This paper proposes a new and surge-less solid-state direct current (DC) circuit breaker in a
high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission system to clear the short-circuit fault. The …

The development of modular multilevel converter (MMC) and the increased needs for long
distance bulk power transmission using underground and subsea cables have promoted the …

In this paper, a new cascaded nonlinear controller has been designed and implemented on
the packed U-cell (PUC) seven-level inverter. The proposed controller has been designed …

Modular multilevel converter (MMC) based high‐voltage direct‐current (HVDC) transmission
system is a promising solution to the bulk power transmission over a long distance …

Expansion of high-voltage dc (HVdc) systems to multi-terminal HVdc (MT-HVdc)
systems/grids considerably increases the short-circuit levels. In order to protect the emerging …

To ensure the continuous operation of the voltage source converter based multi-terminal
HVDC system (VSC-MTDC), there has been much concern regarding how to isolate the …

In this paper, a model-predictive control (MPC) has been designed and implemented on the
packed U-cell (PUC) inverter, which has one isolated dc source and one capacitor as an …

High voltage direct current (HVdc) transmission systems play an essential role in our
modern power grids, not only providing bulk power transmission and asynchronous ac …

DC system has come a long way to shift the direction of power transmission in future. With
respect to that, the protection is still one of the hot topics that need to be addressed …

This paper presents a new family of buck type power factor corrector rectifiers that operates
in continuous-conduction mode (CCM) and generates a multilevel voltage waveform at the …
