Because of the rapid increase of distributed generation, active voltage regulation becomes relevant for low voltage networks. In this paper, several power electronic voltage regulation approaches are presented and compared to each other through a Monte-Carlo-based network analysis. The focus of the investigation is on a series voltage regulator, for which simulation results and experimental results of a prototype are shown.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
