This paper proposes the PLL method using positive sequence voltage which is estimated by full-order state observer to find an accurate phase angle under the condition of unbalanced utility voltage. The proposed method uses the full-order state observer instead of existing method(APF All Pass Filter) to find a positive sequence of a utility voltage and this proposed method improves transient response of an estimated phase angle when a three-phase utility voltage becomes unbalanced. To compare proposed method withexisting method, experiments have been done for a phase angle detection of utility voltage when a three-phase utility voltage becomes unbalanced. Their results show that transient state response of proposed method is improved.

Dynamic voltage restorer(DVR) is now more preferable enhancement than other power quality enhancement in industry to reduce the impact of voltage faults, especially voltage sags to sensitive loads. The main controllers for DVR consists of PLL(phase locked loop), compensation voltage calculator and voltage compensator. PLL detects the voltage faults and phase. Compensation voltage calculator calculates the reference voltage from the source voltage and phase. With calculated compensation voltage from PLL, voltage compensator restores the source voltage. If PLL detect ideal phase, compensation voltage calculator calculates ideal compensation voltage. Therefore, PLL for DVR is very important. This paper proposes the new method of PLL in DVR. First, the power circuit of DVR system is analyzed in order to compensate the voltage sags. Based on the analysis, new PLL for improving transient response of DVR is proposed. The proposed method uses band rejection filter(BRF) at q-axis in synchronous flame. In order to calculate compensation voltage in commercial instruments, the PQR theory is used. Proposed PLL method is demonstrated through simulation using Matlab-Simulink and experiment, and by checking load voltage, confirms operation of the DVR

In this paper, the design of robust DSC-PLL(Delayed Signal Cancellation Phase Locked Loop) is proposed for coping with frequency variation. This method shows significant performance for detection of fundamental positive sequence component voltage when the grid voltage is polluted by grid unbalance and frequency variation. The feedback frequency estimation of DSC-PLL is tracking the drift in the phase by unbalance and frequency variation. The robust DSC PLL is to present the analysis on method and performance under frequency variations. These compensation algorithms can correct for discrepancies of changing the frequency within maximum 193[ms] and improve traditional DSC-PLL. Linear interpolation method is adopted to reduce the discretized errors in the digital implementation of the PLL. For verification of robust characteristic, PLL methods are implemented on FPGA with a discrete fixed point based. The proposed method is validated by both Matlab/Simulink and experimental results based on FPGA(XC7Z030).

The new method is proposed to improve the dynamics of the phase angle detector during abrupt voltage dip caused by a grid fault. Usually, LPF(low pass filter) is used in the feedback loop of SRF(Synchronous Reference Frame) - PLL (Phase Locked Loop) system because the measured grid voltage contains harmonic distortions and sensor noises. A better transient response can be obtained with the proposed design method for SRF-PLL by the analysis of linearized model of the PLL system including LPF. Furthermore, in the proposed method, the controller gain and LPF cut-off frequency are changed from normal value to transient value when the voltage disturbance is detected. This paper shows the feasibility and the usefulness of the proposed methods through the computer simulation and the experiment.

The design and implementation of Ku-Band frequency synthesizer was accomplished by the use of PLL and frquency multiple method. Design procedure and operation characteristics of PLL circuit were analyzed on the basis of control theory to synthesize about 1 GHz frequency which should be stable. By connecting frequency doubler and frequency eighth multiplier to the designed PLL circuit in series, Ku-Band frequency was synthesized. The validity of design method of Ku-Band frequency synthesizer was verified through experimental results.

They can substitute for abnormal phase to guarantee the synchronization in the various grid fault conditions. The performance of novel PLL with moving average method is verified through simulations.

The phase-locked loop (PLL) is widely used in grid-tie inverter applications to achieve a synchronization between the inverter and the grid. However, its performance deteriorates when the grid voltage is not purely sinusoidal due to the harmonics and the frequency deviation. Therefore, a high-performance PLL must be designed for single-phase inverter applications to guarantee the quality of the inverter output. This paper proposes a simple method that can improve the performance of the PLL for the single-phase inverter under a non-sinusoidal grid voltage condition. The proposed PLL can accurately estimate the fundamental frequency and theta component of the grid voltage even in the presence of harmonic components. In addition, its transient response is fast enough to track a grid voltage within two cycles of the fundamental frequency. The effectiveness of the proposed PLL is confirmed through the PSIM simulation and experiments.

This paper proposes the fuzzy-PLL control system for fast response time and precision control of automation systems. The conventional PLL has not only a jitter noise caused from such a demerit of the wide dead zone, but also a long delay interval that makes a high speed operation unable. In order to solve the problems, the proposed system, which provides the improvement in terms of the control region in high speed and precision control, first used the fuzzy control method for fast response time and when the error reaches the preset value, used the PLL method designing new PFD for precision control. The new designed multi-PFD improves the dead zone, jitter noise and response characteristics, which is consists of P-PFD(Positive edge triggered PFD) and N-PFD(Negative edge triggered PFD) and can improve response characteristics to increase PFD gain.
