Abstract:Each bridge arm of a modular multilevel converter (MMC) is connected in series with multiple submodules. This structure increases the amount of current detection, making it necessary to have a number of current sensors in operation, which increases the system cost. For this reason, this paper proposes an MMC control strategy that does not require bridge arm current sensors. Firstly, the nearest level modulation (NLM) strategy requires the bridge arm current to be used to determine the submodule entry direction… Show more
