A Novel Repetitive Control Enhanced Phase-Locked Loop for Synchronization of Three-Phase Grid-Connected Converters

Abstract

This paper proposes the enhancement of a synchronous reference frame phase-locked loop in terms of its dynamic response and disturbance rejection capability. The improvements were undertaken in order to upgrade the converter grid support capability required by modern grid codes during grid faults. The proposed repetitive control-based filter is inserted in the loop filter structure of the phase-locked loop. For the initially proposed structure, the necessity of the phase angle error correction term was derived and added at the output of the loop filter. On a set of tests that included (i) phase jump; (ii) voltage sag; (iii) voltage harmonics; (iv) DC offset; (v) random noise and; (vi) frequency change, the synchronization algorithm with the proposed modification showed two desirable characteristics: (i) a high attenuation of oscillations on specific frequencies; and (ii) the instant compensation of the portion of the phase angle jump. Along with the benefits, drawbacks of the proposed synchronization method were noted, the most important being the high dependency of the oscillation attenuation capability on the fundamental frequency drift and susceptibility to high-frequency noise. With the proposed modification, the synchronization algorithm manages to achieve a phase angle settling time not longer than one fundamental frequency period in all of the conducted tests.

“…The PLL is realized as shown in Fig. 3 [28,29]. The phase detector compares 𝑑 and 𝑞-axis input signals and the output generates the phase and frequency.…”

Un laboratorio remoto de código abierto y bajo coste para el brazo robótico educativo Dobot Magician

“…La Raspberry Pi (Raspberry PI Webpage, 2022) es un ordenador monoplaca, originalmente desarrollado para promover la Informática entre estudiantes de primaria y secundaria en todo el mundo. Sin embargo, su bajo coste, tamaño reducido y conectividad (que, según la versión, puede incluir puertos USB 2.0 y 3.0, Ethernet, HDMI y hasta 40 pines de propósito general) la ha convertido en un sistema embebido de referencia para muchas aplicaciones, entre las que se incluyen diferentes laboratorios remotos (Bermudez-Ortega et al, 2015, 2016aFilipović et al, 2017;Carballo et al, 2018;Letowski et al, 2019;Fukumoto et al, 2021).…”

Newly fault-tolerant indirect vector control for traction inverter

“…A predictive Space Vector Modulation is introduced in reference [10] to overcome this topology's predominant weaknesses and compensate for the DC link voltage ripple. In another way, the DC-link voltage and the currents unbalance are repaired based on double synchronous reference frame PI controllers [11]. As reported in [12], the motor current bothers were solved using a new reference voltage.…”
