Abstract
In this paper a comparative loss analysis between a cascaded H-bridge (CHB) low-capacitance static compensator (LC-StatCom) with symmetrical I-V characteristics and a conventional CHB StatCom is presented. Effect of the capacitor voltage ripples on switching and conduction losses are determined through theoretical analysis. Simulation-based analyses on a 350-VA three-cell CHB LC-StatCom system are provided to confirm the theoretical predictions.
