MMC SUBMODULE SELECTION by Stephane Brehaut PhD, CEng, EurIng, IntPE, MsC, SMIEEE
A method is provided for selecting submodules of a valve of modular multilevel converter in order to generate a desired valve output voltage. The method comprises: obtaining (410) a voltage value for each submodule of the valve indicative of a voltage across an energy storage element of the submodule; for each submodule of the valve: if the submodule was previously selected: (420) adding or subtracting a first shift voltage value to the obtained voltage value for the su
