Abstract
An asymmetrical firing strategy for the cascaded converters of a HVDC link is proposed, resulting in minimum reactive power compensation at both ends of the DC link. Both 6- and 12-pulse converters, in unipolar and bipolar operation, are considered. In addition to reactive power reduction, AC and DC harmonics are greatly reduced
