Tolerance and component aging can cause significant differences in the capacitance values of the submodules (SMs) in a modular multilevel converter (MMC). Depending on the modulation technique, capacitance mismatches may produce uneven switching tran... Read More about Submodule power losses balancing algorithms for the modular multilevel converter.
