The performance enhancement of an inverter-based grid-connected system necessitates a fast and accurate dynamic response in terms of estimating three-phase grid voltage attributes. The synchronous reference frame phase-locked loop and/or the frequency-locking (i.e., frequency-locked loop) approaches are widely used in practical applications. However, due to the phase/frequency feedback loops, the aforementioned parameter estimation schemes may experience instability and provide a slow dynamic response. This work presents a PLL-less grid synchronization solution for three-phase applications to counter the slower dynamic response and demonstrate better immunity against the non-ideality of a three-phase grid. In order to remove even and odd-order harmonics and extract the fundamental frequency positive sequence (FFPS), the proposed method employs a combination of band pass filters (CBPF). Additionally, a novel frequency estimation algorithm is developed, which accurately estimates the angular three-phase grid frequency. Furthermore, the phase angle and amplitude are adaptively estimated using an off-line error-resolving approach, which is derived from the transfer function of the proposed pre-filtering solution. Finally, the experimental findings validate the robustness of the current proposal.

Due to safety considerations and the challenges involved in tracking the maximum output of series-connected cells, solar photovoltaic (PV) arrays are generally operated at lower voltage levels. A multiport converter can be used to interface telecom DC loads, typically rated at 48 V and powered by PV arrays and battery energy storage systems. The grid integration of the system improves reliability while lowering the BESS rating. This work proposes a sliding mode control-based power flow management controller that maintains the load voltage of a telecom DC load, allows maximum power extraction from the PV module, and facilitates power sharing with AC grid. A voltage source converter and a high-gain bidirectional converter exchange power with the AC grid. A second-order generalized integral algorithm-based voltage source converter control is provided to inject/absorb active power, reactive power, and eliminate the harmonics of the telecom AC load. Detailed simulation studies employing MATLAB software are performed to validate the functionality of the converter as well as the power flow management control. Moreover, the system’s performance is evaluated using a laboratory-developed experimental prototype.

Small power (3 kVA) residential units are typically served by single-phase distribution systems, and single-phase Voltage Source Inverters (VSI) are commonly used to connect photovoltaic panels to single-phase grids. Therefore, the design and control of grid-connected inverters are crucial topics. In this paper, DC-bus voltage control and dq axis-based current control method are applied to a single-phase grid-connected inverter. The T/4 Delay Phase Locked Loop (T/4 Delay PLL) technique is used to obtain phase and frequency information of the grid voltage. Proportional-integral (PI) controllers are designed to control the DC-bus voltage of the system to stabilize power flow. The current control is designed using a PI controller on the dq axes. For real-time experimentation, the Controller-Hardware-in-the-Loop (C-HIL) method is used. The HIL hardware can perform hours of computer simulations in real-time and accurately mimic experimental implementations. As a result, the use of HIL is found to be highly effective in the design of power electronic converters in terms of both hardware and control.

Having this in mind, this paper presents an auto-tuning algorithm for PID-type controller that implements straightforward and low computational load techniques for the estimation of the basic set of parameters for PID controller design. A combined approach to the estimation of limit-cycle resonance frequency and amplitude is proposed, which uses an extended Kalman filter (EKF) [30,31] as the estimator of free oscillator model resonance frequency, cascaded to a second-order generalized integrator (SOGI) filter [32] used as the estimator of the limit-cycle oscillations amplitude, with both estimators having a relatively low complexity and computational load. Based on the estimated limit-cycle oscillation parameters, Takahashi modifications of Ziegler-Nichols rules [33] are used for subsequent tuning of discrete-time PI and PID controllers. ...

This paper presents a method for the estimation of key parameters of limit cycle oscillations (amplitude and frequency) during a relay experiment used for automatic tuning of proportional-integral (PI) and proportional-integral-derivative (PID) feedback controllers. The limit cycle parameter estimator is based on the first-order extended Kalman filter (EKF) for resonance frequency estimation, to which a second-order generalized integrator (SOGI) is cascaded for the purpose of limit cycle amplitude estimation. Based on thus-obtained parameters of the limit cycle oscillations, the ultimate gain and the ultimate period of the limit cycle oscillations are estimated. These are subsequently used for the tuning of PI and PID controller according to Takahashi modifications of Ziegler-Nichols tuning rules. The proposed PI and PID controller auto-tuning method is verified by means of simulations and experimentally on the heat and air-flow experimental setup for the case of air temperature feedback control. The results have shown that the proposed auto-tuning system based on relay control experiment for the heat and air-flow process PI/PID temperature control can capture the ultimate gain and period parameters fairly quickly in simulations and in experiments. Subsequent controller tuning according to Takahashi modifications of Ziegler-Nichols rules using thus-obtained ultimate point parameters can provide favourable closed-loop load disturbance rejection, particularly in the case of PID controller.

... Having the above discussion in mind, this paper proposes an automatic tuning algorithm based on a suitable control-oriented process model of the torsional oscillator and utilization of a modified-mixer phase detector phase locked-loop (MMPD-PLL) system (Thacker et al. 2011) equipped with adaptive second-order generalized integrator (SOGI) filter (Xiao et al. 2017) for drive resonance mode key feature extraction. This contribution shows that a single-stage closed-loop experiment with the default-tuned proportional-integral (PI) speed controller can obtain sufficient information about the key drill-string parameters to accurately tune the external active damping system based on torsional torque feedback (Pavković et al. 2019a) for different characteristic drillstring configurations, which is able to suppress the drill-string torsional vibrations normally occurring during drilling operations. ...
... The auto-tuning algorithm in Fig. 5 receives the motor torque reference m R that is high-pass filtered first to remove any offset that may be present due to motor-side friction losses (Coulomb friction) in the gearbox and motor bearings which the top-drive Principal block diagram representation of the automatic tuning system based on MMPD-PLL resonance frequency estimator and adaptive SOGI band-pass filter motor speed control loop needs to account for. The high-pass filtered torque signal m RF is then forwarded to the adaptive band-pass filter implemented as a second-order generalized integrator (SOGI), see Xiao et al. (2017). SOGI extracts the main harmonic component in the vicinity of its central frequency c and is also capable of reconstructing both the direct (in-phase) torque reference component m Rd and its orthogonal counterpart m Rq (delayed in phase by π /2 with respect to the direct component). ...

This paper presents a single-step automatic tuning procedure and an estimator of key parameters of the drill-string system used in deep drilling applications aimed at precise tuning of an external vibration suppression system based on speed control loop of the drilling electrical drive tuned for “stiff” motor-side speed control (the so-called speed source behavior), and the external drill-string torque feedback used for torsional vibration active damping. The automatic tuning procedure is carried out for the case when the drill-string and drill-bit are hoisted from the bottom of the well and the drilling electrical drive briefly enters the limit cycle oscillatory behavior under stiff speed control. The proposed auto-tuning system features a suitable control-oriented process model of the torsional oscillator and a modified-mixer phase detector phase locked-loop equipped with adaptive second-order generalized integrator (band-pass filter) for the extraction of key features of the drive resonance mode. The overall control system design relies on the so-called damping optimum criterion which guarantees a desired level of closed-loop system damping. The functionality of the proposed adaptive control system with automatic tuning of the vibration suppression control strategy has been systematically verified by means of comprehensive simulations, and the effectiveness of the drill-string parameter estimator has also been confirmed using the previously recorded field data to illustrate its robustness in the presence of realistic measurement noise.

This paper offers a detailed analysis as well as a tuning and discretization approach of the presented frequency-fixed dual second order generalized integrator based phase-locked loop (FFDSOGI-PLL) for three-phase power systems. The method combines different single- and three-phase PLL approaches by ensuring high phase- and frequency tracking properties. The comparison with the standard frequency-variable DSOGI-PLL and three different recently published three-phase frequency and phase-angle estimation systems shows, that this approach gives a fast and stable phase and frequency detection of the grid voltage with very low computational burden. The results are applicable to, for instance, photovoltaic or frequency converters or active power filters.

In this paper, an integral‐type half‐tangent phase‐locked loop (IHTan‐PLL) is proposed for the varying‐frequency AC grids of more electric aircraft (MEA). First, the performance of the synchronous reference frame phase‐locked loop (SRF‐PLL) and half‐tangent phase‐locked loop (HTan‐PLL) is discussed from a large‐signal viewpoint. When the frequency changes largely, the SRF‐PLL has many oscillations and endures a rather long transient process. The HTan‐PLL can address the large frequency jumps. However, for the varying‐frequency AC grids with harmonic disturbances, the HTan‐PLL still has oscillations in estimating the frequency when the frequency jumps largely. To enhance the performance of the SRF‐PLL and HTan‐PLL, the IHTan‐PLL is developed for the varying‐frequency AC grids with harmonic disturbances. The IHTan‐PLL performs better than the SRF‐PLL and HTan‐PLL in addressing the large frequency jumps. Specifically, under any large frequency changes, the IHTan‐PLL still converges to the equilibrium point (0,0), and no oscillations emerge. In addition, the IHTan‐PLL has better steady‐state accuracy in estimating the frequency than the SRF‐PLL and HTan‐PLL. The experimental results also demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed IHTan‐PLL.

In recent years, integrating renewable energy sources (RESs) has achieved significant attention due to the growing demand for sustainable energy solutions. Inverter-interfaced Islanded Microgrids (IGs) have appeared as an advantageous approach to integrating RESs into the power grid. Grid-forming inverters (GFIs) are a critical component of IGs, and their synchronization is essential for stable and reliable operation. The literature has widely proposed soft transition, pre-synchronization, and re-synchronization to synchronize IGs to the main grid. However, methods for synchronizing GFIs in the islanded microgrid are restricted. Parallel operation of GFIs is required to guarantee the high power demand of IG and improve voltage-frequency stability. For parallel operation, GFIs must be synchronized with each other. In the conventional synchronization control systems that are highly nonlinear, the linear proportional-integral (PI) controllers are commonly used in synchronization loops without considering the nonlinearity resulting from the initial condition dependency and cross-coupling. Thus, conventional synchronization methods can be exposed to concerns of stable operation, narrow operation area, and performance degradation. This study proposes a new linearized synchronization control system for GFIs in IGs. In this way, it is possible to analytically design robust linear controllers and ensure a stable operation, high performance, and wide (full) operation area. In addition, a new soft-commissioning method is proposed to deactivate synchronization loops and soft-start the synced GFI. The proposed system has been tested in real-time and CHIL hardware setups for two 550 kW GFIs operating in parallel, and the results in the perfect agreement are presented in this study.
... To achieve DPLL in MCR-WPT systems, it is necessary to detect the phase relationship between the current and voltage of the primary coil in the system. The traditional phase difference detection method uses a comparison circuit to convert the current signal into a pulse width modulation (PWM) wave and inputs it together with the original voltage signal into the capture units of the programmable chips to obtain the phase difference between the current and voltage [18][19][20]. This approach is simple, but the capture units of the programmable chips have inherent sampling errors that cannot be overcome, making it difficult to meet high-precision requirements. ...
