This paper develops an effective control framework for DC voltage control and power-sharing of multi-terminal DC (MTDC) grids based on an optimal power flow (OPF) procedure and the voltage-droop control. In the proposed approach, an OPF algorithm is executed at the secondary level to find optimal reference of DC voltages and active powers of all voltage-regulating converters. Then, the voltage ...

An improved control strategy for grid-connected inverters within microgrids is presented in this paper. The strategy is based on the classical P-ω and Q-V droop method. The improvement in the proposed control strategy is twofold: Firstly, the transient response of the droop controller is improved by replacing the traditional method of measuring average power, which is based on using a first ord...

The main aim is to allow the resear...

To achieve accurate reactive power sharing and voltage frequency and amplitude restoration in low-voltage microgrids, a control strategy combining an improved droop control with distributed secondary power optimization control is proposed. The active and reactive power that each distributed generator (DG) shares is calculated by extracting load information and utilizing a power sharing ratio, a...

This paper presents an accurate control scheme for active and reactive power sharing in a microgrid consisting of two distributed generation (DG) units. Each DG unit within the microgrid utilizes a structurally simple controller for adjusting its power components. The proposed method combines the droop, and average power sharing (APS) schemes to improve the accuracy of reactive power sharing co...

This paper contains a control scheme for power sharing in islanded microgrids with invertersourced distributed energy resources that combines robust control and droop control. As the load within the microgrid changes, the inverter-sourced generators share the change in the load; this paper shows that the uncontrolled load sharing among the generators will be arbitrary and methods such as droop ...

In this paper, the stability of parallel-operated inverters in the sense of boundedness is investigated. At first, the non-linear model of parallelled inverters with a generic linear or non-linear load is obtained by using the generalised dissipative Hamiltonian structure and then the robust droop controller, recently proposed in the literature for parallel operation of inverters, is implemente...

This paper addresses voltage control and load sharing in DC distribution systems. At present, DC distribution systems are utilised in, for example, telecommunication systems. Future applications could also involve distributed power systems based on renewable energy sources. The dynamic and stationary properties of voltage droop control and its load sharing abilities are investigated. The DC bus...
