Summary:This paper presents a comparative analysis of grid synchronization techniques for grid-connected power converters. The current paradigm in the power distribution system is the penetration of power inverters into the existing grid network. The analysis has been done through a comparative study method between the synchronous generator-droop control technique and the phase-locked loop (PLL). The main objective is to prove that droop control can emulate the conventional synchronization technique, PLL. The MATLAB simulation results have been provided to verify the studies.
