摘要
A method of controlling a multilevel converter, a computer program and a controller for a converter is provided. The method includes determining a transition voltage (vstep) from a control period (k) to a following control period (k+1), analyzing (104) the switching cells (SC1, SC2, SC3, SCn) of each phase leg, selecting (111) capacitors to provide the transition voltage and synthesize the output voltage for the following control period (k+1), and connecting (113) the selected capacitors during the following control period (k+1). Especially, the analyzing (104) of each switching cell (SC1; SC2; SC3; SCn) comprises analyzing (104) a first switching leg (SL1) and a second switching leg (SL1) of the switching cell (SC1; SC2; SC3; SCn), and the method includes determining (105) whether a change of state of the first switching leg (SL1) would contribute to the direction of the transition voltage, and determining (105) whether a change of state of the second switching leg (SL2) would contribute to the direction of the transition voltage, and determining (107) the internal conditions of each of the first (SL1) and the second switching leg (SL2) that are determined as contributing to the transition. Thus, the two legs of the H-bridge are analyzed separately. The selecting (111) of capacitors is performed by selecting (111) the capacitors of the switching legs (SL1; SL2) of the phase leg (PA, PB, PC) for the transition voltage on the basis of the determined internal conditions of the switching legs (SL1, SL2), including comparing the internal conditions of all the switching legs (SL1; SL2) of the phase leg (PA, PB, PC). A controller (40) is configured to control the multilevel converter by performing the method.
