This paper addresses the harmonic stability resulting from the current-control interactions of the multiparalleled, LCL-filtered voltage-source converters. First, an alternative impedance model is proposed for the single-loop current control. The control output admittance of the converter is decomposed into a passive filter output admittance in series with an active admittance, which is dependent on the current controller and the time delay. The frequency-domain passivity theory is then applied to the active admittance for system stability analysis. It reveals that the stability region of the single-loop grid current control is not only dependent on the time delay, but affected also by the resonance frequency of the converter-side filter inductor and filter capacitor. Further on, the damping injection based on the discrete derivative controller is proposed to enhance the passivity of individual converters and thereby stabilizing the paralleled converters. Finally, simulation studies and laboratory tests validate the effectiveness of theoretical analysis and controller design.
