Abstract

This paper performs a comprehensive circuit-level evaluation of four modern STATCOM systems, namely true-48-pulse and quasi-48-pulse STATCOMs, cascade multilevel and binary multilevel inverters. The comparison is based on a number of factors including circuit topology, harmonic distortion, system losses, GTO quantities, their specific applications, and other considerations. The theoretical results are verified by simulation with the use of MATLAB-Simulink Power System Blockset.
