Abstract

Synchronous power controller (SPC) has emerged as a suitable technique to equip grid-connected inverters with grid supporting functionalities such as inertial emulation and frequency/voltage support by mimicking the behavior of synchronous machines. Although the feasibility of the SPC has been experimentally verified under various operating conditions, parameter tuning for the SPC to ensure a stable inverter system has not been adequately addressed in the literature. To fill this gap, this paper presents a robust control design for the SPC to ensure its stable operation under the grid impedance variation. The proposed design procedure consists of system modelling and robust optimal parameter selection by using linear matrix inequality approach. The effectiveness of the proposed control design is proven by means of simulations and experiments.
