Abstract
Although the impedance/admittance model of modular multilevel converter (MMC) considering internal harmonic is discussed extensively in the literature, few attentions have been focused on how to determine the number of harmonics to be included in the model. This article fills this gap by developing the MMC signal-flow graph (SFG), providing the analytical transfer function to quantitatively estimate the attenuation degree of MMC harmonics, so as to guide the model truncation. Besides, SFG offers an intuitive understanding on the mathematical characteristic of MMC, including the conjugate symmetry and the effect of phase reference on admittance, which helps to reduce the modeling calculation. Moreover, conversion formula of MMC multiple input multiple output and single input single output admittance is derived based on the truncated model to further simplify the stability analysis. The correctness of this article has been verified by simulation and experiment.
