Analysis and modelling of a phase‐locked loop based on a novel cascade structure of SOGI
Abstract
Abstract In order to attenuate the oscillations on the estimated frequency of a phase‐locked loop (PLL), the effective suppression of low‐order harmonics in grid voltage is a crucial issue in three‐phase grid‐connected inverters, which use the standard PLL based on a double second‐order generalized integrator (DSOGI‐PLL). Analysis shows that the SOGI module exerts a stronger filtering effect in generating the quadrature signal than the in‐phase signal. In this context, two novel cascaded SOGI module filtering structures have been developed, based on which the PLLs are proposed. In comparison to the previously proposed method for addressing the problem of input voltage harmonics, the proposed method has stronger filtering ability and can flexibly select the levels of SOGI module cascading based on the degree of grid voltage distortion to achieve a balance between system dynamic performance and filtering performance. The proposed PLLs' approximation small signal model is established, and the method for designing the system control parameters is also provided. In the case of frequency steps, phase angle jumps, harmonic injection, and unbalanced voltage sag, Matlab modelling and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed PLLs can efficiently extract the frequency and phase of the fundamental positive sequence component and behave better in steady‐state and dynamic performance.
