Optimal Linear Control of Modular Multi-Level Converters with a Prescribed Degree of Stability

Abstract

In this paper, a new control approach using an optimal linear control with prescribed degree of stability for modular multi-level converters (MMC) is presented and analyzed. The proposed controller relies on a linear quadratic regulator with integral action which brings the ability of state variable reference tracking for modular multi-level converters. Since MMC is a complex system with several state variables, a unified control system design for this system is vital. The proposed controller of this study is designed to obtain wider stability margin thanks to the implementation of prescribed degree of stability concept to minimize the quadratic performance index of the control structure. By means of this method, the poles of the closed-loop system will be shifted to the desired places in the left half side of the S-plane. The main advantages of this control strategy compared to previous methods are that it will be possible to control the state of energy for each phase separately, while there will be superior tolerance to nonlinearities and the enhanced stability margin with less sensitivity to plant-parameter variations. The performance of the designed controller is verified through MATLAB^TM simulations (The MathWorks, Natick, MA, USA) with the nonlinear model of MMC.

Input series output parallel based multi-modular boost half bridge DC-DC converter with a dynamic control scheme

Multi-modular system plays an important role in power system architecture because low voltage and low power converters can be connected in any combination parallel or series at input/ output side in order to obtained any given power system specifications. Multi-modular boost haft bridge DC-DC converter in the configuration of input series output parallel has been investigated in this paper. The boost half bridge DC-DC converters are connected in input series output parallel con- figuration in order to achieve equal input voltage sharing and output current sharing between the con- verters. This can be achieved with the help of dynamic control scheme which consists of two loops, a voltage loop and a current loop, for each module. Dynamic behavior of multi-modular converter configuration has been observe by varying the load condition. Moreover, the results obtained through multi-modular converter describe that the system has good dynamic and steady state response. Al- though two converter modules are focused in this paper but it can be modified to any number of modules.
