Design of Quadratic D-Stable Fuzzy Controller for DC Microgrids With Multiple CPLs

Abstract

The DC microgrid (MG) system has several advantages over the AC one. Therefore, it recently became a preferred architecture in numerous industrial applications. Many loads in DC MGs are electronically regulated and they challenge the stability of the system due to their constant power load (CPL) behavior. This paper proposes a systematic and simple approach to design an improved state feedback controller for the power buffer that can stabilize the DC MGs with multiple CPLs. Based on the so-called sector nonlinearity approach, the nonlinear DC MG with several CPLs is exactly represented in a Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model. Then, by employing the quadratic D-stability theory, the sufficient conditions to guarantee the stability and transient performance of the closed-loop system are obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), such that the decay rate and oscillatory behavior of the closedloop DC MG system are guaranteed to lie inside a predefined region. The LMI conditions can be numerically solved by utilizing the YALMIP toolbox in the MATLAB. Finally, to illustrate the merits and implementation validity of the proposed approach, some hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) real-time simulation (RTS) results on a DC MG, which feeds two CPLs, are presented. In comparison with the state-of-the-art techniques, the RTS results indicate the simplicity, validity, and better performance of the proposed approach. According to the results, one can conclude that the proposed approach not only theoretically assures the stability but also guarantees the fast convergence and less oscillatory response of the DC MGs with multiple CPLs.

Pulsed power load effect mitigation in DC shipboard microgrids: a constrained modelpredictive approach

“…With the advent of power electronic converters and energy storage systems (ESSs) in the DC microgrids (MGs) and DC distribution power systems, significant developments have been achieved to enhance the performance and reliability of the whole of the power system [1][2][3][4]. A ship power DC system is a kind of modern DC MG where the whole of the system is self-diagnosing, self-healing, and self-reconfiguring [3].…”

Adaptive Tracking Control for Persistent Dwell-Time Switched Nonlinear Systems With Uncertainty

“…Nonlinear systems, being a kind of thoroughly common system encountered in practical engineering applications, have owned more excellent results in these years. The aforementioned outstanding results range from inverted pendulum [1], DC microgrids [2] to genetic regulatory networks (GRNs) [3]. Nevertheless, for the two former great achievements, all the ultimately investigated systems have been changed to the combination of linear systems by the T-S fuzzy logic systems.…”
