A Full-bridge Director Switches based Multilevel Converter with DC Fault Blocking Capability and Its Predictive Control Strategy

Voltage source converter-based high-voltage direct current transmission system (VSC-HVDC) technology has been widely used. However, traditional half-bridge sub module (HBSM)-based module multilevel converter (MMC) cannot block a DC fault current. This paper proposes that a full-bridge director switc...
