In order to improve the bus voltage robustness of distributed multi-source DC microgrid, a new cascade control method based on nonlinear virtual inertia and adaptive backstepping sliding mode is proposed. Firstly, the mathematical model of distributed multi-source DC microgrid with a buck–boost interface converter is analyzed and established. A nonlinear virtual inertia control method based on a variable droop coefficient is given by introducing the converter output voltage variation rate feedback term and a saturation function equation. Secondly, the voltage and current double closed-loop cascade controller is designed by using backstepping sliding mode control and adaptive algorithms. Finally, the system and cascade control models are built in MATLAB/Simulink for multi-case simulation. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by comparing the results with traditional control methods.
