Degradation-Reducing Control for Dynamically Reconfigurable Batteries
Cascaded circuits such as modular multilevel con-verters (MMC) offer attractive qualities in reconfigurable battery applications. In contrast to conventional hard-wired dc battery packs, the MMC topology loads modules with ac current, which may lead to additional ageing of batteries. As recent studies reveal, such ageing of batteries occurs at low-frequency load ripple, and almost vanishes at high frequencies. State of the art in MMC bat-tery control focuses on state of charge and temperature balancing of individual modules. Previous methods to suppress ripple rely on slow feedback loops and low dynamics, which tends to form low-frequency patterns in the module load that negatively contribute to their ageing. This paper presents a novel module-current-oriented high-bandwidth control technique which minimizes low-frequency components in the module load spectrum. The control method respects limitations related to module data acquisition and enhanc-es the feedback bandwidth using observation techniques. We verify the proposed method experimentally on a laboratory setup and estimate the influence on the battery cells.
