Abstract

In dual-active-bridge (DAB) converters, the driving-synchronization signal is supposed to be required to be transmitted across the primary bridge and the secondary bridge to realize a phase shift for power flow. In this letter, a novel bridge-to-bridge independent (B <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> I) control method is proposed. In this control method, cross-bridge transmission of sampling/driving signals is not required. Thus, full modularity of each side in the DAB converter was realized. B <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> I control is suitable for high-voltage series low-voltage parallel (HSLP) modular DAB interlinking converter in medium-voltage dc applications because: first, the bridge-level modularity of B <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> I control benefits electromagnetic compatibility and insulation design with the HSLP connection; second, B <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> I control features series-side voltage sharing; and third, B <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> I control can adapt for various operation modes of microgrids.
