This paper presents the converter configuration acting as a medium voltage DC source. In order to obtain desired voltage across the DC terminals, two series connected modular multilevel converters are used. The use of modular multilevel converters results ...
We present a design for an on-chip MEMS-actuated Variable Optical Attenuator (VOA) based on Silicon Photonic MEMS technology. The VOA consists of 30 individual mechanically movable MEMS cantilevers, suspended over an integrated, 1 mu m wide bus waveguide, ...
This paper describes a novel, model based, design optimisation methodology for high-power medium frequency transformers for medium-voltage high-power electronic applications, namely emerging solid state transformers. Presented procedure enables the designe ...
The ever increasing penetration of renewable energy systems in the distribution grids will inevitably require profound changes in the grid infrastructure. One emerging direction, the medium voltage dc (MVdc) grids, is the cornerstone of this work. They are ...
In the area of medium voltage DC-DC conversion, LLC Series Resonant Converter (LLC-SRC) presentsitself as an attractive topology for implementation of the DC transformer. Employing Integrated Gate Commutated Thyristor (IGCT) as a switching element one can ...
Roth DC collection and transmission grids have enjoyed a lot of popularity lately. In order to successfully take advantage of the benefits offered by DC systems, reliable connection between two networks of different voltage levels has to be obtained. This ...
Nowadays electrical energy generation is an important topic discussed in the society. Since technologies like wind or solar energy generation are most of the time placed far away from the city centres one point to focus on is the transmission of the energy ...
A multiport medium voltage (MV) isolated DC-DC converter with integrated energy storage, suited for connection of low voltage (LV) and medium voltage (MV) DC grids is presented. A multi-stage structure, adapted for MV ratings, is composed of multiple ident ...
This paper presents the converter configuration acting as a medium voltage DC source. In order to obtain desired voltage across the DC terminals, two series connected modular multilevel converters are used. The use of modular multilevel converters results ...
Quasi two-level operation of voltage source converters, intended to operate either within high/medium voltage DC networks or low output frequency applications, has caught the attention of both academia and industry. Sequential insertion of the so-called su ...
