The bus admittance matrix is central to many power system simulation algorithms, but the link between problem size and computation time (i. e., the time complexity) using modern sparse solvers is not fully understood.

Mission profiles describe a representative set of conditions that a power converter is designed to operate under, and are known to be more complicated for multiport converter applications due to a wider range of combinations of powers that can be transferred between ports.

The feasible set of real powers that can be transferred by a three-terminal Soft Open Point (SOP) can be increased by selecting non-uniform power ratings for each of the three ac/dc legs of the SOP, then connecting a multi-terminal switch (multiplexer) to the ac side of each of those converters to facilitate reconfiguration.
