The characteristics of high penetration of renewable energy and high proportion of power electronic equipment in new power systems bring a harmonic interaction problem. This is different from traditional power systems. The harmonic coupling interaction characteristics of the multi-converter topology need to be studied. First, based on the harmonic state space (HSS), the harmonic transfer function matrix model considering harmonic coupling is established for the multiple grid-connected-converter system (MGCCS). The model comprehensively considers the influence of each control link of the system on the state variables as well as the factors of cascade and parallel converters. Second, the harmonic coupling coefficient is defined based on the established HSS model. This is used to reveal the harmonic coupling mechanism of the multi-converter topology, and analyze the harmonic interaction characteristics of the cascade and parallel converters. Then, the harmonic coupling coefficient is used to quantify the influence of key parameters such as filter inductor, current loop and phase-locked loop on the harmonic interaction of MGCCS. Finally, the results of the HSS model, Matlab/Simulink model and RT-LAB model are compared to verify the accuracy of the proposed HSS model and the effectiveness of the harmonic coupling coefficient theory applied to the AC/DC harmonic interaction analysis of the system.
