Distributed dynamic event‐triggered control for resilience‐oriented current sharing in microgrid

Abstract

AbstractDistributed dynamic event‐triggered control (ETC) method is proposed to solve the stochastic and intermittent problem caused by distributed renewable energy generation unit (DG) in microgrid (MG). It aims at reducing communication cost while achieving proportional current sharing among DGs. Firstly, the state space function model of the MG system is established, considering the unknown disturbance caused by DGs and the uncertainty caused by the constant power load (CPL). Also, the system model is transformed into the standard linear heterogeneous multiagent systems (LHMAS). Subsequently, the distributed dynamic ETC method with consensus algorithm is proposed to achieve proportional current sharing among DGs. Compared with conventional ETC approaches, the authors’ method is based on directed topology, which reduces the controller updating frequency and the communication frequency among DGs. At the same time, the Zeno behaviour can be avoided. Additionally, the authors’ method is much easier to be implemented, which can also handle the uncertain loads and CPLs. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
