Finite-gain Repetitive Controller For Harmonic Sharing Improvement In A Vsm Microgrid

In this paper, a Finite-Gain Repetitive Controller (FGRC) is proposed to improve current harmonic distribution in microgrids based on  Virtual Synchronous Machines (VSMs). Electronic power interfaces are commonly used in microgrids for renewable energy integration and a control  method based on a VSM represents an attractive alternative to conventional approaches. This control method has several advantages, however, a number of issues still need to be properly addressed, including those of power quality and harmonic current sharing Stability, transient performance and performance under frequency variations are studied analytically. When compared to other control options, the method proposed here is capable of dealing with all harmonics simultaneously. A comparative analysis is provided to emphasise the contributions of this work.
