A generalized voltage balancing algorithm for modular multilevel cascaded converters

The use of an inter-cell voltage balancing scheme to evenly distribute the total dc-link voltage among the multiple floating capacitors is crucial in modular multilevel cascaded converters (MMCs). This paper presents an intuitively simple and computationally efficient sorting-based modulation algori...
