Abstract :
This letter aims to present a generalized vector-based formulation for calculating the grid-side current reference to control reactive power delivered to the grid. Strategies for current reference generation were implemented on the abc stationary reference frame, and their effectiveness was demonstrated experimentally, perhaps validating the theoretical analysis even under grid fault conditions.
