摘要
This paper evaluates two different concepts for the control of the modular multilevel converter (MMC). Generally aiming at medium voltage applications, the considered MMC topology has a low number of submodules, and a pulse-width modulation (PWM) scheme is applied. A model predictive control (MPC) algorithm is developed and experimentally compared to a cascaded control scheme based on conventional PI controllers, which has been proposed by Hagiwara and Akagi. Steady-state and dynamic system performance as well as computational power requirements are discussed. The basis for the comparison is a scaled converter test bench operating from 560-V dc voltage.
