Systems and methods for providing vector control of a grid connected converter with a resonant circuit grid filter

摘要

An example system for controlling a grid-connected energy source using a neural network is described herein. The example system can include a grid-connected converter (“GCC”) operably coupled between an electrical grid and an energy source, a n-order grid filter (e.g., where n is an integer greater than or equal to 2) operably coupled between the electrical grid and the GCC, and a nested-loop controller. The nested-loop controller can have inner and outer control loops and can be operably coupled to the GCC. A d-axis loop can control real power, and a q-axis loop can control reactive power. Additionally, the inner control loop can include a neural network that is configured to optimize dq-control voltages for controlling the GCC. The neural network can account for circuit dynamics of the n-order grid filter while optimizing the dq-control voltages.
