An Algebraic-Summation-Based 3-ph Phase-Locked Loop in Aerospace Applications 2010-01-1807
This work deals with modeling and analysis of a 3-phase Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) based on an algebraic-summation scheme rather than the Stationary/Floating frame transformation PLL or synchronous (Delta Q) frame transformation PLL, and operated to lock on either linear or nonlinear load current waveform, and in the presence of a loss of phase or unbalanced 3-phase load. The PLL scheme is described and performance results are presented, demonstrating its ability to estimate phase and frequency of the input signal in aerospace applications in which a Unity Vector production and a Frequency-to-Voltage conversion is performed.
