<![CDATA[Integration of renewable energy systems (RESs) to the grid leads to various power quality issues. A proper control approach for the interfaced inverter is required to mitigate the uncertainties caused in the grid due to the RESs association to maintain the grid stability. The presence of harmonics and DC offset in the input grid voltage of a phase lock loop (PLL) leads to inaccurate phase estimation due to fundamental frequency oscillations. Though many advanced generalized integrator (GI) based PLLs have been developed still there is a need for a robust PLL for synchronization with faster dynamic response, both the harmonics and DC offset rejection ability with precise estimation. This paper proposes some simple yet effective advanced PLLs employing low pass filters (LPFs) in the existing GI based PLLs for faster and accurate phase angle estimation for seamless synchronization under complex grid circumstances. These advanced generalized integrators with LPFs (GI-LPF) based PLLs will provide enhanced and robust synchronization for the grid integrated RESs thereby addressing multiple power quality issues like voltage unbalance, harmonics and DC offsets. The simulation based comparative analysis of the proposed controllers confirm their effective disturbance rejection capability under complex grid conditions by providing advanced and precise response.]]>
