Submodule power losses balancing algorithms for the modular multilevel converter

Tolerance and component aging can cause signif¬icant differences in the capacitance values of the submodules (SMs) in a modular multilevel converter (MMC). Depending on the modulation technique, capacitance mismatches may produce uneven switching transitions of the SMs, hence imbalances in the power...
