“…With the arrival of new high-power semiconductor devices, new power converter structures are designed to meet the needs of future medium or high-voltage converter systems. In this highly active area, the modular multilevel cascaded (MMC) converter topologies and circuits have attracted a high degree of attention for their application in medium and highvoltage systems [6], [7], [8]. The component numbers of MMC converters grow up linearly with the number of levels, individual modules are identical and modular in construction thereby enabling the attainability of a high level number [9].…”

“…The power generated by renewable generators such as offshore wind farms is transmitted to the AC grid through the high voltage DC (HVDC) transmission, which should be controlled dynamically to match the generation and consumption. The existing AD/DC control schemes mostly focused on the control algorithm for a single modular multilevel converter (MMC) [17], [18], or the control strategy in a small scale system without communication networks involved [19]- [21]. However, the local measurement based control is not optimized in the system-scale and easily delayed without a global view [22].…”

“…Despite the simplicity, this scheme requires high-thermal capacity resistors, which are expensive. It also needs additional mechanical switches to bypass the resistors after the capacitors are charged (Xue et al 2014;Shi et al 2015).…”
