Abstract:
Systems and methods to improve operation of a modular multilevel converter. Some embodiments include a first upper arm with a first active power link module, which facilitates producing a first portion of a first alternating current electrical power at a base frequency and injecting a first even-order current harmonic of the base frequency in the first upper arm, and a first lower arm with a second active power link module, which facilitates producing a second portion of the first alternating current, in which the first portion of the first alternating current and the second portion of the alternating current are combined to facilitate outputting the first alternating current electrical power at a first alternating current terminal, and injecting the first even-order current harmonic in the first lower arm, in which magnitude of the first even-order current harmonic is zero at the first alternating current terminal.

Claim (Index 7):
The modular multilevel converter of  claim 5 , comprising:\n a third upper arm comprising a fifth active power link module, wherein the fifth active power link module is configured to selectively connect and disconnect a fifth ultracapacitor to the third upper arm to facilitate:\n producing a first portion of a third alternating current electrical power at the base frequency; and \n injecting a third even-order current harmonic of the base frequency in the third upper arm; \n a third lower arm comprising a sixth active power link module, wherein the sixth active power link module is configured to selectively connect and disconnect a sixth ultracapacitor to the third lower arm to facilitate:\n producing a second portion of the third alternating current electrical power, wherein the first portion of the third alternating current electrical power and the second portion of the third alternating current electrical power are combined to facilitate outputting the third alternating current at a third alternating current terminal; and \n injecting the third even-order current harmonic in the third lower arm, wherein magnitude of the third even-order harmonic current is zero at the third alternating current terminal.
