Abstract
Embedded grids have been increasingly adopted into applications such as More Electric Aircraft where different power converters are interconnected to each other. Interactions between the grid components poses the risk of instability to the system, more so when in the presence of reduced passive filters. An approach of automated and scalable tuning of such embedded grids with consideration for the dynamics introduced by a PLL is presented in this paper. A structured state feedback optimal control approach is proposed which enables a controller to be synthesised is such a way that maximum performance of the grid can be achieved, whilst guaranteeing power converter synchronisation to the grid, and avoiding instability due to converter interaction, and PLL dynamics. © 2017 IEEE.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
