Development of railway static power conditioner used at substation for Shinkansen

TLDR
In this article, a railway static power conditioner (RPC) is proposed to balance the effective power of different phases and compensate reactive power and harmonics in high-speed AC electric railways.
Abstract
High-speed AC electric railways, such as Shinkansen, require large single-phase AC electric power. So, if the short circuit capacity of the power system is not large enough, therefore, railway operation causes large voltage unbalance at the three-phase side. In this paper, a railway static power conditioner (RPC), a new system for reducing voltage unbalance and fluctuation, is described. To reduce voltage unbalance and fluctuation, the RPC balances effective power of different phase and compensates reactive power and harmonics. It enables operation of high-speed AC electrified railways even if the short circuit capacity of the power system is rather small.

Virtual neutral point selection for three-leg railway power quality conditioner

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a modeling method for three-leg railway power quality conditioner, by means of selecting a virtual neutral point, which replaced the two higher actual phase voltages by three lower virtual ones, which helps the converter lower the requirement of dc-link voltage level and the number of series-connected devices by about 30%.
