Abstract

This paper discusses the capacitor voltage balance in MMC controlled by the space vector PWM technique. The proposed converter is included with four sub-modules each comprising a half-bridge converter with a DC link capacitor. An optimized control structure for capacitor voltage balance with the conventional PI controller is simulated compared to the updated visual system controller that changes the standard control. The converter function is analyzed with the comparison of settling times of the DC link capacitors voltages in each module. The performance of the induction motor is analyzed by connected to this converter generating speed and torque characteristic parameters. The design and analysis are carried out using MATLAB Simulink software, where the powergui tool is used to generate graphs that are plotted with time as a reference.
