Abstract

A dc terminal impedance model of voltage-source converter (VSC) is required to analyze the stability of multiterminal high-voltage direct current system. This article proposes a comprehensive dc terminal impedance model for conventional three-phase two-level VSC under different control modes. The control strategy includes inner decoupled current control and outer control, the latter contains dc voltage control, active/reactive power control, and droop control for grid-connected VSC and ac voltage control for VSC connected to a load. When a VSC is connected to the ac grid, the phase-locked loop (PLL) is also taken into account. The influences of PLL dynamics, control time delay and dead time on the dc-side impedance are explained. Also, how the parameters of the inner current control and outer control affect the characteristics of dc terminal impedance is analyzed in detail. Finally, experimental measurements verify the proposed impedance models and analysis.
