This work introduces a novel dispatchable current source virtual oscillator control (dCVOC) scheme for grid-following (GFL) converters, which exhibits duality with dispatchable virtual oscillator control (dVOC) in two ways: a) the current frequency is generated through reactive power control, similar to a PLL ; b) the current magnitude reference is generated through active power control. We formally prove that our proposed control always admits a steady-state equilibrium and ensures global stability under reasonable conditions on grid and converter parameters, even when considering LVRT and current saturation constraints. Our approach avoids low-voltage transients and weak grid instability, which is not the case for conventional GFL control. The effectiveness of our proposed control is verified through high-fidelity electromagnetic transient simulations.
