Problems solved by technology

However, when this method is used in practice, additional upper and lower bridge arm energy balance controllers must be configured, otherwise the system will easily diverge.
The energy balance controller of the upper and lower bridge arms requires complex PI parameter design
In addition, some scholars started from the sub-module level, combined with the carrier phase-shift pulse width modulation method, assigned a carrier to each sub-module, and changed the carrier amplitude of the module in real time through the capacitor voltage of the module, thus correcting the module in each sub-module. The input duty cycle within a carrier cycle, but this method is only applicable to the situation where each module is attached with a dedicated capacitor voltage equalization controller, and cannot be used in the more general case of capacitor voltage equalization control based on bridge arm capacitor voltage sorting. application

Abstract

The invention discloses a modulation method for reducing the low-order harmonics of the AC voltage of a modular multilevel converter (MMC). The actual measurement value of the voltage calculates and changes the amplitude range of the carrier wave in real time, thereby correcting the modulation result of the bridge arm and reducing the low-frequency harmonics of the MMC AC voltage caused by the capacitor voltage fluctuation. Compared with the existing modulation method, the modulation method proposed by the present invention takes into account the influence of the module capacitor voltage fluctuation on the AC output voltage, and equivalently corrects the bridge arm switching function by changing the carrier amplitude, so it can significantly reduce the voltage caused by the capacitor voltage fluctuation. Low-order harmonic problems caused by AC voltage.
