Abstract
The modularity, fault-tolerability, and voltage scalability features allow the modular multilevel converter (MMC) to be a promising topology for modern electric ship applications. Arm voltage and submodule (SM) capacitor voltage balancing controllers with conventional high-frequency modulation schemes are indispensable for reliable and stable operation of an MMC. This requires an additional external arm controller and the control complexity increases for an MMC with a large number of SMs. Alternatively, the space-vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) schemes provide more freedom in selecting the voltage vectors to achieve multiple objectives, thus eliminating the arm voltage balancing controller. In this paper, a simplified SVPWM implementation for an n-level MMC is proposed. This scheme utilizes all the available switching states and calculates switching timings by mapping to a two-level space-vector structure. The computational burden of the proposed scheme is independent of converter voltage level, therefore it is computationally efficient and well suited to the MMC with any number of SMs. Experimental results are presented to show the performance of an MMC system using the proposed scheme under steady-state, rapid acceleration and speed-reversal conditions.

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
