Abstract

The bidirectional converter in AC / DC hybrid microgrid is an important link to balance the power on both sides of AC and DC, Its control method is extremely important. This paper proposes an improved droop control strategy for bidirectional converter using DC-side power amount control. This control can autonomously and smoothly switch in rectifyer, inverter and idle modes. Utilizing DC-side power control avoids normalized calculations. Strategy meets two modes of island and grid connection, eliminating the need for multiple control strategy switches. Simulation results show that the DC bus voltage and AC frequency are near the rated value, which guarantees the stable operation of the AC-DC hybrid microgrid.
