Modeling Systems with Multilevel Converters in MATLAB and Simulink

In this webinar, we demonstrate how MathWorks tools may be used to model and simulate systems containing multilevel converter technology. A modular multilevel converter example will be used to explore the following topics,

• Build models of multilevel converters programatically from base components
• Use configurable subsystems to switch between different converter architectures
• Analyze pulse-width modulation (PWM) harmonic signatures to verify the correctness of the models
• Simulate different operational scenarios to test control system operation
  • HVDC power transfer
  • PMSM generation control
• Automate report generation to record the output of simulation studies
