A DC Short-Circuit Fault Ride Through Strategy of MMC-HVDC Based on the Cascaded Star Converter

A modular multilevel converter based high voltage direct current (MMC-HVDC) with DC fault self-clearing is adopted to deal with the DC short-circuit fault. However, the constant power load characteristic of the sub-modules causes capacitor voltages to diverge and the converter to go out of hot stand...
