Frequency-Division Virtual Impedance Shaping Control Method for Grid-Connected Inverters in a Weak and Distorted Grid.

Grid-connected current quality is seriously affected by the low-order background harmonics in the gird-inverter dynamic system. The point of common coupling voltage feedforward impedance reshaping method of the grid-connected inverter is generally applied to solve this problem, however about 90° phase lag of the inverter output impedance is brought in, which would deteriorate the adaptability of the inverter to the weak grid. To solve this problem, this article proposes a novel frequency-division virtual impedance shaping method, which shapes the output impedance of the grid-connected inverter with different coefficients in different frequency bands, respectively. The basic principles, parameters design, and application analysis are studied in detail. With the proposed scheme, the grid-connected inverter can be equipped with strong adaptability to a wide range of grid impedance and suppression ability to the background voltage harmonics simultaneously. Theoretical analysis and experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
