Virtual State Damping for Resonance Suppression and Robustness Improvement in LCL-type Distributed Generation Inverters
2020
This paper proposes a Virtual State Damping (VSD) plugin to output current controllers of distributed generation (DG) inverters. The VSD is designed to suppress the resonance usually present in LCL-type grid-connected DG systems, providing robustness to the control system against grid impedance uncertainties or variations. Typical active damping techniques apply an equivalence impedance model to design their structures. The proposed VSD has the advantage of not needing to take such analysis into account for its design, i.e., it is not dependent on the LCL filter's physical model. The VSD structure applies the model reference theory, and it does not require additional sensors for its implementation. The paper also presents the VSD design methodology and stability analysis. Real-time domain emulation (RTDE) results and 5kW lab-prototype experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed technique.
