Summary: This paper proposes a novel extended Kalman filter algorithm based on the adaptive maximum correntropy criterion (AMCCEKF) to improve the robustness of state of charge (SOC) estimation in Li-ion battery management systems. The algorithm uses the Gaussian kernel function as the cost function to reconstruct the state error variance and the measurement noise variance. A kernel width adaptive update strategy is designed to address the constraints of fixed kernel width on SOC estimation performance. In addition, an open circuit voltage (OCV) correction strategy based on terminal voltage innovation and OCV-SOC curve gradient is designed to reduce the impact of non-Gaussian noise on SOC estimation.

Summary: Parallel compensation is commonly used for reactive power compensations to improve the voltage quality of power grids, but direct-drive wind farms connected to the parallel-compensated AC grid may face oscillation risks. To address this issue, a small-signal model of multiple direct-drive wind turbines connected to the parallel-compensated AC grid is developed, and the oscillation characteristics are analyzed using the eigenvalue-based method. The results reveal that the medium-frequency oscillation within the wind farm is primarily influenced by the DC voltage outer loop control, while the sub-synchronous oscillation between the wind farm and the grid is mainly affected by the phase-locked loop control and parallel-compensated AC grid. Furthermore, the oscillation interactions between wind turbine generators in homogeneous and heterogeneous wind farms are investigated, indicating strong interactions in homogeneous wind farms and weak interactions in heterogeneous wind farms. The theoretical analysis is validated through PSCAD/EMTDC simulations.
