© 2019 IEEE. In some cases, only two current sensors are available in three-phase three-wire (3P3W) inverters. This occurs when one of three sensors is faulty, or the inverter is equipped with only two sensors to save cost. There has been no method a...

Conference Proceeding
Saleh, B. M., Costabeber, A., Watson, A., Tardelli, F., & Clare, J. (2019). A New Capacitor Voltage Balancing Method for Trapezoidal Operation of Modular Multilevel DC-DC Converters. In 2019 21st European Conference on Power Electronics and Applications (EPE '19 ECCE Europe) (1-9). https://doi.org/10.23919/EPE.2019.8915177

© 2019 EPE Association. In this paper, a new submodule (SM) capacitor voltage balancing algorithm is proposed for the trapezoidal operation of a Modular Multilevel DC-DC converter (MMC-DC-DC) for HVDC/MVDC. Trapezoidal wave-shaping leads to SM switch... Read More about A New Capacitor Voltage Balancing Method for Trapezoidal Operation of Modular Multilevel DC-DC Converters.
