Abstract

The resonance in modular multilevel converter based high voltage direct current (MMC-HVDC) system poses a potential threat to the safe and stable operation of the power grid. The mechanism of the resonance phenomenon is complicated, which is closely related to the impedance characteristics of MMC system. By establishing the DC impedance model of MMC-HVDC system at both ends, the influence of parameters of control system in converter stations on the DC impedance characteristics of MMC system was analyzed, revealing the main influencing frequency bands and effect of each control parameter. The DC impedance characteristics of low and medium frequency bands could be shaped in a targeted manner by adjusting the control parameters, the stability margin of the system will be improved as well. The correctness of the results was verified by time domain simulation. The analysis results of this article can provide reference for the selection of the parameters of control system and the improvement of stability margin of MMC-HVDC system.
