Abstract

Voltage Source Converter-based High Voltage Direct Current (VSC-HVDC) transmission technology represents a groundbreaking approach in high voltage Direct Current (DC) transmission, offering numerous technical advantages and broad application prospects. However, in the d-q synchronous rotating coordinate system, the VSC-HVDC exhibits the coupling effect of active power and reactive power, so it needs to be decoupled. This paper introduces the basic principle and mathematical model of the VSC-HVDC transmission system. Through the combination of coordinate transformation and variable substitution, a feedforward decoupling control method is derived. Then the VSC-HVDC simulation model is designed, and the simulation analysis is carried out in the MATLAB environment. The simulation results demonstrate that the method effectively achieves decoupling control of active and reactive power, exhibiting superior dynamic performance and robustness. These findings validate the correctness and effectiveness of the control strategy.
