This study presents a method for module-level state-of-charge (SOC) balancing and fault-tolerant operation of the cascaded H-bridge (CHB) converter-based battery energy storage system for electric vehicle (EV) application. The proposed methods are based on the multi-dimensional pulse-width modulatio...
