| Abstract: |
Virtual oscillator control (VOC) is an emerging grid-forming technique that has gained significant attention due to its fast dynamic response, lower computational burden compared to synchronous generator emulation-based methods, and superior transient performance. Among the different VOC approaches suggested in the literature, those based on the Andronov-Hopf oscillator (AHO) have shown superior performance. This paper provides a concise review of recent advancements in VOC strategies, with the primary focus on the AHO structure and their ancillary services, including dispatchability, virtual inertia, damping, and fault ride-through capability. Furthermore, a generalised small-signal model is derived to support control design and stability analysis across different VOC structures. The impact of virtual inertia on transient performance is then examined through both small-signal modelling and experimental validation on a 2.5 kVA single-phase inverter. |
