  • Abstract
    This paper presents a steady state performance analysis carried out to evaluate the operation and behavior of a two VSC-based level-full scale frequency converter working as a HVDC link. The digital model has been implemented and evaluated using PSCAD/EMTDCcopy. The emphasis of this work has been put on evaluating the transferred active and reactive power from the rectifying station to the inverting station as well as the influence of the modulation index on the total harmonic distortion (THD).
