Abstract
A modulated model predictive controller is designed for an inductor-less modular multilevel converter targeting an MVDC solid-state transformer application. The underlying optimization problem is formulated such that a unique closed-form solution is derived from a highly accurate dynamic system model, which significantly reduces computation time. Unlike other closed-form methods, the proposed controller achieves inductor-less current control, has a reduced sampling speed enabled by a novel model-based circulating energy compensator, and does not require tuned PI controllers to generate current references. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed controller achieves transient power flow control and steady state circulating energy control despite the low system inertia.
