Inherently Decoupled Dc-Link Capacitor Voltage Control of Multilevel Neutral-Point-Clamped Converters
This paper derives and discusses the superiority of a simple dc-link capacitor voltage control configuration for multilevel neutral-point-clamped converters with any number of levels. The control involves n − 2 control loops regulating the difference between the voltage of neighbor capacitors.
