Model Predictive Control With Common-Mode Voltage Injection for Modular Multilevel Converter
Abstract
Submodule (SM) capacitor voltage ripple is one of the major concerns in modular multilevel converters (MMCs). Capacitor voltage ripple leads to the double-frequency circulating current (CC) in legs, thereby resulting in a cascading effect of increased peak value of the arm current, semiconductor device stress, and power losses in MMCs. In this study, a model predictive control (MPC) with common-mode voltage (CMV) injection is proposed to …
