Distributed Control for a Modular Multilevel Converter [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE 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.

AC-Side Impedance-Based Stability Assessment in Grid-Forming Modular Multilevel Converters

open access: yesIEEE Access
Grid-forming converters can emulate the behavior of a synchronous generator through frequency droop control. The stability of grid-forming modular multilevel converters can be studied via the impedance-based stability criterion. This paper presents an ac-
