2017 - 43rd Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2017The modular multilevel converter (MMC) is attractive for medium-or high-power applications because of the advantages of its high modularity, availability, and high power quality. Reliability is one of the most important challenges for the MMC consisting of a large number of submodules (SMs).

Internal Faults in Modular Multilevel Converter
2018 IEEE International Conference on Power Electronics, Drives and Energy Systems (PEDES), 2018The Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) has modular and redundant structure, which makes it more reliable during certain fault conditions. Hence MMC technology has received considerable attention among various topologies for interconnecting High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) grid.

Synchronous Control of Modular Multilevel Converters
Proceedings of the IEEE International Symposium on Industrial Electronics ISIE-02, 2002A novel method of direct synchronous pulsewidth modulation (PWM) is applied for control of modular multilevel converters consisting from three standard triphase inverter modules along with an 0.33 p.u. output transformer. The proposed method provides synchronisation of the voltage waveforms for each module and the composed voltage at the output of the ...
