A Virtual Inertia Control Strategy Based on Multi-order lead-lag Compensation

In view of the contradiction between active power steady-state and dynamic characteristics regulation of VSG based on the existing first-order virtual inertia algorithm operating in grid- connected mode and multi-paralleled mode, a virtual inertia control strategy based on multi-stage lead-lag compensation is proposed in this paper. By cascading a multi-stage lead-lag link in the first -order virtual inertia forward channel, the control freedom of VSG grid-connected and paralleled system is increased, so that the zero and poles can be freely configured. Furthermore, a first-order lead-lag link is taken as an example to analyze its effect on the output active power steady-state and dynamic characteristics of VSG grid-connected system and paralleled systems. Through reasonable configuration of the second-order virtual inertia parameters, the system damping ratio can be increased and the power oscillation can be eliminated while its steady-state characteristics are not changed under the circumstance of a large inertia. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.
