A new optimized pole placement strategy of grid-connected inverter with LCL-filter based on state variable feedback and state observer

The LCCL control strategy, which was brought forward as a solution for the resonance of LCL-filter, provides good steady-state performance but unsatisfactory dynamic performance. In this paper, based on an improved discrete state space model and state observer of the LCCL control, a new optimized pole placement strategy is proposed to achieve the best damping performance of the whole system with LCL-filter, with which the dynamic performance of the system can be greatly improved without additional sensors. Furthermore, the proposed method has almost the same performance in suppressing power grid disturbances and the non-linearity of an inverter, resulting in the same steady-state performance compared with LCCL control strategy. A 10 kW grid-connected inverter with LCL-filter prototype is set up to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy and observer configuration, as well as the overall improvement of system performance.
