Problems solved by technology

[0005] The present invention aims at the problem that the output voltage and current waveform quality of the existing NLM and PWM mixed modulation strategy is poor under medium and low cascade number sub-modules, and proposes an improved modulation method based on NLM and PWM mixed modulation, so that each With limited n sub-modules and without changing the average voltage of the sub-module capacitors and increasing the carrier frequency, the bridge arm doubles the level of the output voltage, which can overcome the disadvantage of a small number of medium-voltage MMC modules. The harmonic distortion rate of the output voltage and current can be significantly reduced under the medium and low cascade number sub-modules

Abstract

The invention discloses an improved modulation method based on NLM and PWM hybrid modulation, and the method is characterized in that the method achieves the voltage sharing of the capacitor voltage of a sub-module through employing a sorting algorithm for n-1 sub-modules of a modular multilevel converter, so as to achieve the optimal approximation to a fundamental wave; meanwhile, a sub-module isintroduced into each of the upper bridge arm and the lower bridge arm of the MMC to work in a high-frequency PWM mode, and the PWM carriers of the upper bridge arm and the lower bridge arm adopt thesame carrier. According to the invention, the harmonic distortion rate of the output phase voltage and phase current can be significantly reduced, the output electric energy quality is higher, the complex carrier generation and additional closed-loop voltage balance control are not needed, and the method has the advantages of simple control, low cost and easy realization.

Background technique [0002] As a new type of multilevel topology, modular multilevel converter (MMC) has a series of advantages such as high modularity, good redundancy, high efficiency, and convenient capacity increase. In medium-voltage and large-capacity converters, such as medium-voltage motor drive, new energy power generation grid connection; static synchronous reactive power compensation device and other fields, it has shown wider application value and better development prospects. [0003] The ideal modulation method of a modular multilevel converter (MMC) should satisfy: the harmonic distortion rate of the modulated output waveform is as low as possible; for switching devices, the switc...
