This paper presents a grid synchronization structure for three-phase electric power systems based on the use of a filtered quadrature signal generator (FQSG) and a phase-locked loop (PLL) structure, named Adaptive Vector Grid Synchronization system (AVGS). This system estimates the magnitude, frequency and phase of a signal, specially three-phase voltages and currents, and allows fast and accurate detection of the symmetrical components meet with the transient operating requirements imposed by grid codes. The adaptive vector based PLL (VB-PLL) permits offering a proper performance under generic grid conditions, especially under faulty scenarios. For the particular case of grid voltage synchronization of wind turbine converters, the AVGS is adjusted to provide a good response considering the most critical situation, which is the low voltage ride through (LVRT). This paper includes a detailed study of the proposed grid synchronization system and simulations with registers of real grid disturbances provided by Ingeteam Power Technology S.A.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
