Coordinated Control of RSC and GSC for DFIG System under Harmonically Distorted Grid Considering Inter-Harmonics
For improving the performance of a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) system under a harmonically distorted grid, this paper proposes a coordinated control strategy which is effective for grid inter-harmonics as well as grid integer harmonics. In order to suppress the negative impacts caused by grid harmonics, including inter-harmonics, this paper introduces an additional harmonics suppression controller, which contains a Chebyshev high-pass filter and a modified lead element considering the delay compensation. The proposed controller is employed in the rotor side converter (RSC) and grid side converter (GSC). Based on the proposed harmonics suppression controller, a coordinated control strategy between RSC and GSC is developed, in which the control targets, including the sinusoidal output current, constant power, or steady generator torque, can be achieved for DFIG, while GSC is responsible for maintaining the sinusoidal total current to guarantee the power quality of the grid connection. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by the theoretical analysis, and the experimental results derived using a 1 kW DFIG system validate the correctness of the theoretical analysis.
