The concept of power electronics building blocks (PEBB) has driven advancements in highly modularized converter systems with many identical subsystems. PEBBs are distributed subsets of converter systems and thus require communication with a control system for their coordination. For this type of system, the communication latency with hard deterministic deadlines is the driving attribute of communication system requirements. However, inherent communication requirements for PEBB-based converter systems also provide opportunities for coordination of energy flow.
Leveraging developments in Gigabit serial communication channels, a control and communication platform architecture for distributed control schemes based on the 2D-Torus communication network topology was developed …
