Alternate arm modular multilevel converter energy balancing via overlap onset control

Alternate arm modular multilevel converter energy balancing via overlap onset control

This study introduces a novel method called overlap onset control (OOC) to balance and maintain alternate arm modular multilevel converter (AAC) submodule capacitor voltages at their desired value. OOC performs zero-current switching and controls the timing of AAC commutation to regulate submodule v...
