In this paper performance analysis of various hybrid reactive power compensators (RPC’s) at the inverter AC sides of a line commutated converter (LCC) based multi-terminal HVDC (MTDC) transmission system, feeding weak AC networks, is carried out to thoroughly gather the mechanisms of interactions between an HVDC system and weak AC systems. The hybrid compensator is realized by equally mixing th...

This paper presents the design and development of Neuro-Fuzzy controllers for the dc link current control in a two-terminal HVDC system. The dc link current error and its time derivative have been taken as the two inputs to the controller for deriving the control action, i.e., the firing angle of the converter. The basic structure of a Fuzzy controller has been modified to develop a Neuro-Fuzzy...
