High-Frequency Oscillation Suppression Strategy for Flexible DC Transmission Systems Based on Additional Joint Damping.

Flexible DC transmission systems experience negative damping characteristics in the high-frequency range due to the delay in the system control link. This can lead to interactions between the impedance of modular multilevel converters (MMCs) and AC transmission lines, resulting in high-frequency oscillation (HFO) issues. To resolve this problem, a simplified MMC control model was developed, taking into account the current inner loop control link. The Sobol method was employed to analyze the factors influencing the impedance characteristics of MMC. Additionally, a combined approach involving a virtual passive filtering method and an equivalent current sampling method was proposed to provide additional damping. The study compared and analyzed the impact of additional damping control on the impedance characteristics and system stability of MMCs. Lastly, a flexible direct current grid connection simulation model was constructed using PSCAD to validate the effectiveness of the proposed additional damping control strategy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
