Four differcnt synchronisation methods for a voltage source converter connected to a three-phase grid are investigated. The methods are adapted for use in a digital controller. The performance of the synchronisation methods is studied by response characteristics of phase-shift steps, frequency steps and low-frequency grid voltage harmonics. The low-pass filtering method can be used only if the frequency of the grid is constant and phase jumps do not occur. If phase jumps occur. the novel spacc vector filtering method is recommended. The extended space vector filtering method is adapted to handle frequency variations and is also preferred if fast frequency vanations occur. This method even has a higher performance than the extended Kalman fdter method, in spite of the large number of calculations that must be performed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
