Research on the control strategy of LCL grid-connected inverters based on improved auto disturbance rejection.

Abstract

The grid-connected inverter is the key to ensure stable, reliable, safe, and efficient operation of the power generation system; the quality of the grid-connected output current waveform directly affects the performance of the entire power generation system. To improve the anti-interference performance and reduce the output current harmonic content of the grid-connected inverter, an improved control strategy that combined repetitive control (RC) and auto disturbance rejection control (ADRC) is designed in this paper. Firstly, decoupled the ADRC to realize the individual adaptation between tracking performance parameters and anti-interference performance parameters of the controller, through which the difficulty of adjusting parameters is reduced. Secondly, the control approach is devised by adding RC to ADRC. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in this paper, detailed experimental studies are conducted using proportional integral control, traditional ADRC, and the proposed method under normal power grids, weak power grids, and periodic disturbances. And dynamic performance simulation experiment is done to verify the dynamic performance of the self-disturbance rejection controller before and after the addition of RC links. The results indicated the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method. Finally, after simulation, the steady state and dynamic performance are conducted on a hardware testing platform. The impacts of the obtained results indicate the effectiveness and feasibility of the control algorithm proposed, the ability to suppress intermediate frequency disturbances is improved, the bandwidth of the auto disturbance rejection controller is expanded, and the harmonic content of the output current is depressed.
