Problems solved by technology

However, model predictive control needs to evaluate all possible future states of the system in each control cycle, so the optimization calculation of the control process is very large, and the switching frequency is high
And when there are many switch combinations and constraints in the system, the amount of calculation will increase exponentially

Abstract

The invention provides a general control method for a modular multilevel converter based on model predictive control, and relates to the technical field of flexible direct current transmission. The method is as follows: Step 1: Obtain the model predictive control set W of the three-phase lower bridge arm output voltage in the next cycle according to the output voltage of the three-phase lower bridge arm in the current cycle and the constraint conditions; Step 2: Calculate each The current cost function of various output voltages to obtain the current cost set G; Step 3: Select three voltage output modes with the smallest current cost in the set G; Step 4: Calculate the capacitor voltage cost function and switch cost function of different switching schemes; Step 5: Calculate the total cost function of each sub-module switching scheme, retain the sub-module switching scheme corresponding to the minimum total cost, and generate switching signals to control the switching of each sub-module of the modular multilevel converter. The method reduces the amount of optimization calculation by reducing the size of the control set, reduces the capacitor voltage fluctuation, and reduces the switching frequency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of flexible direct current transmission, in particular to a general control method for modular multilevel converters based on model predictive control. Background technique [0002] Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) has the characteristics of no commutation failure, independent adjustment of active and reactive power, easy modular configuration, low harmonic level, and power supply to passive systems. , has been widely used in the field of HVDC transmission. However, how to use a simpler and faster method to control the output current while balancing the capacitor voltage has become a difficult point in various control methods. [0003] Model predictive control is characterized by fast dynamic response, strong robustness and multi-objective control without linearization. It is a nonlinear optimal control method. With the development and application of microprocessors, model predictive control is gradually...
