Abstract
- • The controller has inherent robustness against the LCL filter resonance and thus removes the need for PD, which produces losses, or AD, which increases the total cost of the system due to the need for extra sensors. • By selecting the controller parameter with a sensitivity analysis over the open-loop transfer function, the closed-loop system shows sufficiently high stability margins. First, the formulation of the open-loop and closed-loop functions is given. • The analysis of the closed-loop transfer function shows the stability of the closed-loop system against the LCL filter inductance and capacitance variations. • The control law is parameterized based on the future reference trajectory over the control and prediction horizons to deal with the steady-state offsets. The approach for the prediction of the future reference trajectory is discussed. • The optimization routine is performed offline, and the control law can easily be implemented in low-cost processors. • To control the power factor precisely, the grid-side currents are selected as the control variables. This paper presents a Generalized Model Predictive Control (GPC) in the natural reference frame for a 3-phase LCL-filter based grid-tied inverter. The proposed controller can track the sinusoidal reference without steady-state phase and amplitude offsets. This is achieved by parameterizing the control law matrices with considering the future reference trajectory. To cope with the LCL filter resonance, traditional controllers need a damping method. The proposed controller has inherent damping against the LCL filter resonance and extra sensors are avoided. The controller parameters are selected by a sensitivity analysis that guarantees the closed-loop stability. The proposed controller provides high accuracy in controlling active and reactive currents, robustness against grid inductance variations, low real-time computation, and a fixed switching frequency. The simulation and experimental results prove the performance of the controller in tracking the grid-side reference currents. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
