Synchronization of Three Phase Inverter with Electrical Grid

Abstract

Phase, frequency, and amplitude of phase voltages are the most important and basic parameters need to be controlled or grid-connected applications. The aim of this paper is to present a review of various synchronization techniques for pulse width modulated voltage source inverter. This paper describes the estimation method and verifies its usefulness by extensive numerical experiments. Various synchronization algorithms are described here. The primary application of the proposed synchronization methods is for the distributed generation units with renewable energy sources, which utilize power electronic converters as an integral part of their systems. The synchronization is usually carried out with respect to the voltage, frequency and phase angle of voltage (or current) signal(s) of the utility system. The paper also describes the issues, challenges & solutions for.
