Abstract—The modular multilevel converter (MMC) is one of the most commonly used power electronic converters in medium and high-power applications. However, reliability is one of the most critical challenges because of the…
Abstract—Recently, the nested neutral point clamped (NNPC) converter has been developed for medium voltage applications. This converter has been considered for its desirable properties, such as application in a wide range of…
Abstract—Modular multilevel converters (MMCs) play an essential role in power conversion for medium and high voltage industrial applications. These types of converters use many sensors for the process of measuring and sorting…
Abstract – In this paper, the combination of a new capacitor voltages sorting method as well as an open-loop control method based on arms energy estimation in the modular multilevel converter (MMC)…
