Abstract
In a weak grid, especially with a grid-voltage proportional feedforward controller, the grid-tied inverter tends to interact with the grid impedance and thus suffers from poor power quality and even instability. In order to improve the stability, serial-parallel virtual impedance based on the derivative controllers of grid current and voltage is proposed in this paper. With the aim of optimizing the performance of the inverter for a variety of grid impedance, these derivative coefficients are adaptively tuned by the constraint of a minimum leading phase which is determined by the phase margin and the current tracking response. With this proposed adaptive virtual impedance, the grid-tied inverter can operate stably under a wide variety of grid impedance and voltage harmonic rejection performance is also improved. Simulation and experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method and design methodology.
