AC–AC Modular Multilevel Converter—Hexverter
Energies, 2022 This article proposes the study, control and analysis of the topology of an AC–AC modular multilevel converter, known in the literature as the Hexverter. The Hexverter is capable of converting the energy between two AC systems with a reduced number of elements, if compared with other modular multilevel topologies, which makes this topology attractive ...

Distributed Control for a Modular Multilevel Converter [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, 2018 Conventional centralized control strategies may reduce the flexibility and expandability of a modular multilevel converter (MMC) system. To tackle this issue, this paper proposes a distributed control architecture that is capable of assigning certain control tasks to distributed local controllers and improves the modularity of an MMC system.
