Based on the concept of cyber physical system (CPS), a novel hierarchical control strategy for islanded microgrids is proposed in this paper. The control structure consists of physical and cyber layers. It’s used to improve the control effect on the output voltages and frequency by droop control of distributed energy resources (DERs), share the reactive power among DERs more reasonably and solve the problem of circumfluence in microgrids. The specific designs are as follows: to improve the control effect on voltages and frequency of DERs, an event-trigger mechanism is designed in the physical layer. When the trigger conditions in the mechanism aren’t met, only the droop control (i.e., primary control) is used in the controlled system. Otherwise, a virtual leader-following consensus control method is used in the cyber layer to accomplish the secondary control on DERs; to share the reactive power reasonably, a method of double virtual impedance is designed in the physical layer to adjust the output reactive power of DERs; to suppress circumfluence, a method combined with consensus control without leader and sliding mode control (SMC) is used in the cyber layer. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed hierarchical control strategy is confirmed by simulation results.

<a name="_Hlk16093850"></a><span>Droop control technique is one of the renowned techniques which does not need any communication connection between Distibuted Generations (DG), hence the cost, as well as the reliability of the microgrid (MG) system can be reduced. MG is operated in two modes as their functionality and structure is concern. These are the grid connected or islanded (stand-alone) mode. DGs operating values may have different ratings of voltage, power and line impedance. The power sharing in these operatng conditions is not shared equally by all DGs connected in the system and also during load changes conditions power sharing accuracy is difficult to achieve. In this paper, a droop power control is used to balance the power sharing in islanded mode. As from the results, the active power sharing is equally shared from all DGs connected in the microgrid system. However, reactive power sharing accuracy always disturbed when there is impedance mismatch among the different DG feeders. The accuracy is done by monitoring the effects when load changes for low load to high load or vice versa. The Proportional Integral (PI) controller has been used to minimize the reactive power errors. At the end, the power droop is capable to share power accurately and results prove the stability and reliability of the proposed technique.</span>

Grid Connected Inverter

This paper presents an improved droop control strategy for grid-connected inverter power stability and power quality under distorted with consideration of grid fluctuation and inter-harmonics. An instantaneous frequency without PLL and amplitude of capacitor voltage feed-forward control strategy is given to power stability control, meanwhile a grid current feedback control is given by an incomplete derivation with a high-pass filter, so that the harmonics and inter-harmonics current can be suppressed. These approaches can provide both good active and reactive power dynamic response under fluctuation of frequency, and rejection ability against harmonic and inter-harmonic voltage. Based on model of inverter, the proposed control strategies are designed in detail. Simulations and experiments are present to validate the effectiveness of proposed method.
