The impact of capacitor voltage changes during the modulation period is examined in order to improve the arm voltage of a modular multilevel converter. Different methods are used to predict and compensate for the capacitor voltage change and the resulting arm voltage error, whereby two of the improvements provide a possibility to easily upgrade existing modulation algorithms. Simulation and measurement results demonstrate a reduced arm voltage error and thus a reduced circulating current in comparison to the case when the voltage change is neglected in the modulator.
