Abstract

High-order filters, such as LCL , are more commonly employed in grid-connected inverters (GcIs) as an interference element for the better attenuation of switching harmonics. However, LCL filters may have resonance poles and antiresonance zeros in the frequency response with inverter side current. This may affect the stability of the system and limit the control bandwidth with the simple single-loop PI control. This becomes severe with the introduction of grid impedance due to the large distance between renewable energy sources and the power grid. To mitigate this effect, active damping and sensorless damping is preferred with pre-information about grid impedance. In this paper, linear active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) is introduced, first to L filter type GcI and later extended to LCL filter type GcIs with minimum modification. From the frequency analysis, it is shown that the characteristics of the proposed control scheme remain the same even with a change in filter order and grid impedance. The resonance poles and antiresonance zeros in the LCL filter are compensated via the pole–zero cancelation technique. In addition to this, the preserve bandwidth, simple control design, and decoupled current control are also achieved with the proposed method. The robustness of the proposed method is compared with the single-loop PI control under different filter types and grid impedance uncertainty through MATLAB simulation and experimental outcomes.
