Consensus-based Distributed Bus Voltage Control of in DC Microgrid Clusters

Abstract

This paper proposes a consensus-based voltage control strategy for the bus of a DC microgrid cluster. Firstly, the closed-loop dynamics of a DC microgrid cluster bus voltage control system based on the consensus distributed control architecture is described, taking into full account the information exchange delay among the microgrid subsystems. Secondly, by constructing the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, the voltage control system asymptotic stability criteria under parameter uncertainties are rigorously derived, and the corresponding controller design criteria are obtained. Simulation results show that compared with the centralized control schemes, the proposed consensus distributed control method can reduce the average settling time by 24.39% and the average integral of absolute error of aggregate deviations by 23.92%.
