Résumé

Under the presence of nonlinear load, the most existing virtual impedance (VI) methods-based control solution performs poorly in reactive power sharing among droop-operated VSIs in microgrids (MGs). This may be due to the involved estimation techniques for extracting the current harmonics at selected frequencies, which suffer from either poor accuracy of the harmonic estimation and/or the effect of DC offset in the measurements. Such an issue may affect the performance of the virtual impedance control, hence, the system stability. To bridge this gap, the implementation of the virtual impedance based on multiple enhanced second-order generalized integrator (MESOGI) suitable for harmonics and DC-offset estimation/rejection, is proposed in this paper. The MESOGI can offer an accurate estimation of the current quadrature components free from DC offset at selected frequencies, required to implement the virtual impedance control. Therefore, it makes the designed virtual impedance-based control scheme robust to voltage distortions, immune to DC disturbance, and capable of sharing properly the power harmonics. As a result, this may contribute to improving the reactive and harmonic power-sharing between droop-controlled VSIs within an islanded MG. The modeling of the MESOGI scheme and its performance investigation is carried out. In addition, the mathematical model of the implemented virtual impedance is derived. Further, analysis based on the obtained model of the equivalent output impedance including virtual impedance is established to study its effect. Simulation and experimental tests are performed to prove the effectiveness of the control proposal in improving the reactive power sharing under nonlinear load operating conditions.
