In this paper, a finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) is developed and applied to the hybrid Nine-level Active Nested Neutral-Point Piloted (9L-ANNPP) voltage source converter. A mathematical model for the converter is derived and then incorporated in the FCS-MPC. The objective of t...
