Abstract

Aiming at the instability problem of traditional power synchronization control (PSC) in a stiff grid, an advanced PSC based on modular multilevel converter (MMC) is proposed in this paper, which can effectively improve converter stability in high short circuit ratio (SCR) scenarios. The key point of the proposed PSC is to eliminate the impact of the arm inductor voltage and capacitor voltage ripple on the converter output voltage, which means a generalized decoupling process in the PSC controller. Based on the decoupling correction, MMC can be treated as a controlled voltage source regardless of the internal impedance circuit and the power oscillation between MMC and the stiff grid can be suppressed effectively. The control strategy is verified and compared with traditional PSC in time simulations.
