With the increase of the renewable energy generator capacity, the requirements of the power system for grid-connected converters are evolve, which leads to diverse control schemes and increased complexity of systematic stability analysis. Although various frequency-domain models are developed to identify oscillation causes, the discrepancies between them are rarely studied. This study aims to clarify these discrepancies and provide circuit insights for stability analysis by using different frequency-domain models. This study emphasizes the limitations of assuming that the transfer function of the self-stable converter does not have right half-plane (RHP) poles. To ensure that the self-stable converters are represented by a frequency-domain model without RHP poles, the applicability of this model of grid-following (GFL) and grid-forming (GFM) converters is discussed. This study recommends that the GFM converters with ideal sources should be represented in parallel with the $P/Q-\theta/V$ admittance model rather than the V-I impedance model. Two cases are conducted to illustrate the rationality of the $P/Q-\theta/V$ admittance model. Additionally, a hybrid frequency-domain modeling framework and stability criteria are proposed for the power system with several GFL and GFM converters. The stability criteria eliminates the need to check the RHP pole numbers in the non-passive subsystem when applying the Nyquist stability criterion, thereby reducing the complexity of stability analysis. Simulations are carried out to validate the correctness of the frequency-domain model and the stability criteria.

For high-power and high-performance speed control system, speed feedback signals are generally required. The employment of sensorless control technology makes the installation of the system easier and lower-cost, while its reliability needs to be improved. The robustness of the improved instantaneous reactive power based on the quadrature model reference adaptive system (MRAS) with respect to the variation of the motor inductance parameter is improved by selecting the appropriate reference model and adjustable model. The improved instantaneous reactive power (Q) based on model reference adaptive system (Q-MRAS) algorithm is studied by small signal analysis, and the stability of the control system is verified by the Routh Stability Criterion. The simulation models and experimental platform for the proposed control are built in the laboratory. The feasibility and superiority are verified by the corresponding simulation and experimental results.

Recently, the large-scale integration of power electronic-based renewable energy power plants has changed the operation and response mechanism of the power system, resulting in several emerging oscillation issues that have seriously been threatening the system's stability. It helps us to recognize the similarities and differences among the triggering causes and formation mechanisms of oscillation scenarios. Following several typical oscillation events in the real world and the timescale decomposition method, this paper comprehensively reviews the wide-bandwidth oscillation study from the aspects of the analysis methods, possible cause, mechanism, and mitigation solution. The paper provides a perspective to classify the oscillations in the modern power systems on the basis of the oscillation frequency and the main oscillation module. This classification framework involves not only emerging oscillations in the power system with large-scale renewable energy sources integration but also includes typical oscillations in traditional power systems. It also systematically presents the relative relationship, development process, and inner influence between emerging oscillations and typical oscillations. Based on this review, the future research is suggested to focus on the relationship between different analytical methods or oscillation mechanisms, as well as the stability risk assessment of hybrid alternating current and direct current power systems.

The diode-rectifier unit (DRU)-based high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission system offers an economical solution for offshore wind power transmission. However, this approach requires offshore wind farms to establish a strong grid voltage. To meet this requirement while fulfilling the dynamic characteristics of the DRU, this paper proposes an advanced grid-forming (GFM) control strategy for offshore wind turbines connected to DRU-HVDC. The strategy incorporates a P-U controller and a Q-$\omega$ controller based on reactive power synchronization. Furthermore, a novel virtual power-based pre-synchronization method and an adaptive virtual impedance technique are integrated into the proposed GFM control to improve system performance during wind turbine (WT) integration and low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) scenarios. The virtual power-based pre-synchronization method reduces voltage spikes during the integration of new wind turbines, while the adaptive virtual impedance technique effectively suppresses fault currents during low-voltage faults, enabling faster recovery. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed GFM control strategy, demonstrating improved start-up and LVRT performance through the pre-synchronization and adaptive virtual impedance methods.

Aiming at the problem that the position control accuracy of the traditional semi-closed-loop control and the vibration caused by the nonlinear characteristics of the system are easily affected by the full closed-loop control, a double-loop position feedback control based on the state information feedback of the motor and the load is proposed. Based on the double-loop position feedback control framework, a vibration suppression method combining the linear extended state observer, torque feedback compensation and speed feedforward is introduced. The simulation results show that the proposed control method effectively suppresses load vibration, improves the system’s servo control performance, and maintains position control accuracy.

In electrolytic capacitor-less permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive systems, the resonance between the inductor and the dc-link capacitor degrades the grid current quality. In this letter, a novel inductor voltage feedback-based active damping method is proposed, which reduces the error and time delay of the resonant component extraction, expands the bandwidth of the active damping control loop, achieves enhanced suppression of grid current resonance and reduces both the required inductance and associated costs. Experimental results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
