Abstract

A grid-forming wind turbine control method for a diode rectifier unit-based offshore wind power transmission system. A control system for controlling a grid-side converter has a three-layered structure, where a first layer is a combination of an active power controller and a reactive power controller; a second layer is a voltage controller; and a third layer is a current controller. The actual reactive power is represented by a per-unit value of a capacity of a corresponding wind turbine unit. The wind turbine units have the same reactive-power reference value, which is constant and does not change with time. The reactive power controllers of all wind turbine units have the same structure and parameters.
