is the damping resistor used to damp out the
oscillations occurring due to the resonance resulted from LC
filter. The values of L,C (filter capacitance) and damping
resistor R

have been referred from [7]. Power stage model is
helpful in getting a dc operating point so as to design a
controller for it.

B. Small Signal Model
The small signal model is then derived from the power
stage model by giving a perturbation and then linearizing
around an operating point.
An operating point is defined as follows
Dc supply voltage= V
dc
d-axis duty cycle= D
d
q-axis duty cycle= D
q
d-axis current = I
d
q-axis current = I
q
d-axis grid voltage= V
dg
q-axis grid voltage= V
qg
For deriving small signal model a perturbation is given around
the operating point which is given as follows

III. TRANSFER FUNCTIONS
The small signal model derived in Fig.3 is then used to
extract open loop transfer functions. The transfer functions of
interest are 1. Controls to the filter inductor currents 2.
Controls to the grid voltages.
For simplification in deriving transfer functions the grid
voltage has been oriented along d-axis. So V
dg
is of constant
amplitude as grid voltage is having constant amplitude and V
qg
=0. From Fig.3 concerned transfer functions are derived in
frequency domain as follows.

As LC filter has been used between the inverter and grid, it
is prone to occurrence of resonance [8]. The resonant
frequency is given as follows

(18)
In this paper resonant frequency f
0
is 993Hz considering the
values of L and C from Table.1. In Fig.4 resonance can be
observed i.e at the frequency of 993 Hz there is a phase drop
of and at the same time there is a peak in the magnitude
plot. However, a suitable damping resistor R
c
has been used
for damping out the oscillations at resonance.

IV. CONCLUSIONS
In this paper a three phase grid connected VSI was studied
and its power stage as well as small signal model were derived
and then transfer functions. From the study, the following
interpretations are made. The obtained Bode plot of control to
grid voltage the effect of resonance was observed. The small
signal model and transfer functions enunciated in this paper
will be helpful in designing a controller for the three phase
grid connected inverter system to ensure stable operating point
during uncertainty in the grid parameters such as sudden
increase in load, grid fault, and abrupt changes in the voltage
at PCC.

The transformation of three phases a-b-c is first done to two phase
