The inverter-interfaced distributed generation (IIDG) units are operated either in grid-forming or grid-feeding modes. To this end, the inner control loops are embedded into the inverters' control system to achieve the control objectives. However, the dynamic performance of IIDG units are greatly affected by their control system and also by the grid's impedance characteristics. Optimal voltage regulator (OVR) previously has been proposed where the conventional inner loops have been replaced by the state feedback loop to compensate for the LC filter dynamics in order to achieve the desired dynamic performance. Utilizing the OVR, a universal model is proposed in this article which is useful for both grid-feeding and grid-forming modes. Each mode of operation is achieved through impedance shaping as a feedback gain adjustment. To this end, the optimal impedance shaping for the universal model is determined based on the desired dynamic performance, control objectives and grid's impedance characteristics. Eigenvalue-Analysis and simulation results prove the effectiveness of the universal model in the grid-feeding and grid-forming modes, in unbalanced and harmonic conditions as well as being able to suppress circulating, transient and fault currents in autonomous networked MGs.
