Abstract

This paper proposed an improved control method for grid-connected voltage source converter (VSC), when the grid voltage consisted of the integer harmonics and inter-harmonics. Control object of the proposed control can be alternated to achieve the sinusoidal current or smooth output power, which enhances the operation adaption of VSC under the harmonically distorted grid. On the basis of a PI regulator in the fundamental current control loop, the novel control strategy was proposed with a supplementary controller which consisted of a prepositive high-pass filter and a modified proportional-derivative controller. In the proposed control, the inter-harmonics could be suppressed without detecting frequency, while the traditional resonator was effective in the premise of knowing the harmonics frequency. Also, the influence of control gain on the steady performance and the stability of VSC was analyzed, and the influences on the fundamental control caused by the proposed controller were also analyzed to verify the practicability of the proposed control strategy. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed strategy was verified by the experiments.
