This article proposes a new grid impedance detection method incorporating the complex coefficient filter (CCF) with full-order capacitor current observer for a T-type three-level grid-connected inverter controlled by the inverter output current feedback. Compared with conventional CCF impedance detection algorithms, the proposed method reduces the number of current sensors and detects the grid impedance accurately. First, based on the sampled inverter output current and grid-connected voltage signals, the grid-connected current is estimated. Then, the CCF method is used to extract harmonics from the grid-connected current and voltage signals to calculate the grid impedance. Finally, the correctness of the full-order capacitor current observer is verified by simulation and the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm are verified experimentally based on a laboratory prototype.
