Fast compensation of DC bus voltage drops using modular multilevel converters

For a DC grid using modular multi-level converters (MMCs) fast control of the DC bus is an important requirement. A control design is presented where a sudden DC voltage drop is compensated without any influence on the AC side. Using a suitable pattern in the MMC internal circular currents, the DC c...
