Abstract:
Single-phase phase-locked loops (PLLs) are popular for the synchronization and control of single-phase grid-connected converters. They are also widely used for monitoring and diagnostic purposes in the power and energy areas. In recent years, a large number of single-phase PLLs with different structures and properties have been proposed in the literature. The main aim of this paper is to provide a review of these PLLs. To this end, the single-phase PLLs are first classified into two major categories: 1) power-based PLLs and 2) quadrature signal generation-based PLLs. The members of each category are then described and their pros and cons are discussed. This paper provides a deep insight into characteristics of different single-phase PLLs, and therefore, can be considered as a reference for researchers and engineers.
