Reference signal to calculate the PWM for each power submodule of the multilevel converter, specified as a vector.

Pulse width modulation signal for each submodule, returned as a vector.

If you set the Converter topology parameter to Half-bridge, the output is a vector specified as:

If you set the Converter topology parameter to Full-bridge, the output is a vector specified as:

where Gi_SMj is the reference signal controlling the i-th gate of the j-th power submodule. i ranges from 1 to 2 in a half-bridge topology and from 1 to 4 in a full-bridge topology. j ranges from 1 to N, where N is the number of power submodules specified in the Number of power submodules parameter.

Data Types: single | double

Topology of the modular multilevel converter.

Number of power submodules of the modular multilevel converter.

PWM timer period. The Timer period (s) parameter is specified as $$\frac{1}{2f_{sw}}$$, where $$f_{sw}$$ is the switching frequency.

Sample time for the block. For continuous-time simulation, set to zero. For discrete-time simulation, to ensure adequate resolution in the generated signal, specify a positive value that is less than or equal to 10 * Tper, where T_per is the Timer period (s).
