This paper presents a current suppression method based on a droop control strategy under distorted grid voltage with inter-harmonics and fundamental frequency fluctuation. In this proposed strategy, the current incomplete derivation controller is employed to decrease the negative impact caused by harmonic and inter-harmonic grid voltage. This method provides a good dynamic response and has low complexity against the inter-harmonics with unfixed fundamental frequency. Based on a mathematical model of the grid-connected inverter, we designed novel instantaneous frequency detection and feed-forward methods to suppress the grid fundamental frequency fluctuation impacts. Then the main parameters were analyzed. The simulation and experimental results verified the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Control strategy under unbalanced grid voltage conditions is one of the most important issues for grid-connected inverter. Under unbalanced grid voltage conditions, the 2nd active and reactive power ripples generate, they pollute the grid. To meet the demands of IEEE Std.929-2000, this paper proposed a modified power compensation control strategy; the proposed solution is based on direct power control. To provide accurate compensating power, the power model of three-phase inverter under unbalanced grid voltage conditions is given, using the positive sequence current component and the negative sequence voltage component, the compensating powers are calculated in details. Theoretical analysis and comparative simulation verification are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

Control strategy under unbalanced and distorted grid voltage is one of the most significant tasks for grid-connected inverter (GCI). In order to guarantee that the grid current meets the related IEEE Std.929-2000, a new control scheme was presented. Firstly, the typical model of GCI was presented. Secondly, the GCI control model based on PI-QR controller in synchronous reference frame (SRF) was built. Finally, the system’s simulation was conducted under distorted and unbalanced grid voltage. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the presented control strategy.

This paper introduces an improved current control strategy for a grid-connected inverter system operating under distorted grid voltage conditions. Although existing current controllers for grid-connected inverters have proportional integral gains with suitable bandwidth, low-order harmonic components can be generated by distorted grid voltages. The proposed improved current controller is established in a synchronous reference frame that rotates at harmonic frequency. The input signals for the harmonic current controller should contain only the specific harmonic components requiring suppression. Therefore, the proposed current controller uses a harmonic extractor to distinguish current signals from fundamental and specific harmonic components. The harmonic extractor retains only the relevant harmonic components for individual current controllers with high harmonic signal ratios. This paper introduces two different strategies to extract specific harmonic components for the current controller. The proposed control strategy does not require any additional hardware filter circuits and can be implemented easily by designing a suitable digital filter. When using the proposed method, grid current quality is significantly improved compared to conventional methods that do not include harmonic extractors. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through simulations and practical experiments.

An improved control strategy for three-phase grid-connected inverters with space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) is proposed. When the grid current contains harmonics, the d-and q-axes grid currents is interacted in the traditional control method, and the waveform quality of the grid current is poor. As the reference output voltage cannot directly reflect the change of the reference grid current with the traditional control strategy, the dynamic response of the grid-connected inverter is slow. In order to solve the aforementioned problems, the d-and q-axes grid currents in the decoupled components of the grid current controller are substituted by the d-and q-axes reference grid currents, respectively. The operating principles of the traditional and proposed control methods are illustrated. Experimental results show that the grid-connected inverter with the improved control strategy has high waveform quality of the grid current and fast dynamic response.

The mathematical model for three-phase four-leg grid-connected inverter is modeled by the simplified p-q-r theory. The control strategy is proposed based on the characteristic of controlled variables. PI algorithm is adopted for variables of p axis and q axis, and PR algorithm is adopted for variable of r axis. The full design and analysis of the proposed control algorithms are given in this paper. Simulation results and experimental result show that quality of four-leg grid-connected inverter output current is higher, and effectiveness of the proposed control strategies is validated by all results.
