Abstract
- This paper presents an enhanced independent pole control scheme for hybrid modular multilevel converter based on a full-bridge submodule and half-bridge submodule. A detailed analysis of the power distribution between upper and lower arms under asymmetrical dc pole voltages is presented. It is found that the fundamental ac currents in the upper and lower arms are asymmetrical. To enable operation under asymmetrical dc pole voltages, an enhanced independent pole control scheme is proposed. The controller is composed of two dc control loops, two ac control loops, and circulating current suppression control based on current injection. Six modulation indices are presented to independently control the upper and lower arms. With this controller, the dc voltage operating region is significantly extended. To ride through a pole-to-ground dc fault without bringing dc bias at the neutral point of the interface transformer, a pole-to-ground dc fault ride through strategy is proposed. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed control scheme are verified by simulation results using PSCAD/EMTDC. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
