This paper presents a new multilevel one-cycle control (OCC) technique for a five-level diode-clamped multilevel converter (DCMC)-based static VAR compensator (STATCOM). The OCC algorithm in combination with multi-carrier level-shifted PWM control is used in the proposed five-level DCMC-based STATCOM. The automatic dc link voltage balance is simply realized by four voltage compensators presented as the part of the OCC controller. In this paper the OCC principle of a two-level converter-based STATCOM is reviewed and extended to the five-level DCMC-based STATCOM. The proposed multilevel OCC control method of the five-level DCMC-based STATCOM in steady-state and dynamic operation modes is verified by simulation and experimental results.

Permanent magnet synchronous hub motors (PMSHMs) have been gradually introduced into the applications of electric vehicles. In order to output more torque, many researchers turned their research direction to six-phase motors. Because it is composed of two sets of three-phase windings, there will be interference between the windings, affecting the performance of the motor. In order to improve the steady and dynamic-state performance of permanent magnet six phase synchronous motor, a predictive torque control method based on multi vector model is proposed in this paper. Finally, experimental results show the effectiveness of this method.

This paper presents a three-phase cascaded five-level H-bridge quasi-switched boost inverter (CHB-qSBI). The merits of the CHB-qSBI are as follows: single-stage conversion, shoot-through immunity, buck-boost voltage, and reduced passive components. Furthermore, a PWM control method is applied to the CHB-qSBI topology to improve the modulation index. The voltage stress across power semiconductor devices and the capacitor are significantly lower using improved pulse-width modulation (PWM) control. Additionally, by controlling individual shoot-through duty cycle, the DC-link voltage of each module can achieve the same values. As a result, the imbalance problem of the DC-link voltage can be solved. A detailed analysis and operating principle with the modulation scheme and comprehensive comparison for the CHB-qSBI are illustrated. The experimental and simulation results are presented to validate the operating principle of the three-phase CHB-qSBI.

Abstract The main goal of this paper is to present a five-level converter with the feature of output voltage boosting capability. Thanks to its modular construction and single DC source usage, 5LCHB converter becomes an important alternative for two-level converters operating with DC-DC converters that use bulky inductors. Furthermore, model predictive control (MPC) method is presented, which allows for boosting output voltage of presented converter while providing three-phase load current control and flying capacitor voltage stabilization. The last section describes a 5kVA laboratory model of five-level hybrid converter interfacing RL load and shows experimental results confirming theoretical analysis derived in previous sections.

A new static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) based on Flying Capacitor modular multilevel converter (DCM2C) is proposed in this thesis. In this converter topology the capacitor voltage is clamped by using a low power rating diode in each sub-module (SM). The quantity of voltage sensors is significantly reduced and is free from the number of voltage levels. Furthermore the voltage balancing control method becomes very simple and the capacitor voltage balance speed is fast. Based on the structure of MMC the DCM2C-STATCOM has the capability of Var compensation and negative sequence current compensation. The topology characteristics and compensation control method of DCM2C-STATCOM are investigated in this thesis. That the capacitor voltage of the proposed DCM2C-STATCOM can be well balanced and the Var and negative-sequence current compensation are effective.
