| Summary: | The modular multilevel matrix converter (M3C) is a potential frequency converter for low-frequency AC transmission. However, capacitor voltage control of high-voltage and large-capacity M3C is more difficult, especially for voltage balancing between branches. To solve this problem, this paper defines sequence circulating components and theoretically analyzes the influence mechanism of different sequence circulating components on branch capacitor voltage. A fully decoupled branch energy balancing control method based on four groups of sequence circulating components is proposed. This method can control capacitor voltages of nine branches in horizontal, vertical and diagonal directions. Considering influences of both circulating current and voltage, a cross decoupled control is designed to improve control precision. Simulation results are taken from a low-frequency transmission system based on PSCAD/EMTDC, and effectiveness and precision of the proposed branch energy balancing control method are verified in the case of nonuniform parameters and an unbalanced power system. |
