Many renewable energy resources are integrated into power systems via grid-following (GFL) inverters which rely on a phase-locked loop (PLL) for grid synchronization. During severe faults, GFL vulnerable to transient instability, often leading disconnection from the grid. This paper aims elucidate interaction mechanisms and define stability boundaries of two inverters, including GFL, grid-forming (GFM), or grid-supporting (GSP) inverters. First, generalized large-signal expression...
