A Fault-Tolerant Strategy for Three-Level Flying-Capacitor DC/DC Converter in Spacecraft Power System

Flying capacitor multilevel PWM converter based UPFC

A unified power flow controller (UPFC) based on the flying capacitor (FC) multilevel voltage-source converter (VSC) topology with phase-shifted sinusoidal pulse-width modulation (PWM) control is presented. This converter allows higher power handling, potentially lower power loss, lower harmonic distortion and hence less filtering requirements when compared with the typical two-level counterppar...

A Grid-connected PV Power Supply based on Flying Capacitor multicell converter with modified MPPT based Control for Active Power Filtering

This paper presents a grid connected photovoltaic system, which acts as both power generator and active power filter (APF), based on Flying Capacitor Multicell (FCM) converter. Increase in the number of output voltage levels, natural self-balancing of flying capacitors and dc link voltage and lower power rating of components are the main futures of FCM converter compared with conventional multi...

Modulator for 4-level Flying Capacitor Converter with Balancing Control in the Closed Loop

This paper presents a modulator with an active voltage balancing control for the three-phase fourlevel FLC converter based electric motor drive for applications supplied directly from a 6 kV ac-grid. It describes a modulation algorithm of the FLC converter by using the phase shifted PWM modulation with balancing voltage of the flying capacitor by using P controllers in the closed loop. The prop...
