Abstract

Based on the hierarchical control structure in islanded Micro-Grid (MG) systems, the coupling/tradeoff effects in different control levels are analyzed in details. In the primary level, analyses of the coupling effects among droop control gains, line impedance differences, output reactive power and voltage magnitudes are provided specifically. In the secondary level, the tradeoffs between accurate reactive power sharing and voltage magnitudes regulation are further detailed. The analysis results can provide a guideline for the design of MG structure and its control parameters. In addition, a novel containment-based controller is proposed to control the voltage into a reasonable range which is the first time to apply this algorithm in MG. Furthermore, dynamic-consensus-based controller is used to guarantee accurate reactive power sharing. The combination of controllers offers a coordinated distributed operation and enhanced system performance. Finally, experimental results are shown to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
