CIRCULATING CURRENT SUPPRESSING STRATEGY FOR MMC-HVDC BASED
ON NONIDEAL PROPORTIONAL RESONANT CONTROLLERS UNDER
UNBALANCED GRID CONDITIONS
ABSTRACT
Modular multilevel converter (MMC) is considered as a promising topology for voltage-
source converter (VSC) high voltage, direct current (HVDC) applications. This paper presents
a new control strategy for MMC-HVDC under unbalanced grid conditions. First, a new inner
loop current control strategy based on non ideal proportional resonant (PR) controllers in
stationary αβ frame is designed, which is more concise compared to the existing dual sequence
current control scheme. Second, an analytical expression for circulating current is obtained
which shows that the circulating currents will be asymmetric under unbalanced grid conditions
and can be decomposed into positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence component. In order to
suppress all these components, a new circulating current suppressing strategy is analyzed and
designed also based on non ideal PR controllers. Application of non ideal PR controllers makes
the control system well adapt to the fluctuation of grid frequency. The effectiveness of the
proposed control strategy is verified through a simulation case of a 251-level MMC-HVDC
transmission system using real-time digital simulator.
