Simulation and analysis of DQ frame and P+Resonant controls for voltage source inverter to distributed generation

An inverter control design in DQ reference frame takes 3-phase sinusoidal signals and converts them to the DQ-frame to make a 2-phase based DC variable control. The error is calculated by subtracting the feedback from reference and then feedding it to PI controllers. The outputs of PI controllers are of the voltage form and transferred back to the ABC frame and fed to SPWM modules. P+Resonant controllers suggest establishing the control strategy in stationary (alpha-beta) frame. In this frame the axis are fix and three phase variables are mapped in a rotating vector with the same angular speed of the original signals. The P+Resonant controller has zero steady state error at the resonant frequency. This paper explains how to apply DQ-frame and P+Resonant for inverter controller design for grid connected single-phase Voltage Source Inverters (VSI). To evaluate the effectiveness of both control techniques, it is also presented simulated results with application of these controllers.
