Abstract :
This paper suggests the new modulation method of the multi-level double converter system used for static synchronous compensator for distribution power system (D-STATCOM). The proposed modulation method can change the modulation factor for each level of the converter to control the balance of each dc capacitor voltage and also can reduce the higher harmonics and the switching loss.
