Abstract

The article delves into the stability analysis and enhanced control of voltage source converters (VSCs) in weak grids, leveraging impedance models. It introduces the concept of impedance modeling analysis for stability determination, including the use of positive and negative sequence impedances and the novel concept of mirror frequency coupling. The study also explores the application of virtual impedance control to enhance system stability and suppress faults, such as overcurrent and frequency fluctuations. The authors propose a variable virtual impedance control (VVIC) technique that adaptively regulates output impedance and provides virtual inertia during faults. The article further compares VIC and VVIC, demonstrating the superior stability performance of VVIC in weak grids. The research is significant for ensuring reliable operation of VSCs in renewable energy systems, addressing the challenges posed by weak grids and ensuring stable power integration.
