Abstract
Existing scalable control methods mainly rely on a fixed block-diagonal structure for the Lyapunov matrix, potentially resulting in numerical infeasibility issues. To overcome this limitation, this article proposes a novel scalable and reliable control scheme for dc microgrids. Initially, a general model for dc microgrids is established to enhance reliability, considering scenarios involving loss of control effectiveness (LoCE) and offset faults. Subsequently, a structured free-weight matrix technique is introduced to mitigate negative coupling effects of power lines, and to address numerical infeasibility by avoiding the assumption about the Lyapunov matrix. Furthermore, the stability of the entire dc microgrid is guaranteed by checking local agent conditions, independently of power line couplings. Therefore, the proposed control scheme ensures plug-and-play scalability with varying number of agents. Finally, theoretical results are validated through numerical simulations using the MATLAB/SimPowerSystems toolbox.
