Power Electronics, IEEE Transactions on, 15(6), pp.1088-1093.0885-8993http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/1179Full text available at http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?tp=&arnumber=892823&url=http%3A%2F%2Fieeexplore.ieee.org%2Fxpls%2Fabs_all.jsp%3Farnumber%3D892823This paper describes a multiterminal unified power flow controller (M-UPFC) for the management of real and reactive powers of several transmission lines emanating from a single bus. The example of the paper consists of the bus of a generator station. The M-UPFC is based on synthesizing several of L. Gyugyi's UPFCs so that they share a single pair of DC buses. The realizability of the M-UPFC has been demonstrated experimentally in a laboratory-size model constructed from three insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), voltage-source, sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) converters. An example is given where it is shown that the M-UPFC is more economical than single UPFCs Published in:enPWM power convertorsflexible AC transmission systemsinsulated gate bipolar transistorsload flow controlpower transmission controlpower transmission linesreactive power controlJournal Article10.1109/63.892823
