"Multilevel D-STATCOM for Sag and Swell Mitigation Using Modulation Index Control"
by Ahmed Majed and Zainal Salam
in the Proceedings of the IEEE Conference on Energy Conversion (CENCON), February 2016, pp. 187-192


The D-STATCOM has been used to control the voltage to its value by exchanging reactive power with the distribution network. For a good compensation of the sag and swell, 2 management approaches, specifically the point and modulation index schemes are used. For the previous, speedy adjustment within the injected or absorbed reactive power can't be achieved. Thus, this paper proposes a DSTATCOM employing a Multi-Level cascaded electrical converter supported the modulation index approach. The advantage of this theme is speedy adjustment of the reactive power that successively ends up in a speedy regulation of the bus voltage. It permits an instantaneous association to the electrical distribution system (11 kV) while not mistreatment large transformers whereas maintaining terribly low total harmonics distortion while not mistreatment any filter. The performance of the system with its controller is tested mistreatment Simulink-MATLAB. The results indicate excellent performance in mitigating the voltage sag and swell; the controller is in a position to recover terribly apace (less than one cycle) with THD under 6% for the total vary of operation.
