(2021). Applications and Modulation Methods for Modular Converters Enabling Unequal Cell Power Sharing. IEEE Industrial Electronics Magazine, 2-13.1932-4529 (Impreso)1941-0115 (Electronico)https://hdl.handle.net/11441/116325Modular converters based on the connection of multiple power cells have become a competitive solution for many applications achieving high performance with reduced production and maintenance cost. However, their performance is degraded if the power modules present an unbalanced operation which is a common case in some applications and/or when they implement active thermal control methods. Variable-angle carrier-based PWM strategies face this challenge minimizing the negative impact of unequal power sharing among the cells by improving the output waveforms harmonic quality what has a direct impact on the output filters and/or components’ lifetime.application/pdf12 p.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Modular ConvertersPhase-Displacement Modulation Methodsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://doi.org/10.1109/MIE.2021.3080232
