摘要
The Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) represents an emerging topology with a scalable technology making high voltage and power capability possible. The MMC is built up by identical, but individually controllable submodules. Therefore the converter can act as a controllable voltage source, with a large number of available discrete voltage steps. This characteristic complicates the modelling both mathematically and computational. A mathematical model of the MMC is presented with the aim to develop a converter control system and the model is converted into the dq reference frame. Block diagrams for control of active power and AC voltage magnitude are shown. (C) 2012 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
