摘要

The grid voltage phase and frequency are crucial information in control of most grid-connected power electronic-based equipment. Most often, a phase-locked loop (PLL) is employed for this purpose. A PLL is a closed-loop feedback control system that the phase of its output signal is related to the phase of its input signal. Arguably, the simplest PLL is a type-1 PLL. The type-1 PLLs are characterized by having only one integrator in their control loop and, therefore, having a high stability margin. However, they suffer from a serious drawback: They cannot achieve zero average steady-state phase error in the presence of frequency drifts. To overcome this drawback of type-1 PLLs, and at the same time, to achieve a fast dynamic response and high filtering capability, a modified PLL structure is proposed in this letter. The proposed PLL has a similar structure to a type-1 PLL, but from the control point of view is a type-2 control system. For this reason, it is called the quasi-type-1 PLL. The effectiveness of the proposed PLL is confirmed through simulation and experimental results and comparison with standard PLLs.
