Abstract
The modular multilevel converter (MMC) has recently attracted research attention in medium-voltage applications, such as MV drives and back-to-back systems. In such applications, the harmonic content of MMC's output voltage and current is of particular importance and must be kept below permissible levels. This is typically done by increasing the switching frequency and/or by using an output filter stage. To lower the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the output voltage and current at the terminals, in this work, a new modulation scheme for MMC is presented. Using this modulation scheme, since the voltage and current harmonics are lowered at the converter terminals, the rating and hence the cost of the output filter required to achieve permissible THD level is reduced. Simulation results are provided to testify to the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
