Feed-forward Space Vector Modulation for Single-Phase Multilevel Cascade Converters with any DC voltage ratio [PDF]
Modulation techniques for multilevel converters can create distorted output voltages and currents if the DC link voltages are unbalanced. This situation can be avoided if the instantaneous DC voltage error is not taken into account in the modulation ...

Modular multilevel converter losses model for HVdc applications [PDF]
Multi-terminal high voltage dc (HVdc) grids can eventually became a feasible solution to transport energy to remote and/ or distant areas and its exploitation depend, among other things, on the performance of the converter terminals.

Modular Multilevel Converter DC Fault Protection [PDF]
High voltage direct current grids will require the development of dc protections that provide fast fault isolation and minimize the disturbance caused to the existing ac power networks. This paper investigates how the dc fault recovery performance of a half-bridge modular multilevel converter (HB-MMC) is impacted by different dc protection design ...
