The Research of STATCOM Based on Modular Multilevel Converter by GAO Han-ying, HU Zeng-shan, JIN Ping, YU Mei-jie

“…Capacitor voltage control and circulation current suppression are of great importance in the research of MMC topology To solve the problem of the normal half bridge MMC having no enough ability to control circulation current around threephase, we propose a novel MMC topology Each arm of the novel topology adds a H bridge to suppress circulating current, simultaneously avoid the complex coordinate transformation and decoupling control, realize the effective inhibition of the circulating current At the same time, the problem of the capacitance voltage imbalance of the submodule is solved by the capacitive voltage graded equalization control strategy and the stability of capacitors’ voltage is realizedThen, the MMC control strategy is used in high voltage and high power static synchronous compensator occasions Finally, the model of MMCSTATCOM with six halfbridge modules and one H bridge module is realized by Matlab/Simulink The simulation results demonstrate that the novel topology is effective and the control strategy is reasonable…”

A distributed strategy for the multi-target rescue using a UAV swarm under communication constraints by Hanqing YU, Yan LIN, Linqiong JIA, Qiang LI, Yijin Zhang

“…The current designs of the cooperative decision-making of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm usually adopt unreasonable assumptions on the communication ability between UAVs.Focusing on a multi-target rescue problem of a UAV swarm under constraints of energy, load and path, the limitation on the information sharing due to the communication constraints and the flight path of UAVs were taken into account.Firstly, the problem was formulated as a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP).Then, a recurrent neural network was used to propose a deep-reinforcement-learning-based distributed rescue strategy, which is able to adapt to the changeable communication topology.Simulation results show that the proposed strategy outperforms other strategies under communication constraints, and further show that a careful joint setting of the size and communication ability of a UAV swarm is needed to achieve the best compromise between the UAV swarm rescue performance and the cost.…”
