Abstract
To empower flexible and scalable operations, distributed control of multi-inverter microgrids, based on classical communication networks among distributed energy resources, has attracted considerable attention. Notwithstanding this, resilience of the current schemes on classical communication makes microgrids vulnerable to cyber attacks. Inspired by quantum properties of quantum bits, in this paper, we devise a novel synchronization mechanism. We extend the synchronization framework utilized in distributed control algorithms to networks of quantum systems. By employing the architecture of quantum network, security of the protocol can be enhanced. Test results on two representative ac and dc microgrids validate the efficacy and universality of the quantum distributed control.
