Ac-side admittance calculation for modular multilevel converters

• Power electronic converters may interact with the grid, thereby influencing dynamic behavior and resonances. Impedance and passivity based stability criteria are two useful methods that allow for studying the grid-converter system as a feedback system, whose behavior is determined by the ratio of grid and converter impedances. In this paper, the ac-side admittance of the modular multilevel converter is calculated using harmonic linearization and considering five specific frequency components of the converter variables. The proposed model features remarkable accuracy, verified through simulations, and insight into the influence of converter and control parameters on the admittance frequency characteristics, which is useful for understanding grid-converter interaction and designing the system.
