Fig.4 shows the single phase equivalent circuit of the LCL
filter connected to grid. Control objective is to ensure unity
power factor current injection into grid. It is assumed that
the system is a three phase balanced system. Two current
sensors are used for sensing converter side inductor currents
and the third phase current is computed by the controller by
negating the sum of the first two currents. These currents
need to be sensed to provide overcurrent protection to the
converter. Controlling is carried out in α-β domain. To im-
prove the dynamic performance, feed-forward compensation
is provided by adding sensed grid voltage to the output of
the controller. The control system is shown in Fig.7. It has
